'''Winterfresh''' is a [[wintergreen]] flavored variety of [[chewing gum]] made by the [[Wrigley Company|Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company]]. Introduced in the United States in 1994, it was the largest-selling sugar gum in the market by the end of the decade.<ref>{{Cite web |last=James F. |first=Peltz |date=November 19, 1999 |title=Jump in Wrigley’s Stock Is More to Investors’ Tastes |url=https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1999-nov-19-fi-35198-story.html |access-date=July 2, 2025 |website=Los Angeles Times}}</ref> It was marketed as an alternative to the [[Big Red (gum)|Big Red]] brand. [[Extra gum]], a sugarless gum, introduced a Winterfresh flavor in 1988,<ref>{{Citation|title=Extra Sugar Free Gum - Commercial - 1988| date=21 November 2011 |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-taFU82Mt6U |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211222/-taFU82Mt6U |archive-date=2021-12-22 |url-status=live|language=en|access-date=2021-05-05}}{{cbignore}}</ref> while [[Freedent]] introduced a Winterfresh flavor around the same time the Winterfresh brand gum was introduced.

Each three-[[gram]] stick contains 10 [[calorie]]s (42 [[kilojoule]]s).

== Cool Breath Power commercials ==
From 2006 to 2008, Winterfresh aired a series commercials called "Cool Breath Power", as most of them were "Attraction Chronicles". These commercials were targeted at the teen demographic, and typically featured a narrator giving bizarre love advice in a bizarre world. Its director, illustrator, and animator was Karl Ackermann and [[Newgrounds]] animator LoveMaestro21, done in an old style of [[Adobe Flash|Macromedia Flash]] by Milky Elephant, with some people believing that the animation is very similar to early seasons of ''[[South Park]]''. 

Its creative directors were Bobby Pawar, [[Miles Turpin]], and [[Sean Donohue]], who also is the art director of the commercials.
