Fruity Pebbles Treats, 6.2 Ounce, 8 Count

They were ok, a lil too soft for me. They didn’t have any crunch to them.

I received an email from Amazon promoting this item and since my husband loves them I went to the website. Not reading all the detail I assumed I would get three boxes for $7.73. They are around $3 a box at the grocery store. So I ordered 2 thinking I would get 6 boxes - a good deal. Not so, one box for $7.73 - crazy. My error for not reading the small print but the picture is deceiving and when ordering on a phone one doesn't pay as much attention. Lesson learned but am going to try to return anyway!!!

I thought I dreamed these up until on a whim I did a search online and found out they were real, so I ordered them through Amazon. Two days later they arrived. They are a bit small. They are like Rice Krispie treats, in that they are a block of cereal held together by sticky "marshmallow". They are tasty, but there is this smell that is terrible about them. I don't know what it is. Maybe it's the "marshmallow". Whatever it is, I had to put the wrapper on the bar while I ate it because I didn't want my hand to smell from holding it. I thought maybe I got a bad batch, but I found a friend who found them in a store and tried them and said the same thing about the smell. You don't really taste the smell unless you inhale with your mouth while you have a bite of the bar in it. It's too bad because they would have been a treat I would have purchased more of.

Did not Taste like the ones you buy at the store . Did not even eat them

You like eating a sponge? Good. This is like chewing on a sponge that stinks of Fruity Pebbles. We've all eaten Rice Krispies treats; those are good, those are slightly crunchy. This is just a dense gummy mess that tastes like it has zero natural ingredients in it, entirely a science project affair. I could deal with the astronaut food consistency of the product if it tasted good. It probably would have been smarter marketing to associate this with the Jetsons rather than the Flintstones. On the bright side, each unit has only 90 calories. The ingredients boast of no high fructose corn syrup, gluten free, and 10% of the FDA vitamin D requirement. But I get the impression that these benefits are as illusory as the products that shout, "Sugar Free!" while loading you up with sucralose, aspartame, or whatever test tube agglomeration it is that conjoins scientists and marketers like siamese twins . I confess, I didn't look at the label until after I put it in my mouth. Well, actually, I didn't look at the label until just now as I was writing this. Apart from a few recognizable elements including vitamins or minerals, the ingredients include a laboratory soup of red 40, niacinamide, reduced iron, zinc oxide, turmeric oleoresin, yellow 6, yellow 5, blue 1, palmitate, blue 2, marshmallow (corn syrup, sugar, gelatin, natural and artificial flavor), hydrogenated vegetable oil (coconut and palm kernel oils), partially hydrogenated palm kernel and palm oils, dextrose, glycerin, soy lecithin. Any vestige of nutrition that these bars might contain presumably comes from the manufacturer artificially adding in vitamins and minerals. It's hard to consider this a food product. One could imagine the day will arrive when any organic substance found in the average kennel could be processed to contain a soft creamy multivitamin center so the packaging could boast that it contained 100% of FDA daily requirements. Until that day arrives, this product should suffice.
