Hi-Chew – Green Apple Retro Edition
There’s nothing special about these beyond the classic packaging from 1975. I can see the appeal of the clean, classic packaging for sure. But whether it’s worth getting this just for that, probably not. Unless…

The Natural Confectionery Co. – Sour Squirms
Usually when I think of sour worms, I think of really soft, gummy worms. They sort of flop around and don’t hold together very well. These seem to have a lot more rigidity to them,…
Frisk Neo – Pineapple Soda Mint
I didn’t realize until I took a closer look, but this isn’t JUST pineapple. It’s pineapple soda. I guess it makes sense now why the top is yellow and the bottom is blue. This may…

I have seen Tough around for quite a long time, but it wasn’t until last year that I took the plunge and decided to try them. The marketing for them always seemed way over the…
Katjes – Tropen-Früchte
I’m not a big tropical fruit flavour type of person, but I don’t dislike it enough to avoid it altogether. That’s convenient for me, because I saw the packaging on this and was instantly drawn…
