If you are looking for these gummies at the store, they are pretty hard to miss. The bag is Pink and Lime Green and are practically shouting for attention. Inside, all the strings and rings are covered with sugar crystals. They all actually look sour, but surprisingly are true to the advertising on the bag. The strings are sweet and the rings are sour. The flavors were okay, but one in particular stood out in my mind – the Sour Fruit Punch “Ring.” I say “ring” because I only had ONE in the bag! A little disappointing since it was so flavorful and tasted just like fruit punch. The gummies are thick but they have more of a soft chew. I find refrigerating the gummies more to my liking, as they not only give them a cool, refreshing feel but also give them a slightly harder chew.

I would have been happy with a bag of completely sour strings and rings. However, it is kind of neat to be able to share this bag with someone who only likes sour or sweet candy. Say, if your friend likes sour and you like sweet, you can still buy one bag to share! But do look for a bigger bag than a mere two ounce bag like the one I bought for $1. All in all, these Life Savers Gummies Sweet Strings N Sour Rings are pretty decent. I will have to keep my eye open for a bigger bag (specifically for more of the sour fruit punch flavor!).

Although I should have stopped at the Gummi Frankenstein Brains, the Twilighter in me screamed for me to also get the Gummi Vampire Fangs. Yes, I too was lured into the vampire hype. Unlike the Gummi Brains, the Gummi Vampire Fangs resembled actual teeth, albeit smaller. You can hardly call them fangs since the teeth are practically even height. Of course, the gummy gums are pink and the teeth are white. The taste, however, was exactly the same as the Gummi Frankenstein Brains, including the starchiness. I put the boxes of the Gummi Frankenstein Brains and Gummi Vampire Fangs together and not surprisingly found that they contained the exact same ingredients, save for the artificial coloring.

Both the Gummi Frankenstien Brains and Gummi Vampire Fangs cost $1.49 at World Market. I have even heard that they can be found at the dollar store (go figure). Even so, I would not recommend these to anyone, unless you like the taste of starchy plastic. If you happen to already have a box and can’t stand the taste either, I have found that rinsing them with water gets rid of the plastic flavor and makes them more edible.
