what brand of Gummi Bears?
Stupid question but is there much of a difference? The Costco gummy bears are pretty tasty though.

Yep, there's a difference. The worst tasting ones are those from WaWa.

It depends on how you like your gummy bears. If you like the really soft ones, the costco black forest brand is for you. If you like yours slightly harder then Haribo is for you. I just bought 15 lbs of Haribo. <3
Hot deal on regular price but they have these on sale for .99cents/5 oz. bag periodically at WalMart and Vons. Less variety at local stores though.

Nice math.
11.82 w/ .99 cents S/H comes out to be 2.56 a lb. vs 3 bucks for 3 bags = yes, not much of a deal
You won't have to deal with 4 extra lbs. of empty calories either.

Not all of us can be good at math.
Let's see...
5 lbs for the Amazon deal x 16 oz/lb = 90 oz for the Amazon bag
90 oz (Amazon)/ 5oz a bag (WalMart) = 18 of the WalMart bags in order to get the same amount as one Amazon 5 lb bag
18 bags x 99 cents/bag = $17.82 is what you what you would need to spend at WalMart in order to get 5 lbs.
$17.82 (WalMart) vs 12.81 (Amazon)---which one is less?
Icefoxx said: WTF! Did you read the reviews of the sugarless gummi bears? They seem to make your stomach explode along with your toilet.
It comes with a safety warning: "Made with Lycasin, a sugar alcohol. As with other sugar alcohols, people sensitive to this substance may experience upset stomachs."
These people are obviously pigging out on these things. It takes quite a bit of sugar alcohol to get GI problems, but it's not unheard of. Yet another reason sugar replacements are problematic.

Some people are a little better at math too yukyuk needs to fix his math 5 x 16 equals 80 not 90 lol
Gummi Bears? I love 'em, but they don't love me. I'd need to go into hibernation for a season to get rid of the belly fat. My favorite flavor is the white bears, which is pineapple apparently. I enjoy Haribo since they are a bit chewier.
Chewy stuff is the best! I sometimes buy a pack of RedVines and leave them out to open air, and they get nice and chewy. Sometimes I can't wait, and put them in the freezer.
Barbiedawl said: I can't get the code to work for me Haribo Gummi Candy Gold-Bears, 5-Pound Bag $14.77 - Quantity: 1 - Not in stock; order now and we'll deliver when available
last time i was going to order a 5 lb bag from Amazon, i ended up finding a 3 lb bag at my local target for $7. that ends up being 2.33 + tax for each pound, which is only a little big more than the Amazon deal, and less than the price of the 5 lb bears on Amazon at the time. just another option for those of you not wanting 5 lbs of bears... i found the 3 lbs to be plenty (and got sick of them about 1.5 lbs through the bag).
and for those of you who compare haribo to black forest - you guys apparently have no taste buds. haha. okay, i know, it's preference, but i really don't think the black forest ones taste the same. the flavors are not as addicting as the haribo flavors. and so what if haribo bears are harder - all you need to do is warm them up before you eat them (stick them in your pocket or something, lol ). i don't like black forest. but i'm addicted to haribo.
on a tangent, i used to eat the heidi ones, which kinda resemble black forest, but tasted better. anyone know where one could find those gummi bears?
Just got me a tiny bag of Haribro gummies from the grocery store. These are much better than Blackforest. I think I've only eaten this brand a few times before, definitely sticking to this brand. Its made in Turkey if that matters.
The vending machine at my office stocks some cheapo brand made in China

exactly.....I also find that 5lbs are way too many gummies. I will just end up eating more than I need to consume.
A small bag every once in awhile is more than enough even though it costs more in the long run.
