Fizzy Sour Candy Bulk - Retro Italian Hard Candy Individually Wrapped - Classic Nostalgic 7 Assorted Flavors Cherry, Watermelon, Strawberry, Blue Raspberry, Apple, Orange & Grape - 425 Pieces Bag for Party Favors, Goodie Bags, Piñata & Candy Buffet.

What can I say? Zotz are awesome! Just kind of fun to have a fizzy candy now and then. I have a row of candy jars on my hutch that every kid that has ever hung out at my house knows about and happily rifles through to see what new candies I have added to the mix. Also, this is a pretty good deal.

This is one of my favorite candies! The outside of the candy is a sweet fruity flavor, and the center of the candy is a little sour and effervescent. While I enjoy these candies very much I don't give them to my friend's kids because they can be sort of sharp. A grown up knows what to do when hard candy gets a crack in it and makes a sharp edge but I wouldn't give it to a little kid. You get a pretty big bag , and I learned that the way they are assembled means sometimes you might have a few more of one flavor one time, but not the next time. I love it when there are a lot of cherry, that's my favorite. I rarely get one that's hard to unwrap due to stickiness which is something I like in a candy. As with any hard candy, sometimes there will be broken ones, and it's kind of fun to get to eat the fizzy powder on its own instead of waiting until you get to the center.

One of my favorite candies, but I wish they would bring back the lemon flavor they used to have.

Loved the flavors and the fizzy center, will be buying again

The taste of the candy is very accurate to its name and there's a lot of said candy, so it lasts a long time. Great variety in the flavors, so it's hard to get bored of tasting the same one over and over again. It was significantly cheaper than going to five below and just filling up a ton of bags with the candy, so great value. I loved the fun feeling of the fizz against my tongue. My only problems are that sometimes when the candy is in my mouth for a while, my saliva melts through unevenly and it can pinch my tastebuds. Also a few of the candies I opened were already popped and even fewer of those popped ones didn't fizz. But I believe I only found like 7 popped candies in the 200 candies I ate.

Just saying . . . this stuff is GOOD, even to a 63-year-old (ZOTZ was a candy from my childhood). My only problem was eating more than just a couple, so beware!!!

They are as good as I remember. I bought myself a bag but my family ate most of them. They were all as hard as they should be, no melted or sticky ones. It is a good price for the size of bag that you get.

I used to buy Zotz all the time when i was a kid. My boyfriend is going to gripe at me when he sees these. He's going to take the bag away from me and ration them out. I used to break open several candies, dump the fizz in a small pile, put the fizz in my mouth and let it fizz all over my mouth. My mom would get so annoyed but thats how much i love them. Anytime I fly on a plane, I buy a bag and share it.

Outstanding… I had these as a kid in Florida in the 70s, so had to take a trip down nostalgia lane. Exactly as I remembered. The original sour candy with a fizz,

I got addicted to these after trying them from the big candy shop in the big mall in my city. Only counted 99 in my bag, no biggie since I might be wrong after eating a few beforehand. I got somewhat lucky with my mix, 25 were orange (not my favorite) but the rest was fairly close with a range of 10-16. Very few feel like they might be broken. Would buy again!

Few good flavours. Fizz doesn't enhance the flavour at all. Cuts the inside of the tongue and the gum but thats hardly its fault, just how hard candy is. But I make a note of that because that left more of an impression than the flavours, which were just uninteresting, which is a bad thing when the candy actively hurts your mouth, its a bad thing even when it hurts and tastes good, but atleast thats tolerable. Also the fizz just tastes weird, a very sharp "sour" taste that personally doesn't gel well with the already weak tasting candy. It kind of reminds me of juicy drop pop, except the contrast can actually work their because the sweet taste of the pop isn't so weak that it gets overpowered by the sour. So the contrast can be a weird but interesting counter balance to when it tastes too sweet, and the sweet to when it tastes too sour. All of this to be clear is just my personal subjective opinion, you gotta take the L with this sort of thing as it'll always come down to a matter of taste, almost no functional flaw or benefit can override that importance unless its literally harming you, or fulfilling your deepest desires, which is really just another matter of taste and preference at the end of the day. It all is. I think thats what I'm really mad at, that I wasted $40 dollars in the irreconcilable belief that somehow the experiences of others can ever truly reflect my own. Its easy to misunderstand and think thats what happens when we relate to, converse with and interact with one another, but theres always a filter, and what we call "understanding" is simply meeting at the middle of something acceptable and tolerable, that is never really any of our experiences, but is broadly enough of a "experience" to project whatever we most value onto. I wasted $40 on something I almost can't stand to consume for the reasons I listed, something I can't return because unlike many other products, it is meant to be consumed as a fundamental function of it's existence, meaning it could never be returned with enough functionality to still provide value, a phone that comes with a hazard manual can still be returned or resold without it both because thats easily replaceable and also because nobody really needs it. But isn't this a bit silly when you think about it? There are 100 candies and I've forced myself to eat about 5. Is 95 really such an insufficient leftover of functionality that it can't be returned? Well it's because it doesn't really matter in the first place, it has no value so any value can be projected onto it. Just like a white piece of paper can become pink, or red, or yellow. 10 less candies or 10 more can't really have a value because that value is how much you are willing to taste, and you'll make that decision somehow no matter what amount is offered, so it's arbitrary either way, they can't accept any less because there's no reason to even accept the amount they've given. You can't return the taste, and the bag and wrappers itself obviously have no functional value they can't replace themselves with little cost. Before I bought this, I was certain that 100 candies was good and worthwhile value for $40, that's because the value was completely arbitrary, dependent on whims of taste even I was not aware of. You sometimes end up fearing with this sort of stuff (candy&treats) that if you buy too little, you'll end up craving more, and you can't stand to simply wait for more while the cravings are raving. But you also don't want to buy too much that you get tired of it, especially if it turns out to not taste good. Well I made the wrong calculation. I thought this was going to taste so good that 100 candies honestly wouldn't be enough. Clearly in an ironic twist of fate, that was not the case.

It’s money waste not good
