Top positive review. Reviewed in the United States on June 2, My flight was leaving at 8 in the morning. After awaking and trying to get to the airport, I forgot to grab something to eat. I usually take my time and do things in order, but not this day. I was traveling from Boston to LA coming home from a work trip.
I do it regularly so nothing was new to me. I stayed in the same hotel and knew the time I needed to leave to get to the airport on time.
During my work trip, I stopped at a convenience store and saw these gummy bears and thought they would be a perfect gift for my son Charlie. He loves gummy bears and gummy worms. So the morning I was to head back to LA, I slept through my alarm. That never happens.
I rushed to get out of the hotel and threw those gummies in my carry on bag to make it on time to the airport. After speeding and filling up gas in the rental, I made it to my gate as they were boarding.
I get on the plane and head down the aisle to find my window seat near the middle of the plane. I asked politely for the two adorable older ladies siting in the middle and aisle seats if I could pass by to my seat. They obliged. The lady in the middle must have been around 80 years old so it took her some time to get up and make sure she was holding on to something so she didn't fall as she stepped into the aisle.
I thanked them as I sat and settled into my seat. Fast forward 20 minutes as we reach our cruising altitude of around 30, feet in the air. As I reach into my carry on bag to grab my headphones, I see the gummy bears. Since I am hungry and need something, I decided to open them up and just have a few to hold me over until we land. I wanted to save some for my son so I maybe had 4 or 5. But I had 4 or 5 too many because once the bears had a few minutes to adjust to their new home, they began to work.
It started out with a little cramp. Which is normal with gassing on a plane. You do not want to fart on a plane so you hold it in. It is airplane etiquette. It would come and go over a few minutes so I thought nothing of it.
Then it got worse. The cramps intensified, the sweating started, and I began to notice the older ladies looking over at me. About 30 minutes into eating these bears, my thinking went from, "Oh these are just farts, I can hold them," to "Oh dear God not here. If there is a God, please help me leave this plane with my dignity intact. After waiting for the intense cramp wave to pass, I stood up and jump over those two women. I could not wait for them to stand so I stood up, my back facing them and tried to shimmy pass them.
I think a toot came out cause I heard one say, "Oh Lord, was that you? To my dismay, it was in use. That left one bathroom left in the front. I looked down the aisle and saw my Mt.
I had to somehow keeps my wet cheeks tighter than Fort Knox whilst waddling forward, whilst praying no one gets out of their seats. After 5 minutes of stop and go, I made it to the bathroom and was pulling my pants down as I entered the bathroom. The door was still unlocked as the sweet release was underway.
I thought I died. I thought this was it. Even though I was on the throne confessing my sins, I thought my time was called. I lost count on how many knocks at the door there was. I must have been in there for 45 minutes, but I made it. I washed my hands, and threw water in my face to calm me down. Opening the door, I saw the faces looking back at me. Apparently the seal to the bathroom was not air tight. Letting just the slightest airflow from that bathroom to the main cabin possible.
These were daughters, mothers, and children looking at me. I could feel their questions and comments. He said, "Hey man, where is your seat? I had a family at home waiting for me. I recommend theses bears to anyone. But please eat them responsibly. Top critical review. Reviewed in the United States on October 11, I ate half of a 6 oz bag I picked up at CVS. They changed the color of the bag.
I didn't know. I spent 24 hours in the fetal position on my bathroom floor repeating "please God, why? Sort by. Top rated Most recent Top rated. Filter by.

