Starburst® Fruit Chews Original 7.2oz Bag

"Great fruit taste, real fruit juice!" Well I would imagine that if you use real fruit juice, it obviously is gonna taste like fruit.


First, as always here at AFCR, the bag review. This one was a bit of a let down. It's like the bag is made of chewing gum. For approximately the first inch of rippy bit, it is a nice constant flow of rippage. Then, the malleable waxy plastic texture takes place and the force necessary to rip said bag nearly doubles. Then after one does achieve opening of the bag, a big no-no at AFCR is encountered: DOUBLE WRAPPING. Yes, in addition to the grody exterior bag, there is internal wrapping as well. However, this wrapping is not too shabby, being easy to peel and unlikely to leave residue on the candie it is concealing. One might describe the surface as waxy on bottom, which is the fancy way to say dis stuff ain't leavin' no sticky. 

The candy itself lives up to its claim of using real fruit juice, as the taste buds can tell an underlying juiciness which can only be achieved by using said real fruit. This creates a very rich flavorful blast. Below is my ranking of flavours:



And of course, my personal favourite...


Overall rating: B
