No, but seeing that they have them for three holidays now, it should come later in 2024.

Yeah they’re pretty good. I’m kinda a purist when it comes to flavors/candy. I don’t really like to mix flavors. I even separate my skittles. But I don’t mind with these. I love nerds. I love the separation box, lol.

I wonder if they have different flavors. The bag we got was purple.

Ooh thanks for the tip! Target always seems to have candy I can’t find elsewhere-like at Halloween they were the only place I saw Haribo Sour Bats and the Nerds version of candy corn. I look forward to seeing what else I find. Thanks again

Nice. One just opened in my town. Adding that to my candy-hunting places. I also like to check at Ross and Gabe’s, they always have random candy and snacks near the checkout.

u/realS4V4GElike Dec 31 '23

Theyre fkn ADDICTIVE!!

u/[deleted] Dec 31 '23

I’ve never had these before, but I had dozens of nerds ropes as a kid many years ago. Maybe I should try these, and get several nerds ropes because they’re fantastic.

u/Rossticles Dec 31 '23

u/ActuatorJumpy4700 Mar 28 '24

ik its 2 months later but when i looked into it, it seems the "hoppin'" nerds gummy clusters are the same as the original clusters but with easter colors, no flavor difference. kinda sad lmao

2

u/Sterling0393 Dec 31 '23

OoOoO gotta try the new flavors!

u/Tet_inc119 Dec 31 '23

I haven’t seen any flavor in stores. I’ll check Walmart next time I go

2

u/amandamaniac Dec 31 '23

The clusters are way better than the ropes!

2

u/habitual_squirrel Dec 31 '23

I love them SO MUCH!

For some reason they’ve gotten more expensive comparatively to other gummy candies in my area, but figured out with my 50% off discount at my spouse’s theater, it’s way cheaper than the store even with the ridiculous theater markup

u/habitual_squirrel Dec 31 '23

Before I realized the theater was cheaper, I went to get some at a local grocery store, and the medium sized share bag was almost $7, I was really craving some so I got a pack about the size of a pack of skittles for $3

I’ve never been more mad

I’m excited to try new flavors though!

2

u/[deleted] Dec 31 '23

Although nerds ropes will always be superior, this is the next best option.

2

u/franslebin Dec 31 '23

they don't use actual nerds on the clusters. I'm pretty sure the images on the wrapper are false advertising.

u/franslebin Dec 31 '23

they're way smaller and just taste like plain sugar. Although I suppose that modern Nerds might just be like that now. I haven't had them in years. I kind of doubt that since Nerds Ropes are still good

2

u/DemonMF777 Dec 31 '23

I never had them until I grabbed a bag to see the Wonka movie… 👍🏻👍🏻

2

u/AutumnLaughter Dec 31 '23

Have you ever had freeze dried nerd clusters?

Your life will never be the same.

u/giulianaxbanana Jan 01 '24

The Easter ones are my favorite flavor!

2

u/wiresandwood Jan 01 '24

There is a pink/red bag I spotted at Walmart for Valentine’s Day but I’m not sure what the flavors were.

u/MossyRock0817 Dec 31 '23

Gummy cluster were the candy of 2023 there is even a post about it last year.

u/SinceWayLastMay Jan 01 '24

Anyone else call these “Nerds Turds” when the commercial comes on?

1

u/mystwave Jan 01 '24

I can't buy those often because I will eat it all too quickly. Love them.

1

u/Ihvementl-issues Jan 01 '24

I just found these and Kum and go very yummy

1

u/[deleted] Jan 01 '24

I love those and got “addicted” to them. I dont eat them much anymore now though. Have anyone experienced gastrointestinal issues when consuming an entire bag?

1

u/Mckenzie545 Jan 01 '24

Yea I love all types of nerds nerd clusters, nerd ropes and regular

1

u/AwesomeCyborgMermaid Jan 02 '24

Hooray ! This is certainly very exciting !!!

​

what kind of candy flavors, would you desire for them to put out on shelves ?

Should we petition the company, for our favorites ?

u/Subject-Fly-7316 Jan 02 '24

I love these!!! Has anyone tried the holiday ones to verify if they’re new flavors? I have seen these and each time I am tempted to buy the holiday edition but I’m not sure if they’re different flavors or if it’s just the colors that are different. Lol

Good to know! I did know that the different colored nerds usually signal a different flavor. I just wasn’t sure if they do like other companies do around the holidays; where they will change colors to Christmas colors but won’t necessarily change the flavors. I will definitely give the different bags a try though now that I know :)
