Twizzlers Sweet and Sour Filled Twists

Hi everyone!  Welcome to my first post <3

The first candy I am going to review is this new bag of Twizzlers I found at my local grocery store, called Twizzlers Sweet and Sour Filled Twists.  Inside are two different colored Twizzlers, yellow and red.  The yellow flavor is “citrus punch” and the red flavor is “cherry kick.”  The “kick” and “punch” are what make these Twizzlers different from your regular bag of Twizzlers as they refer to the “tangy inside” that the Twizzlers are filled with.

Although I first wondered what “citrus punch” was supposed to taste like, I have come to realize that the punch isn’t referring to the flavor of punch as a juice/drink, but is just referring to the extra “punch” the Twizzlers add with their filling.  The outer layer of the Twizzlers have a sweet lemon flavor, while the insides have a slightly sour lemony taste.  The insides are gooey and sticky but are a nice touch to these Twizzlers.  I personally enjoyed the inside sour filling more than the actual Twizzlers themselves.

The “cherry kick” Twizzlers were similar to the “citrus punch” ones but of course these were cherry flavored.  After eating a couple, I found that biting into the Twizzlers left its gooey center stuck to my teeth.  So I ended up just squeezing out the sour filling and eating that first before actually biting into the Twizzlers themselves.  Without the sour center, the “cherry kick” flavor reminded me of cherry fruit roll ups.

Taste-wise these Twizzlers were all right.  I didn’t really think they tasted like anything special.  However, the candy was true to its packaging as they were sweet and sour filled twists.  All in all, I don’t think I’ll be buying another bag, but I don’t feel it was a total waste of money either (price was a little over $2).
