Nothing, really. It's food-grade plastic and it will come out the other end. Now, what happens if you seal high-pressure hydraulic oil systems with it? Let's find out! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1RYVSmuOmc
Happened to me by accident as a kid and I remember asking some cousins to do the same and they experienced the same thing. Unless gums are made differently, it should still work.

Why is the pressure gauge full of liquid? (Presumably water? but why / how?) Quite the talker there :) Edit: Got it Shog9, thanks!
I'm not sure why, but this makes me think of the time before ubiquitous internet, when the answers to questions like this one were much harder to come by.
Try eating a chocolate while chewing bubble gum. The gum will soon dissolve / break into tiny threads/pieces. It might be rough experience and you may feel like spitting it out.

As a matter of fact, it is a perfect solution for getting out gum stuck in your hair.
It just dissolves.
Another unexpected solvent I found was when I was a teenager working on a gasoline engine. Don't pour gasoline in a styrofoam cup. The gas went right through the cup, like it wasn't even there. Ate a hole anywhere it touched.

the fat interacts with the gum base and emulsifiers. the fat also coats the components in a way that reduces likelihood of re-amalgamation.
