Haribo: The Smurfs

During my weekly shop today I came across this 'Smurf' version of Haribo in my local Co-Operative.....and for £1 you can't turn them down!


Typical of Haribo recently, these sweets aren't totally unhealthy for you or your children as they have no artificial colours and are just fruit flavoured gums! The bag is 220g, and every 100g consumed is equal to 343 calories........so not totally healthy either! 


In the bag, there are 3 different variations of smurf, a yellow, white and red headed smurf as shown above...they look pretty adorable and for once actually look like what Haribo are selling!
Now onto the taste, unfortunately no matter how 'cool' the idea of smurf Haribo's are, the taste totally lets them down. 


Before tasting each smurf, I assumed that the red headed smurf may taste of strawberry or raspberry, the yellow headed may taste of lemon and the white headed may taste of pineapple or some other fruity flavour. How wrong was I?
They taste of absolutely nothing. NOTHING! They are literally just a chewy jelly in your mouth shaped like smurfs....definite let down!
Overall, smurf shaped Haribo are an ingenious idea and children would love them...IF they added some flavouring in and we weren't just chewing flavourless jelly.

Would I buy these again? NO.
