Review: Extremely Happy Delicious - Perfect, very happy with my purchase...It's random what comes in your bag so don't go off of reviews..I was originally nervous to order because people said they got a lot of Banana flavored which is the ones I do not like... But when I received my bag it was the complete opposite..I received very little banana which made me happy..lmaoo..And received a lot more in the flavors I actually did like (Cherry and Apple) ..They are perfect, not too hard like how they were when we were kids, but also not too chewy and soft like a Starburst..The perfect texture and perfect little sweet treat..I hope this video helps someone deciding on whether to get them or not..I have just ordered bag number 2 lol
Review: Less banana please - Good, nice and soft. Really hate the banana though. I wish there was less of that in there because we just throw it away as a family.
