Why is one show about the supernatural good, while the other sucks?
Why is one fast food burger disgusting, while the other is tasty?
Why does one album by The Killers stink, while another is really good?
And finally, why are LifeSavers Gummies “Fruit Splosions” yummy (review here) but THESE liquid filed gummies by Starburst taste like shit?
I don’t know. If I knew, I wouldn’t have bought them, but thems the breaks.
Ever been to your Grandma’s and had one of those disgusting orange filled chocolates? I suppose you could have had one anywhere, but let’s just say you’re at your Grandma’s house, it makes for a more disgusting story. These orange gummy abominations remind me of Grandma’s fave- sticky, sweet, cloying goopy orangy (but not citrusy orange, just generic plain orange) poo buttons. I literally uttered a “Aargh!!” as it went down, and this was at 12:30 in the morning, alone. No one to talk to in particular, I just had to get it out.
Look, don’t feel sorry for me kids, I’m ALWAYS alone at 12:30 in the morning, OK? My wife hasn’t been up past midnight since she was 17.
Back to the goo shuttles, I just have to wonder whether some people out there actually like these. And why, WHY aren’t Starburst’s original flavors (not the names of the flavors, but the taste) come through? Isn’t that the whole point of having branch off candies from a big company? That you can tell it’s a Starburst? Failure. Total brand over saturation failure.
Bottom Line: My only solace is that I bought the 89 cent bag as opposed to the $2.79 hanging bag. I don’t recommend these to anyone, anywhere. Not in a boat, not in a moat. I do not like these crappy spurts, I do not like the Gummibursts.
Sorry, no. I haven’t heard of that happening, but it sounds horrible. Yet another reason to stay away…
I want to know if you have had any reports of this candy making people sick? My daughter, her husband and myself got really sick after eating these candies. nausea, throwing up and aching all over for days after eating these. I reported this to Star Burst and they claim they have received no reports of sickness from this candy.
