Fruit Stripe Zebra Gummy Candy, 3.25oz

Okay so I read the review. "THE GHOST OF FLAVORS PAST" In kindness to the best review of all amazon, the top voted one! Thank you sweet human. I read this and knew, 7 dollars is a lot but for the experience of chewing a flavorless faux eraser, I wanted! So I got them. These will get a 5 star because it is not the sellers fault, it's the product. :) Don't buy them if you are looking for Haribo, just go and buy those or golden bears...whatever your flavor, not this. The experience is worth it, if you wanna chew something as if it were gum, but the wrong texture, shape, and chew. Thank you seller for adding the no melt pack and double packaging this to get to me safe!! You are the best. Thank you for your business. You are doing it right.

First of all, the shipment was running late, and as you can see the packaging was really abused when I finally received it. The size of the product is much smaller than expected (smaller than a pack of PopTarts) and was definitely over-priced. All of this I could've forgiven if the candy lived up to expectation. But it didn't. AT ALL. This was simply traditional gummy candies with little to no flavor at all. The worst of it is that it promised the beloved fruit stripe flavor and let me down with a crash. Recommend DO NOT BUY.

These candies were just okay. There wasn’t much flavor… just like the gum.

Look, I did not go into this expecting a great experience. This is Fruit Stripe, after all. The gum that loses flavor faster than my parents lost their faith in me. That's pretty darn quick. I knew it was going to be bad, I just wanted to know HOW bad and WHAT KIND of bad. This was something I chose to do to myself for science. Or something. There are three flavors but not as listed on the package. You get kind of lemon if you inhale sharply while chewing vigorously, vaguely red, and the rubber from your childhood training wheels if gnawed on while thinking about an orange push pop. So I guess kind of nostalgic in a sense. The aftertaste is both bitter and a void of flavor at the same time. And it lingers. You really get the sense of having un-eaten something or maybe moreso having eaten something that should have been inedible. The scent is stronger than the flavor and the flavor is stronger in the burp that rumbles up from your confused stomach after eating a few. The confusion, I'm thinking, stems from the fact that from texture to flavor, these things do indeed seem like something not meant to be eaten. They're not food. Maybe rebranded, scented erasers. The kind that you stick on your perfectly good eraser and they don't erase but they're cute. My bestie suggested they're made from the recycled, prechewed Fruit Stripe gum. It seems plausible. I did not have the time to chew one long enough to see if the gummy candy would actually break down. It's very chewy and bouncy and until further testing is done, I'm considering it indestructible. The most bizarre thing about this candy, though, if it's legal to call it such... is that if you cram one of each flavor into your mouth it somehow tastes like less. The vague ghosts of flavors cancel each other out and you're left with a mouthful of taste-null rubber questioning your life choices. Do I regret buying these? No. Like I said, it was an experience. One I inflicted on my best friend along with me so we got to bond over the confusion and revulsion. I definitely got my money's worth in that regard. I would not recommend these as a tasty treat, but if you're in the market for more questions than any bag of gummy candy could possibly have answers, go ahead an snag yourself some of these. Good luck.

I was so excited to try these, I could taste it before I bought it and it tasted like the 80s! Now on the real tho, it doesn't taste like the gum as I hoped. The flavor is amazing, has the consistency of a habro gummy bear, and the flavor lasts longer than the gum ever did. They are tasty, more flavor than any other gummy bear but overpriced for the size of the packet

This was awsome! Honestly the best part was how long the flavor last comparatively to the gum version. Im glad ut asked for a review cause now I'm buying more.

Thr best part of fruit stripe gum is the flavor so all they needed to do was make it in gummy form so you can actually eat it. But the flavor is so bland it tastes just like fruit stripe gum after its been chewed for ten minutes. It even has that chalk type feel to it when you first eat it. Very disappointing and not worth the price. Cheaper to just buy the gum and spit it out after a few chews.

The bag if quite small for what you pay and the gummies were extremely sticky. They stuck to my fingers and left me needs to wash my hands. I felt like a 3 yr old who just ate a sucker. The taste is ok but the texture is off.
