These are really delicious, and I love that they are gelatin-free. At only 80 calories per bag, they've been awesome for me as a sweet-tooth trying to improve my eating habits. I can snack on a bag all day, and feel good about my choice. The large amount of allulose per bag is interesting. I looked into allulose prior to purchasing it as I'm wary of artificial sweeteners and sugar substitutes. I found out that allulose, while as the package states is found (in very small amounts) in raisins and figs, is usually lab-created as a fructose derivative as opposed to being harvested from natural sources. It doesn't taste artificial to me and supposedly it's not absorbed by the body (which does make me wonder if too much would cause a similar effect to the notorious sugar-free Haribo?). I think the inclusion of Blue Oyster Mushroom is interesting. It's really starting to feel like every new brand chucks some mushrooms in just because it's the hype thing of the 2020's, but it's hard to complain when the included mushroom isn't an "adaptogen". I could do without it, but it doesn't bother me that it's included.

Works for Rbel Bee Honey Gummies
Hi Amy...thank you so much for taking the time to write this review. As the founder it means so much to me to get this feedback. We are focused on providing our customers with the highest possible quality of products. Our allulose is all-natural and comes from fruits such as raisins, figs, kiwis and jack fruit. Our allulose is also certified non-GMO and kosher. The dominant ingredient in our gummies is HONEY and each gummy as 2x more honey than allulose. You also don't have to worry about it being a sugar alcohol like the Haribo gummies you mentioned, it won't cause digestive issue. I'm glad you like the blue oyster mushrooms. As a person who suffers from insulin resistance when I have my sweets I just need them to do more for me than satisfy my sweet craving and I thought if I needed it maybe others would too. The mushrooms are organic, dried and shredded and added to our gummies. They're have potassium, iron, fiber, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, B6, vitamin D2 and selenium. They also contain amino acids that help promote brain health (And boy! Some days I need it.) š I'm glad you like my noteāit's important to me that you know how much I appreciate your order and you know it's coming right from me. Thank you again! ā¤ļø Joline Founder of Rbel Bee Sweets.
