Not the same as the previous recipe šŸ˜”

These gummies used to be the cream of the crop. Up there with Albanese, Haribo, and the like. Now, the texture is too firm and they are overly sticky due to the ā€œreal fruit juiceā€ or whatever else they’ve changed in the recipe. These used to be hands down one of my favorite gummy brands to buy. Now I intentionally avoid them for other competitors who haven’t sold out. Please, revert to the previous recipe. We don’t buy gummi bears for the health benefits, we buy them because they taste delicious and they make us happy.

Current recipe is disgusting.

I agree with the other reviews, now that the recipe has changed they are essentially inedible. It's like eating gelatinized balls of corn syrup with weird off-flavor fruits. They don't taste right anymore, they are sickeningly sweet, and ridiculously sticky and gooey and are an absolute mess to eat for something that is supposed to be finger food. I shouldn't need to pry my gummy bears out of the bag with a wooden spoon to have them come out in one massive sticky clump that honestly tastes quite disgusting compared to the previous recipe.

Sticky Mess

I've bought the family size Gummy Bears for years but over the last several months I have finally made the decision to not buy them any more. They have become more and more, stickier and stickier to the point of my fingers ending up as one big sticky mess. They did not used to be be this way - . viscous: sticky, gluey and syrupy. So if something is viscous, you usually don't want to stick your fingers in it. I won't be buying these (one of my favorites) again due to whatever it is you've done to change my go to snack.

Not the same/ different in a bad way

Sticky, messy, not worth the calories!!! New recipe is so disappointing if you are used to the precious one, it’s like having Covid eating these New bears when your taste buds are off. Absolutely awful and you can’t touch ANYTHING while eating them because they are so sticky and messy!!!! Not exaggerating. I had to scoop them out the bag with a spoon because they were all sticky and stuck together practically.

These things are wet! beware of sticky fingers.

Bummer that these are wet. I guess they say Juicy and they mean it. Not for me.
