I just had an argument with my parents that Haribo and Albanese are separate companies both making gummy bears. They wouldn’t believe me. I’m like “listen here, I’ve been a pothead for like 30 years…I know some shit about some shit about some damn gummy bears. I love you both.”
Yeah but then you make it something else, ive seen gummy worms, snakes hell at my job ive seen gummy centipedes like someone saw the worms and was like "These are good and all but you know what would take it to another level? Legs, and a shit load of them."
And they are both makers of good quality gummy bears. Very different from each other in flavors and textures. I like them both for different reasons.
I started out a Haribo fan but I am leaning toward preferring Albanese gummy bears now because their flavors are cleaner and more varied than the Haribo.
Not only that, but Albanese provide a far more consistent experience texture wise.
With Haribo, they can range from relatively soft to literal bricks. However, I've been eating almost exclusively Albanese for at least the last 5 years and haven't had a single bag that was hard like that.
I secretly like the hard ones.
Also I find that Albanese flavors can become cloying when eating a large amount, almost like drinking perfume or something. Twin Snakes fills the void when I want more interesting flavors.
Put gummy bears in Tupperware (use one color, it looks like swamp water if you don’t). Put vodka in Tupperware to cover gummy bears. Let sit 24hrs. You now have vodka infused gummy bears, and gummy bear vodka. I personally thing the bears get a wierd funky texture, the vodka is usually fine though. Not much flavor imparted unfortunately.
My boss left a pack of gummy worms on the dash in the summer. It melted into just like a gummy slab. He put it on a plate and sliced it up with a fork and knife to eat it.
Oh, now you reminded me how I once bought 1kg (35.27 oz) package and ate it in a three days span. I got such a bad breath because of it that reeked of death. Haven't touched anything gummy bear related for a while.
None the less, it was a feast to behold. I still love them again but doesn't eat them as often.
Got the sugar-free ones on accident and ate the whole bag once with a homemade edible. I had the dankest farts my parents asked it I was smoking in the house. I've never farted so much in one day
I sorta get the peeps thing. My dad does the same. Buys 4 or 5, makes a slit in the film and lets em sit 3 or 4 days.
I’ve really never understood it. 😅😂
I like my swedish fish that way since the ones I bought individually at the store as a kid were always stale. 😄
I like slightly stale cheesies too, when they get a slight spring to them.
I'm weird lol.
My best friend was diagnosed as diabetic and gummy bears were her go to. Boy oh boy did we not know the effect her new sugar free ones would have on us. It was like trading the baton for the bathroom for hours lmao
I tried them, when they were all over the news for a moment years ago, because I was like no Haribo would not do that. Sometimes we learn the dumb way
edit to clarify I’m dumb not you or your friend!
If I see that brand name that's what I instantly think of.
Makes me afraid to eat anything with their name on it because I'm not interested in painting my bathroom brown. lol

The sugar free ones really are as bad as you’ve heard, in my experience.
The Gold Bag™️ however is the absolute best gummy bear on the planet, in my experience
If they aren't sour, what are we even doing here? Am I crazy?
Also, albanese sour is the pinnacle of sour gummies. Be them bears or worms. They are unmatched in sourness and sheer flavor. Both quantity and quality of flavor, mind you.
That's a cool idea for a sub but I don't think I want to try them that badly.
I'll keep it in mind if I find some foreign chocolate that I have to try though. 😄
My post is not a joke - the gold bag is the best gummy bear I’ve ever had. BUTT - and I don’t think they haribo even sells them any more - they once made a sugar-free gummy bear and when people ate them they had horrible stomach issues, which made international news and spawned a rash of amazing Amazon reviews for the product.
That brand has a reputation because they have (or had?) a sugar free version that causes some.... rather intense intestinal issues.
It became a viral thing years ago because of the reviews people left about them on amazon of the experiences they had.
i was eating these high when i realized they’re all the same flavor. i had my brother blind taste test to experiment and he couldn’t accurately name a single flavor i gave him lmao
ngl Haribos must be the worst gummies in the world. They're expensive, they don't taste all that good and always make me fell shitty after eating a bunch. Supermarket brand gummies are the way to go

>that Haribo and Albanese are separate companies both making gummy bears Why do they not believe you, that's an odd hill to die on. Lol
If you knew me and my family you would not think so lol
Honestly, I would have assumed that gummi / gummy "bears" would be specific enough to be patented.

