Sweetarts® Gummies Candy: UCLA Bruins

A great way to represent your Bruin pride with these snacks. The texture of the gummies could be more on the softer side, but nevertheless, it's a viable snack.

I just find snacks like gummies a nice treat when you don't want to eat a big meal, nor want to go hungry. Because of the school system I had to live with back in the nineties, I've grown used to working myself to the bone. Yeah, I know, that's a very unhealthy way of being productive, but when you have to arrive at school at 7:45AM with your first class starting at 8AM, one has barely enough time to munch on a meal to hold you over until lunch time (finishing your homework the night before, then waking up on time, getting ready, dealing with morning traffic, etc). Only made me wish that awesome snacks like these thrived during my school career. Okay, okay, I know there are other snacks I could've considered, but hey, food companies didn't care about their products having too much or too little sugar content.

As you can tell, this isn't just another bag of gummies. This SweeTarts product is the UCLA Bruins version, featuring shapes representing the popular university in southern California. Being that collegiate sports are garnering all the viewership and attention, in comparison to what's going on in the world of professional sports, it's the best time to talk about this.

The pieces are delicious and trigger the sweet buds on your tongue (yeah, it's spelled tongue, not "tounge"). The gummies also have a little creme-like base on each piece to balance the fruity taste. However, depending on where you store this bag, the gummies can get a little rigid making it tough to chew at times. I find that a bit disappointing since I liked the addage of that creme bottom under each piece. If anything, I'd say SweeTarts ought to take a page from Sunny D's gummies.

With that critique, presumptuous college sports fans will land on this page, skip reading the review, see our rating and blast me for being a hater, thinking I'm a USC Trojans fan. This is about the food, not team spirit. (If anyone cares to know, my father attended and graduated from UCLA.) Then again, people won't have the energy to read this part, thus linking to this page and spreading the word on how discriminating I am to Bruins fans. That's the kind of society we live in, isn't it? Don't read and don't think, just assume and discriminate others who aren't like you!

As long as you keep this at room temperature, the gummies should remain soft and tender. The pieces don't soften well after refrigeration, so eat them when the time is right and when the gummies feel softer than normal.
