To provide chewing gum preventing water-absorbing components from adsorbing water in chewing gum dough to deteriorate the whole chewing gum and preventing slightly soluble components from being adsorbed in the chewing gum dough to hardly melt in the mouth, and to provide a method for preventing component adsorption.

The chewing gum contains at least either water absorbing components or slightly soluble components in water. The components are formed together with powdery gum. The method for preventing component adsorption comprises forming the chewing gum by powder mixing of the water-absorbing components or slightly soluble components in water with powdery gum.