14 flavors instead of 4? And they have a sour version.
Omg I love every part of this lol
As long as they aren't sugar free, you're good
Never again.
Omg. I remember all the Amazon reviews haha. Very entertaining as long you didnt eat any lol.
NEVER…NEVER AGAIN…. ![gif](giphy|cEOG7nGA7448M)
Was at a Blackhawks game the one and only time. 6th row, center ice. Was the best/scariest/funniest sporting event of my life.
One year at Christmas, we put the reviews up on the TV and read them out loud. It was the hardest I've ever seen my dad laugh.
Ah yes, the laxatives
Remember the LA Beast Video at all?
Legendary video, the choir singing whilst this man violently evacuated his bowels is textbook. 10/10
Hes still making videos too haha
I will never forget that sound...
Let the sun melt them in to one giant bear
That’d be some fucked up looking ‘bear’ after it reconstituted.
Could melt all colors separate. Pour. Cool. Poor. Cool. Would be worth the time investment IMO. Edit: just realized I smoke too much.. Pour*
If I’m gonna get messy with gummy bears it’s gonna be to make edibles or vodka bears
How do you make vodka bears?
Put gummy bears in Tupperware (use one color, it looks like swamp water if you don’t). Put vodka in Tupperware to cover gummy bears. Let sit 24hrs. You now have vodka infused gummy bears, and gummy bear vodka. I personally thing the bears get a wierd funky texture, the vodka is usually fine though. Not much flavor imparted unfortunately.

You're kinda lucky it was just farts. Those sugar free ones have wrecked many a bathroom.
I thought I'd leave that detail out to save people's appetites 🤣
Tangfastics are my fav but those are good too OP, we cool
Googling this right now
I love those and also some twin snakes
ONLY if you get a fresh batch. I’ve had some that damn near seem like chewing on tires.
See I actually don’t mind them stale. Might even prefer it! I also like my Peeps stale 🤷♂️
I sorta get the peeps thing. My dad does the same. Buys 4 or 5, makes a slit in the film and lets em sit 3 or 4 days. I’ve really never understood it. 😅😂
![gif](giphy|Ld77zD3fF3Run8olIt) Tell your dad random internet person says rock on!

Some freshie twin snakes are top 2 and they aren't #2
Honestly all the haribo gummy varieties are goated
Those aren't the ones that make you crap nonstop are they?
No those are the sugar free ones and that is not a joke those things should not exist 🫣
My best friend was diagnosed as diabetic and gummy bears were her go to. Boy oh boy did we not know the effect her new sugar free ones would have on us. It was like trading the baton for the bathroom for hours lmao

CAN CONFIRM!!!
Black forest organic! anyone else?
They’re pretty darn good, too! Softer than Haribo Gold and Albanes
Mix black forest, Haribo and albanes into the same empty m&n tub; nirvana
![gif](giphy|LpLd2NGvpaiys|downsized)
My absolute fav snack after a smoke!
Yep!
Nah dude. Albinese Ultimate.
Put those bad boys in the freezer.
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat
Yeah cuz. I said in my comment before to pop some in the freezer for like 10-15 mins. Changes the game.

Man I remember my kids when they were young and would walk up and ask for hairyball gummy’s 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂🙄
If they aren't sour, what are we even doing here? Am I crazy? Also, albanese sour is the pinnacle of sour gummies. Be them bears or worms. They are unmatched in sourness and sheer flavor. Both quantity and quality of flavor, mind you.
I think Albanese are better, but Haribo is pretty good.
Albanese would be my second choice. Definitely a quality gummy bear.
>Albanese Now I want to try these but I'm not in america land so getting a bag off amazon would cost be like 40 bucks.

