 Gastrointestinal ArmageddonNov 23, 2009
By QuadEddie
When I got these, I couldn't contain my excitement and I ate about a quarter of a bag. Scenes from the movie 2012 could have been filmed inside my gut. There would have been less pressure to make two winning free throws in the NBA finals than for gas to escape my bowels. After a few hours, I had an EXTREME build-up of gas with no relief. All I could do was lie on my bed and pray for a fart. That might sound funny, but when you've eaten something that has basically turned you into the blueberry girl from Willy Wonka, you're pleading for relief. Well, the farts came and I lived through it but I not only had a visit from the fart fairy, but the sales rep from Montezuma's Revenge stopped by and gave me a FULL demo of their services as well.
In retrospect, eating over a pound all at once wasn't the brightest thing I've done (but it also wasn't the dimmest). If I go back and finish the bag off, I'll probably leave a suicide note.

 Tastes great, makes you fartFeb 15, 2007
By Z. Ragsdale

These taste just as good as the sugar ones to me. The best part is that it gives you tons of gas, which is really fun when around friends. Just make sure you don't eat these before a job interview or something.

Very close to the real thing.Oct 27, 2006
By M. Edgar
"linksman5"
I lived in Germany and have consumed my share of gummi bears. :) These sugar free bears are very good. This type of candy suits itself to sugar free treatment. Much like hard candy. You don't get the big taste difference like you do with lots of the chocolate sugar free treats.
A word on some of the reviews listed here on Amazon... Sugar Free candies are not meant to be eaten by the handfull. Sugar Free is mostly made for people that can't process the Sugar and people that are in this category have all learned from experience, you don't eat Sugar Free sweets in any large amount.
I have a mild case of Type II which I am gratefully able to control by diet alone and can tell you personally that these candies are very good if you are in a Gummi mood. The affect on my blood sugar is typical of this sort of treat. Just as I wouldn't eat 50 carbs of anything, a snack of this type is only around 10 bears.
People living with health issues concerning Blood Sugar understand the requirement. Those just looking to cut carbs or lose a bit of weight may want to re-think eating most sugar free treats and look into other type of sweets to satisfy.

 Excellent candy to keep around the office for greedy co-workersApr 17, 2007
By Andrew Schaefer
I bought 10lbs of these bears while I was doing the "Atkins thing"... and I found the same gastric issues that others experienced. However, we like to keep them around the office for newbies to experience. They're so tasty that people will sit at your desk and snarf down a whole bowl full. We'd warn them not to eat too many, but they'd just nod and keep munching. The next day they're a believer in moderation. Apparently we're all masochists as we ate all 10lbs in a month regardless of side-effects.

Made me sickJun 13, 2006
By Luke Meyers
They're delicious, but after I ate a few handsful, a couple hours later I started to feel really sick. I spent the whole rest of the day suffering painful gastrointestinal distress. I believe this is an occasional side-effect of the sugar substitute (branded Lycasin(tm)). If you don't have a problem with Lycasin, go right ahead and munch away. If you don't know, I'd try them in small quantities first to make sure they don't cause you any problems.
