In the Boing Boing store, a bubblegum-based label-writer. Feed it with any standard bubblegum tape, and stamp your message into it before you begin your chewy chewing for choosy chewers.

Bubble Roll Message Maker

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

       This was my thought (and what I came to the comments to find out).  Is there really a ‘standard bugglegum tape’?  If there is I haven’t seen it.

    Refillable? Better yet, refillable with Warheads Sour Rips Rolls?
