BarnettsMega Sour Candy Fruits 104g - Trendy Sweet Bags - Traditionally Handmade Sweets - Sour Coating Lasts 20 Seconds - Candies for Party Bag, Gift Hamper, or Hamper Box

Honestly I think my experience is kind of an outlier and I am just sort of a freak, especially because my mouth was watering from the negative reviews and not being able to stop thinking about them is what sold me on these.These things are easily the most sour thing I’ve ever put in my mouth. It genuinely tastes like battery acid. And I consider that a great thing. I love getting to eat batteries without having a high likelihood of going to the hospital. (I haven’t done that, but I’ve had the desire. I have not had it since eating these.)Somehow, it doesn’t feel *that* bad, but I honestly can’t imagine how it could be any worse. It is very much an assault on the senses and will make your spit acidic the entire time there’s any coating left. It is impossible to ignore and honestly a little painful—they make the insides of my cheeks raw and my girlfriend says only having a few made her tongue raw for days. If you’re looking for some kind of sensory shock to pull you out of panic attacks or something like that, this is it.The taste of the candies themselves isn’t bad either—once the coating wears off, they mostly just taste like any other hard candy and are pleasant to have in your mouth to recover after the sourness, though I found the orange ones really stood out as the tastiest (and sourest!). Finally, at their core, there is one last burst of sourness in the form of some sort of fluid that gushes out when you finally crunch into them, though thankfully it is much less intense than the powder, easing with that recovery feeling. If you’ve ever been frustrated with sour candies always wearing off, then a sour core is a VERY important selling point.My stomach was very clearly nervously hovering over the puke button the first time I ate one, presumably because it was like “Oh God What The Hell Did You Just Put In Me”, and there were a few pangs of stomach pain, but I was ultimately fine, and it was nothing a few Tums couldn’t fix (but I don’t actually know if Tums can fix this or if it was placebo). Do consider if your own stomach is strong enough to palate these and make sure you’re prepared if you believe it may not be.Also, I wasn’t sure how to work this into the rest of the review, but the different flavors in the mixed one seem to be varyingly sour. I haven’t paid *too* much attention but in order I would say roughly it’s orange > green > red ≈ yellow.Overall, these hit the nail on the head for me. I am exactly the type of person this is the target audience for. If you’re like me and this sounds incredibly appealing, you won’t regret it. Or maybe you will regret it, in a fun way. ^.^

These do not play. A raw lemon, get out of here. These bite as advertised, sourest thing I have ever had, then a sweet candy after.I kid you not i though the pineapple was supposed to be lemon,till the sour let off the gas.Fantastic and exactly as advertised, a jump kick to the face of sour, will be ordering more.

The product was melted and stuck together when I received the product. The product looks ntg like the picture, the coating on the candy was completely gone.

I have a high tolerance for sour things. I peel and eat lemons like oranges for a snack. So I got this brand because it's notoriously touted as one of the most sour candies. These live up to the reputation. Three of these left me with minor acid burns on my tongue and the roof of my mouth. Took me about a week to go through the smallest bag, because I had to wait for my mouth to heal before going in for more.These didn't have labels for the actual flavors in thus variety pack, but based on the taste, here is what I would guess: lemon (yellow), orange (orange), lime (green), and something red (red). My favorite was the something red one.The outer coating of these is the best part. After that is gone, its just regular hard candy with a kinda fizzy center. I will say: the fizz at the middle felt like an assault in the wake of the wreckage the citric acid and exfoliating surface left behind. To be honest, I usually spit out the candy after the sour layer has gone away because it's too sweet for me.Truly the most painful thing I've ever eaten. Will buy again.

Candy balls are larger than I thought. Taste was great and has fizzy stuff inside. Only downfall, they were all melted together when they arrived.

So I bought this for me and my brother to try. It was extremely extremely sour. My brother had no problem eating it but however after he finished it his tongue hurt. So I’m not very pleased with that.

For context, I’ve been eating candies such as toxic waste since I was like 9 years old, and even I found these to be sour!

It was not what I expected. Just a very big disappointment!!!
