Abstract

A chewing gum composition is provided comprising a water soluble gum portion and a water insoluble gum base portion including an elastic protein-based polymer. Additionally, a method for creating an environmentally acceptable chewing gum is provided comprising the steps of creating a chewing gum base that includes a sufficient amount of elastic protein-based polymer to create a resultant chewing gum that is more environmentally acceptable than a chewing gum without elastic protein-based polymer, and adding to the chewing gum base a water soluble portion to create the resultant chewing gum.
