The Great Gummy Cleanse
Let me start by saying that we all appreciate gummy candies from time to time. We didn't necessarily need or want 5 lbs of gummy bears, but we were also morbidly curious about the most outrageous product reviews on the internet.
We are an active bunch, so a sugar free option seemed to align to our healthy lifestyle. We came to the conclusion that most of the reviews were outdated and exaggerated. Surely Haribo would have tweaked the formulation. Right??
Nope, wrong. We were so wrong. The fateful day arrived, and a massive 5lb bag of glistening, innocuous looking, colorful little gummy bears was delivered. We decided that we would give them a try after lunch. Big mistake. Without going into too much detail, it was clear that this sugar free treat downright dangerous to eat after a meal. If you decide to walk this line, just understand that you don't need to eat many to produce your own 'gummy factory'. The onset timing seemed to be variable between the three of us - from about 30 minutes to 3 hours, but rest assured, the end result was the same for all of us. The reviews are real. Very, very real. And if you do happen to add this to your cart, also go ahead and stock up on wet wipes while you are at it. Your future self will thank you - trust me.
tl;dr - this product will unquestionably turn your colon into a veritable slip 'n slide.
