Tragically addictive, August 10, 2009
This review is from: Haribo Gummi Candy, Raspberries, 5-Pound Bag (Grocery)
This is my sixth or seventh Haribo bulk item purchased at Amazon, and so far, perhaps my favorite. The peaches and the cherry gummies would be a close second. I would hardly call the flavor anything like actual raspberries, but like most Haribo confections, it's still very fragrant and pleasant---not at all chemical/noxious/phony. The main problem with these raspberries is their small size and interesting chewy/crunchy texture tempts you to come back for more. Before you know it, you've finished the bag, ordered three more, and are seeing an endocrinologist regularly for acute pancreatic failure---basically the highest compliment you can pay to a confectionery company. Way to go, Haribo!

Raspberry addict, March 2, 2008
This review is from: Haribo Gummi Candy, Raspberries, 5-Pound Bag (Grocery)
I was so glad to find these raspberry candies available on Amazon. They are rarely found in any stores near me. They have always been a favorite of mine. I suck off the little dots and then chew the jelly center, a double treat! They came quickly and I will definitely order them again. Thanks Amazon

Gummy, but not TOO Gummy, November 8, 2006
This review is from: Haribo Gummi Candy, Raspberries, 5-Pound Bag (Grocery)
No, I'm not bored or hungry at the moment, I'm trying to avoid doing our shIpping, so I'm shOpping instead.
I am not only over the age of 13 (as if someone under 13 would admit it and not check the box), I'm WELL over the age of 13 and after a lifetime of trying to pull my teeth out on gummies and beef jerky (I miss that stuff), I've almost succeeded...so no more true gummies.
I love these things because:
1. They're not chocolate (I love chocolate but I can't have chocolate)
2. They're not too hard
3. The little non pareils are fun and crunchy, but don't stick in my teeth
4. They're fat-free and if you used to own a gallbladder that was on a recall list, you can't have any fat :)
5. They're cheap here. And I got 10 bucks off by ordering these along with stuff I really did need. (These are over $5.00 a pound in the supermarket and the last time I asked my husband to 'bring me a bag of those rasberry things', he spent $23.00 on them! Someone needs to invent some sort of force-field to keep men out of the candy aisle!)
So, I ordered them. I'll eventually eat them all..I am going to seal them in 1/2 pound FoodSaver bags and I figure they'll last a year ;)
