Best gummis ever. At the factory you can get these deals as well as the "goof ups". These appear to just be regular stock of the seasonal items.

Agreed! Never heard of these gummies until I moved to Indiana a few years ago, still haven't gone to the factory yet, but its on my list!

I'm almost done with my 15 lbs of Easter gummies... brought a 5lb bag to California when I visited family earlier this year, they LOVED them. A few friends ended up ordering some bags themselves.

Factory is so worth the trip. They have even more stuff available there than they have on the website. I visit family out there every year, and come back with a bunch of stuff. I've gotten many friends hooked on the gummis. Haribo and other manufacturers pale in comparison. Luckily, I am starting to see the 12 flavor bears becoming available nationally now. Places like Walmart, Target, and Walgreens are carrying the regular bears and the worms. Some even have the regular sour bears

careful with those sugar-free gummies. they use maltitol, which has a glycemic index almost as high as sugar. 9 gummies is around 50% of your daily carb intake so it would be easy to go overboard and get kicked out of ketosis

if you want a more keto-friendly gummy, check out "smart sweets". you can get them online from many retailers, or in store at whole foods

I thought maltitol was a sugar alcahol and didn't count towards carbs

unfortunately not all sugar alcohols are created equally. check out the chart on https://www.myketocal.com/blog/su...enic-diet/ maltitol is the worst offender

glycemic index of various sweeteners (lower the better) https://hip2keto.com/tips/best-lo...weeteners/

Someone else already said it, but these are the best gummies I've ever had. My brother lives near the factory, and I stop there whenever I visit, and can sometimes get him to ship me some. The goof-ups are a ridiculous deal, wish they offered those online.

If you're looking to beef up your order, I recommend the following:

~Chocolate covered gummies
~Dark chocolate covered pretzel balls
~Any gummy rings (especially watermelon, strawberry banana, and peach, imo)
~Sherbert gummies

Not sure why I just bought 15 pounds of gummies, but for less than $1.50/lb, why not. Thanks OP.

Amen. We discovered these this summer when a Marriott had them stocked in the Concierge room. I haven't touched a Haribo gummi bear since then.

The triple dipped malted milk balls are ridiculously good too.
At the factory you are allowed to sample everything.
Definitely, worth a trip!

Ditto!

5 lbs for $6 end up costing $2.49/lb with shipping.

My local stores (Sprouts, Smart&Final) often sell the 12 flavors bear gummies for $1.99/lb, and I don't have to buy a ton.
