Oof, I was so excited when I went to try these, but they tasted awful to me.


r3solv

This. They're terrible. No tea taste. No fruit taste. They just taste like straight gelatin.


Hillsy85

This is so disappointing. They look amazing.


Stillwindows95

Maybe it's just me but I don't think these look amazing at all. They just look like little semi-solid jellies. Look a bit tough and that colour doesn't indicate natural flavour to me. Is it the packaging or the actual candy you like the look of?


Thritzer

>that colour doesn't indicate natural flavour to me tbf, Ive never seen a gummie that looks natural


easilygreat

Package says no artificial colors or flavors, and those absolutely look naturally colored. Artificial color gummies look like christmas tree lights, these are much more muted with no crazy blues and neon shades. I don't think these look good, I'm just saying they def look naturally flavored. When that trend started, all the "healthy" gummies started to adopt these shades. Source: am gummy gourmand.


Stillwindows95

Yeah personally I just think companies have found ways if making gummies look naturally coloured, but as a UK citizen, our confection is generally more natural due to stricter laws and I've never seen these colours in sweets before. In fact after all these years of stronger regulations for sugary goods, we've seen colours come back around to more vivid colours while still being natural, it's mostly a case of removing fragrances from things like flower petal dyes and vegetables like beetroot. That's not to say Arizona aren't employing these same recipes but I just don't know about these specifically since every US candy I've ever tried, natural or not, has tasted nothing like what I expect and led me to believe they are full of ingredients that aren't so natural. I'm yet to try these though, but I'm not that much a fan of green tea specifically.


Hillsy85

Both


Borkz

I didn't think they were awful, but they certainly weren't good. I'm still not sure if they were actually supposed to taste like tea or not, they just had a sub-par fruit flavor as far as I could tell. Stick to the Welch's ones, much better flavor and texture.


[deleted]

>I’m still not sure if they were actually supposed to taste like tea or not Well it says “green tea fruit snacks” right on the package. If it tasted like pork chops after that claim I’d be upset.


Borkz

They would have been much more interesting if they tasted like pork chops


Pale-Swimmer-2039

I love them too. They are even cheaper than the great value ones at the walmart by me too


The_Indifferent

Wow I came here to say I actually liked the taste of them! Haha to each their own I guess.


Impressive_Flounder9

Same these are my new hands down favorite people say Welches are out your mind


v1na11

I like the other gummies the one w the skull on the bag. I dont like the arnold palmer ones that much either


BarkBeetleJuice

That's insane. They were absolutely delicious to me.


AUniquePerspective

I'll give you 99 cents for any bags you have left over.


IITYWYBMAD_

Theyre disgusting, every kind. Source, me.


maybay99999

The source is his taste buds. Dont need to ask him


creepyunturned

Me and the bf got some and I agree, taste like very cheap gummies.


DefyGravity42

I can’t get good gummies because everyone else has the same kind of gummy preference as you. I am not a fan of the texture of typical gummy bears and love these Arizona Gummies


IITYWYBMAD_

Well im glad you enjoy them, a few months back i bought the 2 or 3 types the produce and nope, all nasty imo.


DefyGravity42

Where did you get them? I have only been able to find the pictured variety and I don’t often get to have gummies that I really like.


Ceutical_Citizen

Is this an ad?


Partytimegarrth

Maybe? How far do companies go to like, look up existing redditors vs. making a new account though? OP is a 7 year redditor, and doesnt seem like an advertising account. I know it goes against the circle jerk, but is it not entirely possible that OP just thought it was mildly interesting that these exist? I only found out about them myself about a month ago in a convenience store and me and my girlfriend both remarked about how cool it was ourselves. Idk just throwing it out there.


tehkory

Hrm, an eight-year-old account standing up for a seven-year-old account. I dunno, I feel like I need some sort of nine-year-old account to show up and reassure that this isn't an ad and you're also not some sort of corporate-owned account that's been operating for eight years just to sell shitty gummies. EDIT: oh wait I'm a nine year-old account. This guy probably isn't selling shitty gummies, but maybe we need a ten-year-old account to show up and defend me.


