Normally I don't share things like these, but I just found it so....I'll let you make up your own mind.

My thoughts on those reviews XD Guess someone thought it was a brilliant idea to make a 5 lb bag of candie (which we all know people will eat in large quantities) with laxative.

**SagesStone**

Probably have a lot of sorbitol in them which is usually the case for sugarless things which are still sweet.

**Ouze**

I'd have gotten them for the office, but $36 is a bit much for a prank.

**Snrub**

Best.
Review.
EVER!

**LordofHats**

No you fool! People are going to die from too much laughter XD

Lost it when I read that.

**wowsmash**

ah I don't care how old I get poo humor is still the funniest. I don't think its specific to that particular batch. I had a similar issue from a bag bought at the store some years ago. It seems to be worse with the sugar free ones though. Eat in moderation and you'll be fine.

**timetowaste85**

I'm considering buying a bag of these. My boss is a good friend and he snacks on everything that comes into the office. He has a craving for sugar-free treats...hehehe

Okay, I'm not actually that evil. But I'm considering it.

**Dreadclaw69**

I wonder how many more of these were sold since all the funny reviews started?

**carlos13th**

Who doesn't know that sugar free sweets give you the gaks if you eat too many.

**SagesStone**

Poor unfortunate people who have to learn it the hard way.

**Chancetragedy**

Great google moogly this was AMAZING!!!

**Jimsolo**

I laughed so hard I cried.

**MrMoustaffa**

Oh god, I worked at Amazon for a good months during the holiday season.

They sold a ton of these. I know because I must have picked at least 20 on my own, and I saw others picking them too.

I don't know whether to laugh or feel guilty

On the other hand, they'll last a long time.

You could probably milk it out for years, assuming you kept the bears in a sealed bag.

I'm glad I don't like gummi bears for the reason this stuff is an ingredient:

**LordofHats**

Hey man. My dog eats bones and he loves them

**Jehan-reznor**

Those who dare to eat sugarless gummy bears should be punished!

**AduroT**

Oh man, I had a similar result with a sugar free honey.

**TheDraconicLord**

I'm so glad I don't like sugarless Gummy Bears

Oh man, I so want to drop one of this things in my office

then it would be a case of

Reading this at work was one of the worst decisions I’ve made in a while. I brought a whole new meaning to the abbreviation ROFL. I laughed so hard I gave myself Asthma and almost defecated in my work pants. I felt a strain go from my neck to my ankle as I was convulsing in my chair in tiers of laughter in both happiness and horror. I need to log off now to make sure I did not drool all over my pants and gun belt.

What's wrong with using more parts of an animal we have killed already for its filet? The gelatin made from bones (skin, etc) is used in many desserts and other food and might therefore be part of your diet anyway.
Unless you are a vegan of course.

**Soladrin**

I'll just stick to my regular gummi bears... soaked in wodka.

Um...right! Everybody knows that!

Seriously folks, you have no idea. No idea. It's crazy what dumb stuff comes with a big, clear warning label, and that these don't. They'll incapacitate you for an afternoon.

NO IDEA.

**marv335**

I'm buying a bag of these.
At work we have loads of Saudis who will steal anything not nailed down.

I am so looking forward to this.
