The history of chewing gum continued as Native Americans introduced it to European settlers. Chewing gum hit the market after Santa Anna brought a case of chicle(糖膠樹脂) from Mexico to New York. Santa Anna gave some to the parttime inventor Thomas Adams Thomas Adams changed the gum and marketed it as a candy. The invention took off and was known as Chiclets. In 1900 Frank Fleer coate chewing gum with sugar, and in 1906 Blibber Blubber was invented, but never made it to market. Blibber Blubber was too sticky and it was also too difficult to remove the burst bubble(破了的泡泡) from one39。s skin without using some special tools. A history of bubblegum just wouldn39。t be plete without mentioning the gumball machine, which popularized gum. The first gumball machine came onto the scene in 1907 and sold sugarcoated chewing gum. However, it wasn39。t until 1928 that bubblegum was created. Walter Diemer, working for Frank Fleer39。s gum pany, discovered bubblegum by accident while experimenting in the lab during his breaks. The gum was named Dubble Bubble. Pink was the only color which could be used at the time, and Dubble Bubble has remained pink ever since. According to the International Chewing Gum Association,during WWII Dubble Bubble was handed out by US military members as gifts, thereby spreading its popularity among the peoples of Europe, Africa, and Asia. And in the 1930s he first bubblegum cards appeared. the pictures changed from war heroes to Wild West figures to professional athletes. Bubblegum has been popular ever since, especially among children, thanks to its inventive shapes, and sugary flavors, from original bubblegum to a yardstick of fruity bubblegum.（1）How did Thomas Adams deal with the chicle that Santa Anna gave to him?