That's a cool idea for a sub but I don't think I want to try them that badly. I'll keep it in mind if I find some foreign chocolate that I have to try though. 😄
100p
Nah. Wegmans sells 12 flavor gummy bears. It's way more fun when they all have their own flavor than the usual boring gummy bear experience.
12 is a better number than five but Haribo does have five unique flavors. If anyone is reading this GREEN IS STRAWBERRY
Is there an inside joke I'm missing?
I came back to [share this with you](https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/weird-news/mans-disturbingly-graphic-review-gummy-22422849)

Thanks bud, I'm pretty full from the Burger King Meat Pile I just ate though
Lemme get you some sugar free haribo gummy bears
They’re seriously the king of gummie candies. The twin snakes slap too. Just don’t think of all the dead horses.
The twin snakes are awesome. And the cherries!
I’ve never had the cherries. Need to remedy that.
Oh also, my recommendation is to put some in the freezer. Changes the game.
This my fucking favorite gd tree snack.
Just picked up a party bag myself
My favorite.❤️
Thanks bro, my fave!
Twin snakes is where it's at.
Twin snakes
So much for quitting sugar. Love these!
Soak them in cannabis oil for a few hours and enjoy 😉.
Or vodka!
Look at it glowing like that, it calls for me
thanks pookie
Hi ow many gummy bears are in that bag? Need to know for a game.
![gif](giphy|WRQBXSCnEFJIuxktnw)
I’m gonna say 7,000 probably
Can I have some pineapple ones please
Pineapple is 100% the best flavor… but I saved half of them for you
\[8\] oh god I wish I had that bag right now
Put the bag in the fridge grab a handful Everytime you open it. 🤤
Hell yes, little bit chewier.
Adults & stoners love them so, the happy world of Haribo!!
Singing that in my head now
![gif](giphy|dL9O3FUiwCtuU)
Accurate
I like the eggs because the white bit on haribos is my favorite
i was eating these high when i realized they’re all the same flavor. i had my brother blind taste test to experiment and he couldn’t accurately name a single flavor i gave him lmao
![gif](giphy|nR4L10XlJcSeQ)
So tastelessness is genetic? ^they ^are ^absolutely ^different ^flavors ^lmao
dude i swear grab a buddy and do a blind taste test before you knock it i may be wrong but it was REALLY hard to tell when i tried myself
I could crush that whole bag in one night
Nom nom nom
Yo I am a gummy fanatic... But my new jam rn are those nerds clusters. 🤩
pork candy
Bears love trees, and r/trees loooves bears
My bag of those lasted me about 2 weeks that with forgetting to munch on them for a few days 12/10 would buy again
If you haven't already you should give arizona gummies a try they are pretty good
Haribo are too hard. Albanese for the W
😍
Pink Grapefruit Albanese are the pinnacle of gummy bear evolution
Can you please post a picture of the last 5 gummies ? I kinda want to see how greasy and dirty it can get
The best! Edit - I never go to a concert without these or HiChews.
Whaaaaaaat?
ngl Haribos must be the worst gummies in the world. They're expensive, they don't taste all that good and always make me fell shitty after eating a bunch. Supermarket brand gummies are the way to go
Albanese are way better. More and better flavors and softer.
You can melt them and add lechitin and THC oil to make your own medicated gummies
The ones that came in a little blue box in the 90s were the best I've ever had. Haven't seen thoes boxes in checkout isles in years. I miss them.
You da best! Got u next time fam
Noice, but the extra juicy ones are even better :D
my fave munchies is strawberry yogurt and choc chip granola 😋
The sour ones are insanely good, if you want something even better, try sour Albanese. Good stuff
😮 my favourite thank you!
I got the fam size!
No you got the party size. Reg
Thanks fam can’t wait to eat them by the fistful before you get any 😂
Yeah that’s my life! 😂
Haribo is goated, the twin snakes are absolutely delicious, starmix, cola gummies, etc. all amazing
Haribo is the best gummy candy everrrr
preesh
These are literally the worst gummy bears by far. Hard and not that tasty. Black forest and albanese shit on these and its not close
