Abstract: An electronic game includes a device that is held or worn by a player, and a housing. The device includes an emitter that emits a signal in response to player input. The housing includes a controller and a detector that detects the signal from the emitter and provides an electrical signal to the controller indicating the location of the emitter. The housing further includes a magazine for storing objects, and a fire mechanism coupled to the magazine and controlled by the controller to fire a stored object at the implement when the controller determines that the detector has detected an emitted signal from the emitter.

Abstract: A comestible containing sweetening amounts of Alitame is disclosed, into which is incorporated an effective amount of hydrogenated starch hydrolysate syrup, and/or from which is excluded glycerine, to stabilize the Alitame against decomposition during storage such that after storage at 85.degree. F. for eight weeks, at least 40% of the originally present Alitame has not degraded into non-sweetening decomposition products.

Abstract: Chewing gums incorporating Alitame in a manner to delay its release, separate the Alitame from gum ingredients which cause the Alitame to degrade, or both, are disclosed. The Alitame may be coated by an encapsulating agent applied by spray drying, fluid bed coating, fiber spinning or coaservation techniques, agglomeration, and fixation or entrapment/absorption plus encapsulation or agglomeration. Also, the Alitame may be incorporated in a physically separate part of the gum, such as a center fill, a part of a rolling compound, or a part of a panning composition.
