  • Better Sour's probiotic gummies have improved my digestion after workouts. The tangy-sweet flavor is enjoyable, but they're quite sticky and can melt together in warmer temperatures. But they are yummy and interesting.

  • Tried their Guava flavor and it was pretty good. Not too sour which is a bit different from what they write on their product name but I favor least sourness so it's good. The ingredients are clean and low calories so it would be a better for you option of gummies!

  • I was pleasantly surprised by how good these tasted for how little sugar is in these. I could definitely see this replacing my sweet treat at the end of the night. They tasted like sour gummy candies, but didn't have the gross aftertaste and overly sugary taste of other brands.

  • I really loved these. The flavors are fun and I like that they are super sour. I ate the bag over several days but I loved them!

  • I feel I am always on the hunt for a good, low-sugar gummy. These flavors are really compelling (love the Guava) but I'm a stickler for texture. The texture is quite rubbery and sticky, making it hard to chew and not feel like it's stuck in your back molars. I'm giving them a 3 instead of a 2 because I find that to be true for MOST low-sugar gummy products and their flavors really are cool. Just know the texture isn't like your favorite gummy worm.

  • I love the taste and flavor of these candies and like that they are made with healthier ingredients. These are great when you are craving something sweet, but don't want a lot of sugar.

  • The sourness of the moment you put it in your mouth becomes a habit

  • only good healthy gummy!! Love all of these so much! wish they were in more stores.

  • I wish for two things when it comes to Better Sour: 1. It would come in a bigger bag 2. It was widely available in multiple retailers I first tried Better Sour as a sample at SXSW a couple of years ago in the vendor space. I'm glad I did! It is the most delicious gummies, in my opinion, and the flavors are really unique. I'm not familiar with Iranian-American food or flavors, so I feel like I get a glimpse of that with these candies. I truly have to restrain myself from eating the whole bag in one sitting in order to savor it. I couldn't recommend these enough.

  • I've tried both bags of this brand's candy, and they're both great. I personally like the green bag one more because it offers more interesting and exotic flavors, whilst the purple bag one gives more familiar flavors. The price for each bag is on par with other "specialty" candy bags like these. I was disappointed that these don't taste sour at all to me. I love sour, and these did nothing for me in that aspect.

  • The first bite may taste sour, but rest doesn't really taste sour. At least it is not too sweet. The shape makes it easier to suck till it melts. The gummy sticks a little to teeth when chewed upon. It's bit hard to distinguish the different flavors in the bag, since it suppose to be sour and the texture of the gummies are quite firm. So all three flavors tasted the same to me. The price point is bit high for the package.

  • I wanted to like this. I like sour stuff but these weren’t very sour. I also didn’t like the flavors in the package. The texture was too chewy for me too

  • I bought these candies on a whim at Target and was pleasantly surprised by how good they were. They were not overly sour, so if you’re looking for a sour treat, this one probably won’t scratch the itch. However, the flavors are strong and distinct. They aren’t cheap but they are delicious.

  • Honestly I feel like these weren’t bad for a healthier sour gummy. The texture and flavor is more like a dried fruit. But I enjoy the sourness on top! I’d recommend a try!

  • I tried the green pack of gummies, and I really enjoyed these. The perfect amount of tart. It was a great snack.

  • The best "better for you" gummies on the market. The pink packet are my favorite.

  • the calamansi flavor was insane, i really like the new flavor concepts for these sours!
