The Resume

    (September 2001- )
    Full name is Vanessa Branch
    Portrays Vanessa, the spokesperson for the Orbit Institute
    Portrays Paige on 'Port Charles' and appears in 'John Q (2002),' 'Good Advice (2001)' and 'The Cell (2000)'
    Orbit is sugarfree gum and comes in peppermint and spearmint
    The gum is manufactured by Wrigley

Why she might be annoying:

    The European version of Orbit was kosher when manufactured in the plant in Paris, but during the plant move to London, the gum was manufactured in an undisclosed location and lost it's kosher certification.
    The gum promises to give a 'brushed clean' feeling, so the Orbit institute hurls dirt at the subject, while Vanessa visits 'the scene of the grime.'
    Although the product claims it started in September 2001, it actually can be traced back to World War II. It was the lowest of the Wrigley gum line. Due to rationed ingredients it was sold to Americans, while the superior line of gums went to the G.I.s.
    It was available as a stick gum in 1978 and now it is a chiclet gum.

Why she might not be annoying:

    Vanessa has the girl next door clean cut look.
    The commercials seem to have a European flair like Mentos.
