I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised. After being on my KETO diet for a few weeks my body was hankering for something sweet (and I’m a bit of a gummy addict), so my wife suggested these after seeing them on Amazon. On a whim I ordered them and they have just the right consistency and taste that you’d expect from a good gummy. They’re not overly sweet which (to me) is a bonus. Great job!Not like real gummies, but really good for Keto friendly. Small portion.Being diabetic...these allow me a sweet treat without the worry of sugar spikes! High fiber low carb. Fresh and very tasty!Softer than Haribo, but still satisfyingly chewy. Flavors are subtler, but very nice. Very happy with these.I like sweets! But trying to stay away from sugar. If you're looking for something that tastes like original gummie bears? This is not it. Lol But they are not bad. It does help to curb sweet cravings.- chewy and sweet- healthy fit- helps my cravings for sugerSo ill begin here, this diet is hard to find stuff like this, so when I bought these, and they arrived, I was like a kid in a candy store, no pun intended. I ate two bags right away and was pleased with the taste and consistency, very nice. Shortly later it was as if satan spawned out of my insides with Russia's nuclear bombs. I expect this from time to time however I was not prepared for the storm awaiting me…. I do not want to diverge intro to much detail but Ill say this, if you consume these, you might as well be eating miralax. I highly recommend these for colonoscopy prep or perhaps a way to get out of a bad date. All in all, you may ask would I buy these again?? That depends, probably yes but only if another shutdown happens however that brings me to my next point, if you buy these, plan on buying extra charmin.I will give these a total 4 of 5, i would glady give 5 out of 5 if you include charmin.These are really good. I'm really trying to cut back on sugar and these allow me to still have candy that tastes like candy! It made me search out other things from this brand.I usually don't write reviews, but you only get 9 bears in one bag. I mean come on - who eats 9 gummy bears in one serving.Other brands sell almost double the weight for less than double the price.This brand is 22.5gHerbaland and SmartSweets are 50gOk fine I paid too much for gummies, they should taste great right? Wrong. They taste like dollar store gummies with a kind of waxy taste and dusty texture, not bouncy and chewy. They come in red, green, and orange but the flavors are not distinct or memorable, but they all just tasted mildly sweet.Very disappointing all around.I am comparing these to the Smart Sweets as the latter are the most popular keto gummies.I stopped eating Smart Sweets because it contains tapioca which can have an impact on insulin.So I looked at Kiss my Keto’s ingredients, and found them to be safe. I ordered a box.I initially thought the price per bag was great - but you only get 9 tiny pieces per bag, which is nothing.The flavours you get are random among the three, I had bags with only two out of the three flavours.The gummies taste pretty good, but they are very hard in texture, which takes away from some enjoyment. Seriously, chewing them was a little rough.The last thing I want to mention is the presence of Chicory Root Fiber. It is keto friendly in the sense that it does not count as net carb. However, it can make you want to go to the bathroom real fast.I knew about this, but I tried anyway to experiment. If I eat one bag of it, I feel okay (but one bag really isn’t much).Another time, I tried eating three bags... and had to run straight to the bathroom.I really wanted to love these gummies, as I crave a good keto gummy (I don’t like home made gummies made of jello).But these aren’t the answer for me.If you want these as a quick snack-to-go, I highly suggest you cancel all your plans because the only place you’ll be going quickly, is to the bathroom. I initially bought these to try as a snack but after discovering their powerful poopy side effects, I now use them solely to cleanse my guts. They do a 5 star job if that.I would not recommend eating these around people or in any kind of public setting unless you’re into public humiliation (I don’t k!nk shame) and strongly advise against eating them while driving/ on a road trip or you’ll be leaving skid marks on more than just the road.But if you’re looking for a yummy way to evacuate the deepest depths of your bowels, these are a wonderful option!Happy dumping! :)These caused horrible gastric distress. Painful bloating and gas cramps that lasted all night followed by diarrhea in the morning. Might as well have eaten those sugar free haribo gummies everyone talks about. I made the terrible mistake of eating these a couple hours before an MRI. I had to force myself to lay still for 30 min even though every fibre of my being wanted to writhe with pain. What a nightmare. Avoid at all costs! I’ll also note that none of the ingredients alone normally bother me. I usually tolerate inulin and MCT oil fine but the combination they have concocted is like some perverse form of torture.Tried these gummies because the price was right and they are way more keto then smart sweets,However it’s a bag full of gastric issues! If you love painful gas and bloating these are right up your ally...... seriously though save your money and your stomach do NOT buy these!!!!!!