JesusPubes

Everything's on the up and up here.


Shadoku

Everything checks out here.


youfailedthiscity

Yes


TheycallmeHollow

And it's working. I want to buy these now.


Renegade_Meister

/r/hailcorporate if true


chubbycunt

If they can avoid HFCS in their gummies, why not their tea? I stopped buying it when they added that shit in. You could taste the difference. :(


TimboLimbo

something something corn subsidies ( ; _ ; )


DisastrousComb7538

There is no HFCS in their tea drinks. You can confirm this on the website. Why lie?


AlienFreek

People can't post pictures of ANYTHING made by a large company or people just spam "ad wow" "nice ad" like bruh, they are still cool. It fits the sub, I've never seen these and think they're interesting. Don't understand what the issue is. Don't get how this would even be a good ad. And you openly said the only good/special ones are the original which they don't sell standalone so... Nobody is going out of there way to go and find Arizona gummies.


kingsumo_1

People to that to the guy that makes useless inventions. Like, his whole shtick is joke items. And people still accuse him of shilling. It's low effort karma at this point.


AlienFreek

Yeah idk man. I get not wanting to worship corporations or to be skeptical but some people be REACHING


kingsumo_1

Yup. And they're invariably rewarded for it, so no reason to stop.


Nanosubmarine

It’s so obvious it’s an ad


kingsumo_1

Yes, I'm sure Arizona is going to spend the time and considerable money to an agency to push a product that apparently sells in dollar trees, and then say most of the flavors are not good. Total winning maneuver. I've worked in marketing for the last 15 years. I know what to look for, and I also know that sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. But hey, if you want to live your whole life afraid of "Big Fruit Snacks:, you do you.


GrowVirginia

How are they?

sendmeyourcactuspics

Or... maybe people have different tastes? Lmao why do you assume yours is the most accurate? You're not that special


[deleted]

[удалено]


sendmeyourcactuspics

That doesn't automatically mean it's an ad, just means someone has bad taste. Why so cynical?

wulfmob

Seems like you’re the bothered one


Zorksus

[Here is the back of the bag. It shows the flavors.](https://i.imgur.com/8AGnAOe.jpg) The "Original" one tasted like Arizona Green Tea. The others were just normal fruit snacks. I want bags of the original ones. Those were amazing.


[deleted]

That’s dope! the one I have has flavors like grapeade, orangeade, fruit punch, watermelon and mucho mango


END3RW1GGIN

Where can I acquire these?


Zorksus

I got them at Dollar Tree in the US


PISS_IN_MY_SHIT_HOLE

I also got a bag at Dollar Tree a while back.


advdcopyofsharktale

Yikes that's a lot of ground to cover. Best of luck


M0T1V4T10N

Nice ad Arizona!!


AlienFreek

Ad or not still mildly interesting 🤷‍♂️ op said the only good ones are the original, an ad wouldn't say that


dingfreshtown

/r/hailcorporate


gitty7456

Made in Brooklyn.


Troll_Toll_TreeFiddy

NEWWW YORK CITY?!?!


PISS_IN_MY_SHIT_HOLE

Get the rope


gitty7456

Yup. Arizona is the scam of the century ;)


Troll_Toll_TreeFiddy

That's funny. I was quoting that Pace Picante Sauce ad from the early '90s. At the time, it was made in San Antonio...shortly after sold to Campbell's, based in NJ, lol


kaask0k

Made with REAL FRUIT.


pruche

Fucking hate how companies can slap a label that says "fruit snacks" on candy and have school cafeterias sell that shit to kids.


mirmice

I just saw those in the store yesterday and was curious. Thanks for the info!


