Name it retro, name it a flashback, name it “tried and true,” or just name it Swedish Fish with Snapple Fruit Taste Combine. Nonetheless you method these (new to me) comfortable chew gummy-like candies, you’ll like them if the fishies are your factor. However, in case you are like me, you’ll be left wanting a bit extra sass in taste city.
It’s potential my telephone digital camera is weak (it is a couple of years outdated) however I can’t get previous the muted colours. Swedish Fish generally is thought for the sorta foggy colours — these aren’t brilliant and glossy Haribo Gold Bears – I do know that getting into — however these nonetheless don’t cry out, “Eat me!”
I can get previous mid colours when the style is spot on. And I felt optimistic about Snapple flavors. I began ingesting Snapple iced teas within the 90’s, watching Seinfeld (I convey this up as a result of there was a semi-running gag about Snapple on the present).
The teas, IMHO, have been Snapple’s greatest drinks (and Mint Tea the highest of the leaderboard). The corporate pivoted fairly shortly although to tackle the final fruit drink market. And if I’m not mistaken, they launched the Kiwi Strawberry taste approach again when. (So says my AI helper…who likes to lie.. so…) These Snapple flavored Swedish Fish embody the Kiwi Snapple taste so I felt like there’s a lotta good probably happening. Needed to be one thing right here.
And but…. eh.
These are advantageous. They’ve the Swedish Fish look (we lined that above), the Swedish Fish really feel (jelly-soft-like-chewy-stick-to-your-teeth kind of gummy), and the general Swedish Fish taste profile (a tad sweeter than different gummies and an aftertaste that’s arduous to explain, however everyone knows it when we’ve it). Add within the Snapple taste and also you get? A basic tasting new kind of Swedish Fish.
I couldn’t actually inform they have been Snapple flavors. Nor which was which. There are three — Mango Insanity and Fruit Punch together with Kiwi Strawberry. They usually’re all Okay. Missed alternative to convey extra ‘buzz’ to the flavors, a tinge of one thing that will make me go “AWwww yeah – now THIS is Snapple.”
When you like Swedish Fish, and all of us are likely to a bit, give these Snapple variations a go. However know getting into these are extra novel than vital deal with.
Now in the event that they made a Mint Tea model, I’d be singing a distinct music.
