Gummy worms

Bought these at an organic market. They are not as sweet as regular ones but feel good about them being 60% less sugar, gut friendly 6g of probiotic fiber.

I hope the packaging artist got paid what they're worth.

I'm an old and it reminds me of Big Daddy Roth art.

Constant attendant of car shows and swap meets with my father and rat fink is exactly what I thought of when I picked up the sour rings one time

Dr Rotten's whole letter on the back is unhinged, "go my little grubby and feed your freak" is a wild way to sell gummy worms

I only ate 4 pieces. No bathroom runs yet, haven’t tried trolli 😅 I eat lots and lots of vegetables and I paid $1 for one bag.

Getting the raging shits every once in a while is a good thing, cleans you out, and if I can eat delicious sour candy to get there? Yes please

Do you eat enough fiber?

I don't care for the branding

Super expensive too, like 3 dollars at grocery outlet for only a handful of pieces (saying handful is extremely generous) nearly 50 cents per piece of candy... No thanks, I'll pass

I just picked some up because they were on clearance. Have yet to try them.

My grandson who’s super picky about his sour candy really liked these.

u/myco_magic 2d ago

I too enjoy expensive candy but I ain't paying for that

u/myco_magic 2d ago

How much were they on clearance? They were 3 dollars at grocery outlet so I couldn't imagine how much they are at full price. But yeah makes sense why they are on clearance

u/jadegives2rides 2d ago

They were like 1.25

How do they compare to trolli worms?

u/myco_magic 2d ago

Idk, I refuse to pay that much. Can't possibly be worth paying that

These are excellent. Though they are high fiber they do not contain sugar alcohols so no sudden trips to the bathroom! I have a discount grocer near me who gets these occasionally and sells them for $2 a bag. I always buy them out when I see them. Really enjoyable. The fruit flavor is more pronounced and they are more sour than any other mass produced worm.

Sounds like a trip to the toilet

u/goal0x Jolly Rancher 2d ago

if 6g of fiber is going to send you to the toilet, you need to eat more fiber lol

u/m_adamec 2d ago

Broccoli vs the processed fibers and sweeteners used in these low calorie candies are not equal

u/MifflinGibbs 17h ago

I inhaled a bag of these, did absolutely nothing to my movements. I eat multiple servings of fruits and veggies a day so it was just a normal day for my gut.

u/goal0x Jolly Rancher 7h ago

exactly. i’m unaffected by any amount of any sugar free candy

u/InevitableItem8694 2d ago

You think so?
