I have a 10# bag of them at home.

For a few kids projects (co-op), we ordered a 10# bags of gummies and they shipped a sugar-free bag by mistake. We got to keep them in the exchange process. Excluding the taste, it was like chewing on a car tire.

It sounds like they should keep them on airplanes in case of a water landing.

That first long review by C. Torok was hysterical, but painful at the same time.
I think this "event" was caught on film...

Who thought it would be a good idea to make Gummi Bears with Olestra?

I was in a Wegmans a few years back when I first discovered sugar-free gummy bears. I sampled a few from the barrel and found that they tasted just like real gummies. As a hardcore candy addict, I was pumped. This seemed too good to be true! Candy without the calories? (Or at least, with significantly fewer calories)

I did notice a warning label on the barrel that talked about gas, cramps, diarrhea, etc. But I was willing to take the chance and filled a decent bag to take home.

The first night, I just tried a small quantity. Still tasted great. Still seemed to good to be true. No side-effects to speak of. Now I was really excited. Maybe other people had stomach issues with these things, but it seemed like I was in the clear!

So a few nights later, I figured I could throw caution to the wind. I scarfed the rest of the bag while watching a movie. Still tasted great. Still felt fine before going to bed.

A few hours later, I woke up to the worst stomach cramps I've ever experienced in my life, and barely made it to the toilet before I suffered the wrath of my error. That was a miserable, painful, fetid night; worse than any bout of food poisoning I've ever experienced.

The burnt hand teaches best.

My cousin has a story that is similar to mine, but involved an office party. Someone like me had "discovered" the magic of sugar-free gummies and brought them in for the whole office. Everyone was scarfing them like crazy by mid-day. By the afternoon, things got nasty.

You could absolutely pull horrible pranks on people with these things. If I hadn't experienced the pain myself, I might say it would be a funny thing to try. After crapping out half of my organs though, I'm a bit more reluctant to encourage such a thing.

Byron you owe me a new keyboard. No way to get the coffee spray out of the old one.

I'll reserve it for those who truly have it coming. The kind of person that you are forced to, for one reason or another, spend far too much time with.
