In the Valley of Bonbons, those who are naughty venture over to a row of low bushes where grow all kinds of chewing gums and pick them. For this, they are punished.
"But I thought they had no teeth," said Dot.
As explained by the Candy Man: "Their gums are hardened by long use, so they are able to chew as well as you do. This gum-chewing is a very disagreeable habit, as doubtless you know; so when anyone is discovered indulging in this habit, we make them come out here to the mountains and sit on the rocks for seven days and seven nights. It is a terrible disgrace, of course; but all naughtiness must be punished in some way."
