Surf SweetsGummy Bears, Nut Free, Gluten Free, Dairy Free, 2.75 oz. (Pack of 12)

We enjoy these gummy bears. They are sweet enough to satisfy our sweet craving but they aren't overly sweet. The consistency varies among the batches. We've had some that were very soft and gooey and others that were more like "traditional" gummy bears. Regardless, this is our go-to sweet treat.

Flavors non-murky— identifiable as lemon or whatever. Often, in other brands, you can’t tell what they’re supposed to taste like.

It has gelatin (all gelatin is from pork) after their ingredient list did not show it!!!! I’m not happy about that BUT if you eat pork and don’t care about that then they are awesome. I’m sad because they were the only available ones that didn’t show gelatin in their ingredient list. I wish companies would use vegetarian gelatin or bovine (beef) gelatin.

Very hard to find lately and happy to have located them. Pricey for what they are but I suppose we are paying for availability.

We tried all of Surf Sweets-bears, worm, jelly beans & sours; each had mostly pros. The best of all they are all gluten free and don't have any palm oils which we're allergic to also. They each have clean flavors-not that preservative after taste I remember from my pre-gluten-free years and no one in my family who has multiple allergies has ever had a problem with any of their products. That is a huge accomplishment-for something to taste this great and none of us to have a reaction! Ultimately, our favorite was the Surf Sweets Gummy Bears, though they are more chewy than some of the others, we liked that they weren't quite as sweet as the jelly beans or sour as the sours and we liked the size better than the worms.

If you're a gummy bear aficionado like me Haribo Gold Bears are the gold standard. In the organic world there are Surf Sweets and Yummy Earth. Surf Sweets are almost indistinguishable from a good quality non-organic gummy bear. It doesn't have the consistency of Haribo that I love but it's good and fruity. Yummy Earth has an inconsistent texture that I have actually grown to prefer. Some are hard and have almost Haribo like texture. Others are very soft. Some are even stale.For consistency go with Surf Sweets.

These used to be my favorite candy. Then they disappeared--couldn't find them anywhere. When they reappeared, they were AWFUL. Just 3-4 little bears burned away a layer of skin from my mouth. Very painful! I got a refund and will never buy them again.
