PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a mastication function evaluation material capable of evaluating a mastication function with high reliability and easily at low cost and a production method of the mastication function evaluation material and a mastication function evaluation method.SOLUTION: A mastication function evaluation material, which comprises a chewing gum plate and grains of carnauba wax whose average grain diameter is 800-3000 &mum and the rate of the total projected area of the grains to the unit area of the chewing gum plate in the plate thickness direction (project area rate) is 1-30%, is chewed and mastication number of times until the chewable texture of the grains runs out through the mastication is measured to get a mastication function evaluation value.
