Chewing gum

Chewing gum was a flavored Earth concoction, which Humans chewed but did not consume.

In the 20th century, a stick of gum was usually included with a pack of baseball cards - the 24th Century trader Kivas Fajo, whose massive collection of artifacts included a 1962 Roger Maris card, made sure that its display case emitted the same scent as the gum originally packaged with it. 

An antique shop in 1986 San Francisco contained a number of chewing gum vending machines.

One of the lots sold in an auction held by Quark in 2373 was a mint condition 1951 Willie Mays rookie baseball card from Earth, but it did not come with the original packaging or chewing gum.
