History. Ice Breakers was launched in the 1990s by Nabisco Holding's LifeSaver division in order to compete with similar mint brands. Hershey purchased Ice Breakers from Nabisco in 2000 for $135 million in a deal that also included mint and chewing gum brands like Bubble Yum, Breath Savers, CareFree and Stickfree.

The Hershey Company family The ICE BREAKERS Brand became part of The Hershey Company family in 2000, along with BREATH SAVERS Mints, BUBBLE YUM Bubble Gum and others purchased from Nabisco Holdings. In addition to mints, Hershey expanded the refreshing ICE BREAKERS options to include chewing gum, fruit-flavored mints and sour candies.

It was purchased by VF Corporation, a NYSE listed entity in 2018. Icebreaker was conceived and designed around the philosophy of sustainability, using natural fibres, environmental and social ethics, and animal welfare.

In this metaphor, the "ice" is the tension caused by being in an unfamiliar situation or meeting new people. The original icebreaker was literally that: a ship designed to break through ice in frozen channels at sea.

It was my favorite gum, until I discovered that the source of gelatin is pork, I suggest to replace it with a plant based gelatin. I did not know it was pork based. Thank you for letting me know.

Ice breakers can be an effective way of starting a training session or team-building event. As interactive and often fun sessions run before the main proceedings, they help people get to know each other and buy into the purpose of the event.

The popularity of mints took off in the early 20th century, with the advent of mass urbanization and mass marketing. Advertising for mints focused on their convenience, and on the socially isolating effects of bad breath. These advertisements targeted young people generally, and young women particularly.

Icebreakers are expensive to build and very expensive in fuel to run (sometimes powered by gas turbines or a nuclear generator). They are relatively uncomfortable to travel in on the open sea. All ships designed for the ice have rounded keels with no protuberances.