I bought a bag of these delicious Satan snacks, and they took me back to the past. It took me back to the day Pompeii erupted, instead of lava there was hot brown liquid feces exploding out of what could be the black pit of hell. Verified Purchase. Bought these after reading the reviews and decided to prank my cousin. It worked like a charm, after eating handfuls he was on the toilet for days.
He continued to eat them not knowing they were the cause of his explosive diarrhea. Only when he finished the bag did I decide to reveal my secret. Did you hear that sonic boom?
Yeah, that was me after 3 of these. One of our beloved physicians brought a bag of gummy bears to work to share with the staff one night shift. Not realizing they were the famous dreaded sugar free gummies multiple staff throughout the shift grabbed a handful of gummies while passing by and each have their own near miss stories but this is mine The next morning I have to run an errand about and hour and a half from my house.
On the drive home down a curvy back country road my stomach suddenly begins to cramp and I feel the immediate urge to empty my bowels.
Frantic, as I realize Im not going to make it home I start searching for a place to pull over.
Customer Review. Luke · out of 5 stars See And there they sat: two bags of Haribo Sugar-Free Gummi Bears, buy one get one free. "What a deal!" I thought. Why on earth would anyone buy these sugar-free bears after reviewers warned not to eat more than 15 at a time "unless you are trying to power.
But as Michael Rusch at Buzzfeed points out, the negative reviews are terrifying enough to keep customers away forever. About reviewers claimed to spend hours in the bathroom after ingesting the bears. Quantities didn't matter—some reviewers claimed they ate a handful, while others consumed entire bags. We've reached out to the company to ask about the claims made by reviewers, and will update if we get a response.

In the words of my good friend Oprah, there are a few things in life I know for sure: Pink Starbursts are infinitely better than yellow and orange, grape is the only Fanta worth drinking, and white gummy bears are without a doubt the best kind of gummy bear. Fight me on the soda thing, but don't even try and argue with me about the gummies. They're so good, I honestly didn't even know they were pineapple flavored—they're just sweet little orbs of goodness, flavor profile be damned.

Why Are These Gummy Bears Making People So Sick?
Photos by Meredith Jenks. There has been lots of talk on the internet about Haribo sugarfree gummy bears and how they make you make shit like a madman. According to these detailed Amazon reviews , just a handful of the bears can cause an immediate evacuation of the gastrointestinal tract. There are 53 pages of reviews on Amazon, each one topping the last with a story of gummy-fueled diarrhea nightmares. That stench is from me, seven years ago. I'm no avid Amazon shopper or reader of online reviews, but I've scanned my share and have never seen anything close to the kind of in-depth reporting that's found on the Haribo sugarfree gummy bear Amazon reviews page. The metaphors are akin to something John Donne would have written after a particularly stinging shit. This whole thing seemed like a stupid internet hoax—an excuse for people to pen elaborate fictions about their somewhat irregular but ultimately harmless gummy bear-induced shits.

Sugarless Gummy Bears Are Not Safe for Humans
Many of you are familiar with these colorful German Gummies. Apparently, the sugar free substitute in these delicious bears results in consumers experiencing gastric disasters like no other. Oh man…words cannot express what happened to me after eating these. If you are someone that can tolerate the sugar substitute, enjoy. If you are like the dozens of people that tried my order, RUN! First of all, for taste I would rate these a 5. So good. Soft, true-to-taste fruit flavors like the sugar variety…I was a happy camper. Cramps, sweating, bloating beyond my worst nightmare. Then came the, uh, flatulence. Heavens to Murgatroyd, the sounds, like trumpets calling the demons back to Hell…the stench, like 1, rotten corpses vomited. What came out of me felt like someone tried to funnel Niagara Falls through a coffee straw. I swear my sphincters were screaming. It felt like my delicate starfish was a gaping maw projectile vomiting a torrential flood of toxic waste. Flammable liquid.
Beware Of The 5 lb. Bag Of Sugarless Gummy Bears On Amazon.com - The Reviews Are Priceless!
But I am bound by my journalistic ethics to bring you all the latest news and, this week, gastrointestinal distress is in the news in the form of Haribo Sugarless Gummi Bears and their explosive effects on heretofore innocent colons. To be truthful, this isn't new news. I read the comments on the 5-pound bag of Haribo bears last year and laughed 'til I was suffering from cramps myself. I only said Southern ladies don't discuss toilet habits. Not that we can't laugh about them. But in the past week, several blogs and some legit news sites have written about the hilariously disturbing customer reviews on amazon.
