I pass them out to friends and family...
*** DISCLAIMER ***- Yes, they WILL NOT taste like your favorite candies! Really, what do you expect? Yeah, that’s simply NOT going to happen when you use different or natural ingredients. Think more along the line of a less processed, more natural version. Different candies = different flavor.- Yes, they are more expensive! Hell yeah, they are! These are not a mass produced candies made with inexpensive, artificial and highly processed, ingredients. More expensive ingredients = more expensive product.- Yes, the texture is different! Yeah, they don’t have the waxes and thickeners that the big brand name candies use. Different ingredients = different textures.- Yes, they aren’t as sweet! Unfortunately in the US, sugar in one form or another, exists in almost everything we eat. Our brains and tonguesare pretty much programmed for sweet things because of it. But when you reprogram your tastebuds by reducing or eliminating all the added sugar in your diet, these are plenty sweet to satisfy your craving. Less sugar = less sweet.*** PRODUCT REVIEW ***Oh, hey there! I’m glad you made it this far... I wanted to try Smart Sweets, but I wasn’t sure if I wanted to commit to 6 bags or a single flavor. Thankfully this variety pack is available!I think these are awesome! I usually crave salty, but occasionally I do have a sweet tooth. The problem is, too much sugar is REALLY bad for you, and it’s added into nearly E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G (seriously, try finding WHOLE GRAIN BREAD that doesn’t have added sugar in it)!That’s the beauty of these candies, just 3-4 grams of sugar per pack & approx 100 calories a bag. No stomach upset (I’m glaring at you, sugar alcohols). The Fruity Gummy Bears are my favorite. Get this, they actually taste like fruit! Peach Rings are also fab. The Sours had a nice bit of pucker to them, but still tasted like their flavors. The Sweet Fish (which are supposed to be cherry flavor, in my opinion were only meh.

DO NOT BUY THE NUTRITION FACTS DO NOT MATCH THE ACTUAL PACKAGES!!!!!
DO NOT BUY!The FDA should pull these, the Nutrition Facts that are posted in the photos do not match what is on the backs of the actual bags. I’m doing KETO and thought these would be perfect BASED ON THE PHOTOS and reviewing the nutrition facts. This is what is really on the bags:SWEET FISH 42g CARBS 13g fiber !!!!SOUR GUMMIES 36g CARBS 9g fiber !!!!SWEET CHEWS 36 CARBS 10g fiber !!!!FRUITY GUMMY BEARS 36g CARBS 9g fiber !!!!PEACH RINGS 42g CARBS 13g fiber !!!!SOUR BLAST BUDDIES 42g CARBS 13g fiber !!!!BEWARE! NO REFUND AVAILABLE AND WILL THROW OFF YOUR LOW CARB/KETO DIET!The seller is taking advantage of people who are looking for low carb snacks at a ridiculous price! No better than regular candy on the shelves!

Misleading, not suitable for low carb diets
This product shows up as a low carb product but simply is a high carb product with little added refined sugar. A single pack of these spiked my dads blood sugar from a fasting state worse than Ice cream. I think the type of fiber they are using is absorbable to a decent extent and not to be subtracted from the net carbs. Rice flour and potato starch have no place in low carb recipes. I think they are on to something, flavor is good enough, use of allulose and monkfruit is great, but they need to ditch the other absorbable carb sources because as it is these are basically just as bad as regular candy with the added benefit of having little refined sugar. Bottom line they are not to be considered for people who are looking for low carb or diabetic alternatives, but if your goal is to get rid of a few grams of added refined sugar they should work.

Why change the recipe?
I received Smart Sweet gummies as a gift several months ago. I loved them. I don't know what happened between then and now but they are almost all tasteless. These were such a find when I first had them but Smart Sweets has obviously changed its recipes. These are terrible. I'm glad I ordered the variety pack so I know that it's not just one flavor; they all are almost tasteless with a bizarre coating for the "sour" gummies. Really disappointed.

WOULD NOT RECOMMEND - A WASTE OF YOUR $
This order arrived inedible. All of the gummies were stuck together into a gooey MESS. Even worse, I had to pay $24 for this worthlessness and NO refund / return available. What a waste.

Wanting my money back
I bought these because I saw them on multiple weight loss influencer accounts and wanted to give them a try. In my opinion they are disgusting. The red fish didn’t even taste like licorice. The sour gummy buddies used this powder for the sour taste and it was a weird consistency. The only thing that tasted remotely like it was supposed to was the peach rings. In my opinion all of them had a nasty aftertaste and I threw everything in the trash! Wish I could get a refund. That’s how disappointed I was!

Changed
Formula has even changed. No longer keto friendly and they are way chewier than they used to be. Won’t be buying again

Diabetic Couch Potato Approves
I'm a newly diagnosed diabetic, so that alone let's you know that I have an uncontrollable urge for snacking. 😂🤦🏾♂️ I've been trying to find fruit snack alternatives (fruit snacks are my kryptonite) and this is that for me. These taste amazing. My favorites are the peach rings and sweet fish. I can go through a bag of them without worrying about a spike in my blood sugar. Other than the bags being so tiny I have no complaints.
