The ice I understand ... what do you do with the peanut butter? Make a sandwich?

The ice makes the gum hard/brittle ... then what?

Tips from BumperPlugs.com.....

How can I remove gum from carpet or hair?

For removal from a carpet, harden it with an ice cube and scrape it out with a dull knife. Then, after most of the mass is out, you can try a warm sponge dipped in water and dishwashing liquid to gently rub out the remaining bits. For getting it out of hair, try working peanut butter or a little cooking oil into the hair and combing it out. You can even treat your hair like carpet by hardening the gum with ice and then cracking it off.
