I love the gummi bears too! Why, I don’t know, but I do. Thank goodness for the Dope, no matter what we like there is usually someone else who shares out tastes.
You can buy a 5 pound bag at CostCo of Black Forest Gummy bears for $6. I put it out in a jar at my desk and between me and the people who stop by, it usually only lasts 5 days, so I am just as bad!
Anyone ever put gummi worms/bears in the freezer? They last longer! And they’re still oh-so-tasty. I haven’t actually tried it with the sour ones though.
Well, if we are speaking of guilty pleasures - I love the Japanese gummies in peach and melon. Hideously priced at $3.99 for 4.41 oz. at Media Play and I still can’t resist them.
Funny part is that the store doesn’t even know the name of them, it just says ‘Anime Candy’ on the price tag.
I wonder… are those peach ones are better than the apricot/peach ones that are usually found in American candy stores? Ugh, I hate those.
I grew up in Germany in the 1980’s… I have the feeling that country is the ancestral home of all things gummi (pronounced “goomee”). Gummi cherries, gummi cokebottles, …
At the moment I can only buy them in the small bags of the wonderful gummies but I plan to search out sources and buy in bulk. I have just discoverd the wonderful HEB Central Market which stocks all kinds of Haribo goodness and not just the Gold Bears.
