AlbaneseWorld's Best Zero Sugar, 12 Flavor Gummi Bears, Candy, 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 12), Individually Wrapped Soft & Chewy Candy Snacks

The most delicious sugar free gummies in the world!!!

I bought this as a fun prank to try to get all my friends to eat the sugar free gummy bears because we've all heard the stories....Anyway for science, I decided to eat it to see how good the prank would on my own, I was working late and it was delivered that afternoon and a midnight snack sounded great! So I'm sitting at my desk and pound the first package down.. and I wait.. Nothing happens that night, and I don't feel anything when I wake up either other than a little extra gassy, but I'm a gassy dude so don't think too much of it.So I get to work and start to think that the reputation of sugar free gummy bears was a lie since it had been about 8 hours since I ate them originally, and nothing happened. So, thinking the prank is a bust, I eat a SECOND package because gummy bears are great, especially Albanese gummy bears.Then the farts hit! These aren't the farts that you say "excuse me" and everyone maybe giggles and moves on with their lives either. These aren't even the SBD's, these are the movers and the shakers of farts! My office and chair smell like these farts 3 days later, and I've tried air fresheners and candles everyday. I feel like I'm sitting in my own smelly butt.Then in the middle of a meeting, my butt gives me the tingle! Like Spiderman sensing a car being thrown at him, my butt senses the flow of an unstoppable river! I turned off my camera in the middle of a sentence and muted my mic and barely made it to the toilet before the entire history of everything I've ever eaten began rolling out of my colon. I spent all of that meeting and the next meeting optimizing my route from my office to the bathroom. When no more was coming out, I began to think it might end soon, but soon my underwear learned why you never trust a fart. Since this moment, I began to hold a strict no fart policy!Anyway, if you are like me and feel the need to perform your own science experiment. I just want you to know, that you are not alone and you are forever in my heart.Conclusion: Trust all the stories you've read and heard!

Dear lord, deliver me! 💀🤣This is not candy. It should be for purchase as a "behind the counter drug". I am shocked that the Fda has approved this for use in food.I purchased these for a friend who was on a diet and for myself. I've had Stevia and Erythritol candy and never had an upset stomach. I use Xylitol daily in my coffee and don't have issues.But these looked good. I got them without looking at the reviews, because they're candy. Why would I need to look at reviews? I saw the little warning and figured "I'm not going to eat the whole box so I'm probably safe. They put those labels on for people who over do it."When they got in I opened up the box, ripped one open and ate a pouch. A pouch is three servings apparently. After about and hour. I experienced the most violent amount of gas in my life until about midnight. The pain in my stomach had me in bed praying 🙏. No diarrhea though.The next day I was talking to a friend at work about my experience and she let me know about the Haribo version and that the reviews are the funniest thing around. Apparently Maltitol stomach issues is a known thing.I figured, I paid $20 for this so let me see if it's a serving size issue. Went back the next day and took the recommended serving. 3 hours later... 💨💩.Do they taste good? YesShould you buy them? No.Should the fda remove this product from being used as a sweetener in foods? Yes. Ban it.

TLDR: Pricey but the best sugar free gummies I have ever had, and honestly, one of the best gummy bears I've ever had, normal sugar included! The ONLY con is the cost, but that's why they taste so good - they're not cheaply made.-----First of all, they taste amazing. I swear, you could put them in front of anyone and they'd never know these weren't anything other than really good gummy bears.Secondly... (probably a little TMI coming, so fair warning) but, I deal with pretty bad constipation normally, so I wasn't too worried about the gastric side effect some people have when consuming these or products made with these sugar substitutes in general.I was partly right. As I predicted, they didn't give me diarrhea or really change my bowel movements in any way. Still just as constipated haha. The only side effect I got was increased gas. That said, I'm talking *extremely* increased gas, lol. TBH I'm just not a gaseous person in general; I don't fart much at all. But when I eat them, these things have me farting *constantly*. And of course the more I eat in a short period of time, the worse the gas gets. Thankfully there's no smell and it's just me on my own, so I don't particularly care. It doesn't really affect my day much, but it can be annoying if you're out or with people. I'd suggest that if you know you're going out that day, maybe just don't eat them that day, or only take a couple. (If you're more sensitive to these than I am though, just don't take any, lol.)Anyway, that's it, really. I definitely recommend these. I mean, I don't even care about the sugar free part of it - they're that good that I'd still recommend them to any gummy bear-lovers. Now that I've had these, I'm definitely going to try a few others they have.When I ordered these, I also ordered sugar free gummies from another brand that also has near 5 stars. I tried those first and hated them so I was really worried these would suck too, but nope. It's good though, now I know which company I'm going to stick with, haha. Farts be damned! 9/10, will do again.As I said in the beginning though, it does have ONE con, and that's its quite high cost for such small bags. But then again, that's why you get the quality with these, rather than the crap from the others.
