SmartSweets Variety Pack, 1.8oz (Pack of 8), Candy With Low Sugar & Calorie, Healthy Snacks For Kids & Adults - Sweet Fish, Sourmelon Bites, Peach Rings, Sour Blast Buddies

Good taste. Good texture but they have potato starch in them which makes my joints hurt. But great product if you are artificial dye free

SO delicious! I'm gonna cancel my order for sour gummy worms and just get these from now on!

The flavor is great, especially on the Swedish fish. The other candy's were VERY sour but I love sour candy they might be too sour for other people. The big detractor was the texture. These candies are so chewy that they plaster to your teeth in the absolute worst way especially again the Fish. These candies are expensive, so for me the texture is a deal breaker. I won't be buying these again because of it. Which is too bad. If the texture where better I'd be hooked.

They were okay and are a good substitute if you’re trying to cut back on sugar. I don’t think I would order again however. The gummy’s are kinda hard and the fish onces taste like cough medicine. The candies are good enough to finish eating them but not sure I would buy again.

I used to truly be addicted to candy, like I would run to the store to get my gummy sugar sour patch fix 10 minutes away when cravings hit. I found these at local retailers and gave them a try. My first and favorite was the peach rings. I still absolutely love them. They're all so good. They taste really true to the candy they're supposed to replicate. The Swedish Fish are delicious, my boyfriend says they do stick to his teeth a little bit but I don't find an issue with it I just pick the pieces out of my teeth with my tongue when I'm done. Not that big of a deal. This will be my fourth time ordering a variety pack from here on Amazon and they always arrive soft and fresh. I went with a different variety this time to switch it up but I'll definitely be ordering every two weeks. The price point may seem high, but it is cheaper than in the store. Also cheaper than putting sugars, dyes, and toxins into my body in the long run. I highly recommend this candy brand and my dentist is happy it exists as well. I was absolutely shocked to see they only had a 3.9 review so I had to come and share my experience. I have not been persuaded or paid to write this. Enjoy all!

Ugh. My first experience with sugar-free candy was a different brand which I consumed Shamelessly. They were so good, didn't taste like they were sugar free at all, and I snacked on them nightly before bed. My blood sugar wasn't affected, my A1C was perfect, and all I was looking for was different flavors. So I tried these "smart" sweets. I opened four different flavor packages and put them into a baggie. They were all stuck together right out of the package, so I had to separate them to mix the flavors. I popped a few into my mouth, swirled them around to dissolve them slowly...and the flavor was...less-than tolerable. I began to chew them so I could quickly finish them, and they stuck mercilessly to my teeth. I had to spit them out. Now I have four open packages of the most distasteful "candy" I've ever eaten, which cannot be returned. Not to mention, they have nearly twice the calories of my favorite sugar-free candy. This purchase was just wrong on so many levels.

Candy, by definition, features sugar as a principal component. Ask any confectioner about "sugar free candy" and you will be laughed out of the kitchen. Reviews that compare the taste and texture to *candy* will inevitably end with disappointment: our bodies love sugar, and reward us taste when we eat energy dense foods. SmartSweets are not candy; they are part of a novel food category trying to remind us of, or mimic, the taste of candy in a nutritionally inoffensive profile. They taste good for what they are, with fruity flavors, sourness/tang, and chew that gets all over and sticks to your teeth. I love them. They stop me from buying and reaching for worse things, and pack a nice fibre boost along with the craving suppression. Go for these, but adjust your expectations!

I'm a big fan of Haribo and other conventional gummy candies. These were a huge disappointment, the texture and flavors are not right at all. It's sort of like a firm mush, there's none of the snap or resistance I expect when eating a gummy. Of all of them, the red fish come at least somewhat close to what the real ones feel like, so those are probably the best choice. Flavor-wise, they're also the best ones, though I would have liked them to be sweeter. The sour powder that was on the sour patch kids and watermelon slices was very unpleasant. Felt a bit like something you'd make from a kid's science experiment kit, not a professional product. I would really not recommend these. If you had some dietary restriction that prevented you from eating the real thing, maybe they're worth a try, but I doubt even those people would order again.