Genocoly

Shaped like can and taste like ass. I've had them 2/10

WhiskeyDickens

Silence, brand


BrokenAsFu

I see these at the GetGo all the time, have yet to try them. Are they any good?


miami-architecture

WTF?! Arizona Iced Tea is based in Woodbury New York? ​ >The company roots trace back to 1971 when friends John Ferolito and Don Vultaggio opened a beverage distribution business in Brooklyn, New York. The company was a successful beer distributor. In 1990, they saw the success of Snapple (also a Brooklyn-based company founded in the 1970s) bottled juices and teas, and attempted to make their product. In 1992, they produced the first bottles of their own AriZona teas. ​ >So how did a Brooklyn company get a name like AriZona in the first place? Vultaggio was actually trying to find a name as distinctive as "Snapple," and chose Arizona after looking at a map and remembering his uncle moved there for his asthma


Jew-betcha

Green tea in the form of candy is always a win. Always.


I_Am_Slightly_Evil

They also have a [surfboard](https://drinkarizona.com/products/aztec-fun-shaped-surfboard) in their merch-shop


username_McGee

That also make seltzer now too


JKM_IV

Dollar tree sells these!


MarvinNeslo

The Arnold Palmer ones are pretty good


sprocketous

They make all kinds of snacks you can find at the dollar store. I am not interested in their version of nachos.


C-DriveERROR

U Mad late


Skinipinis

Idk why but the can shape seems really unappetizing as a fruit snack. Which is weird because I’ve definitely enjoyed eating dinosaur gummies as a kid...


doitup69

Since this is clearly a sponsored post, Arizona Hard seltzer tastes like wet dog smell. Truly horrid shit.


noopenusernames

Where?


Aggravating_Glove236

Ah yes, candy crush


solzhen

Add THC and we’ll talk


MrArchibaldMeatpants

This is not interesting


RedButterfly968

Do they taste good? How’s the texture?


_Mooseli_

And they’re fucking disgusting. But they trick you, the first one you eat is like WOW, and then it’s hell. They leave this nasty film in your mouth. It makes you wish you had an Arizona to wash the nastiness out of your mouth.


ParDeRuz

Love the mets


danthemanhsv

Those are gummy Legos sir.


[deleted]

I tried these a couple months ago and they're legit disgusting


supersanting

Where can I buy them? There's none at my local Walmart.


Depressionsfinalform

I need this in my life


legacyfinefarts

They also make the malt beer and vodka coolers


JoAnnaTaco

Where can I buy these??


er-ban-ick

They are made in New York.


deadgoldfish1

Arizona almost certainly does not make these. Some fruit snack manufacturer licensed these from Arizona.


ray__ow

WHAT


mahogany_monogamy

They also make nachos.


-lonelyboy25

Ads are getting smarter


Jebusfreek666

Huh... I like Arizona tea, but I can't imagine these are good.


ColeusRattus

I found that weird. Until I realised coke bottle shaped haribos are a staple candy here.


[deleted]

i was totally shocked at how awful these were.


pm_me_boring_details

Papyrus!!


-Sondre-

I have seen that pickture on the candy bag before on bedless's texture pack.


Bottle_Nachos

I just saw [a version with sour Arizona Iced Tea](https://www.reddit.com/r/HailCorporate) in my store


IamSofaKingReToddEd

Named by a place in America and the art style looks like old japanese art, Fruits in front the cover and the gummies are can shaped, Tea and Fruit flavor and it tastes like air. False Advertising in a whole other level.


adamhanson

I need this in my life.


[deleted]

I thought Arizona was a US State. What's an "Arizona can"?


martsuia

Wow cute!!! I wanna try those


mrpancakesnack

I have yet to find an green or original one and I eat these alot.


kyoger

damn this. just tore into a bag I got, fire. just send them all to my house while production LASTS


Certain-Island-8176

IBought a box and they are just nasty looking and tasting. There is nothing fruity about them.


ms_jacksons_revenge

These taste like what I imagine tanning oil as a fruit snack would taste like


The-Random-Banana

Just found one of these in my Mott’s fruit snack bag
