Sanctioned By WASAW Snack Committee

Reviewed By: Paddy O' Poppycock

Location: Vending Machine

OFFICIAL NAME OF SNACK:
Farley's Fruit Snacks -- Strawberry

PRICE: $.65

WEIGHT: 2.5 oz.

DESCRIPTION OF SNACK:
Little mini-sized gummi strawberries with a very chewy, gummi-like texture.

SSI RATING
(SNACK SATISFACTION INDEX - 1-10): 9

 

UPSIDE:

No fat, very sweet-tasting, nice chew factor. If you like Gummi Life Savers or Gummie Bears, these are even easier to chew. Consistency make take some getting used to for some, but for me, it was divine. I've actually had dreams where I'm walking through a field of strawberry fruit snacks and suddenly they all start singing how delicious they are to me. At least I think it was a dream.

Enriched with Vitamins C, E and Beta Carotene.

DOWNSIDE:

None really, although it's not the snack for everyone. If you're a jackass, for instance.

1ST 4 INGREDIENTS:

Fruit (Grapes, Strawberries)
Corn Syrup
Sucrose
Gelatin

LAST 4 INGREDIENTS:

Alpha Tocopherol Acetate (Vitamin E)
Beta Carotene (Vitamin A)
Natural and Artificial Flavors
Red 40

PACKAGING:

Fun, reds and pinks look healthy, yet flavorful.

DO I RECOMMEND YOU TRY THIS YOURSELF? (YES/NO - EXPLAIN):

Yes, at least once, then decide for yourself. I've bought this product four straight days -- a Paddy O' first!

WHICH SOUTH PARK CHARACTER WOULD LIKE IT BEST?:

School nurse.

HOW CAN THE PRODUCT BE IMPROVED:

For me, it can't. Although there are a few snack pieces that aren't quite "right". Still taste fine, but aren't quite as chewy. Think the green potato chip in every bag.
