Up to you. I wouldn't.

In a lot of gum there's generally less than 5 calories per piece, so I would consider it negligible unless you are REALLY trying to be exact.

i never thought of it, till i caught myself chewing ang logging in on mfp at the same time haha
well if its 10 calories, than its not that important. thanks!

I figure I probably burn more than the 5 cals in the gum just by chewing it! ;-)

Nope, You definitely burn more than 5 calories while chewing it..I wouldn't bother with it.
