Depends of the flavour your "sister" wants. In Argentina there are Bubblicious, Spearmint, no Juicy Fruit so that would be cool, there is Trident but why dont you take a sample, gum is not expensive and you can take some of those Trident with a fruity liquid center, some regular stick gum (in different flavours) and those new gum cubes which I havent ever seen in Argentina!

I also brought gum for my pals in BA, anything by Wrighley´s is good because it´s hard to get 8you can get it though - on the free shop on the ships to Uruguay). Also the cubes it´s true you can´t find them in Argentina or Uruguay. But I found that actually any candy that was packaged in a tin box (like altoids, also chocolate covered Altoids, etc) they´d love especially as there is no such packaging there. And those little tin boxes are a souvenir in itself long after gum or candy are gone. So my advice is: get some of the tin boxes! Plus they look more expensive and exclusive than a pack of Juicy Fruit. Good luck and have a great time there :-)

Orbit gum. Last time I went to Argentina, I offered some Orbit gum to my friend and she thought the pack was cool. She said it was different and she had never seen that. So I guess Orbit or another brand that has similar packaging.
