SOUR PATCH KIDS Watermelon Soft & Chewy Candy, 8 oz

I'm not gonna lie, I bought this bag of Sour Patch Kids Watermelon with the full intention of hiding them from my kids. Parenting is all about survival, right? The 8 oz bag is the perfect size for that—small enough to stash in the nightstand, but big enough to feel like you actually got a treat. First impressions: the texture is exactly what you want. They have that classic Sour Patch crunch on the outside when you first bite down, and then they soften up into that chewy, gummy consistency. The watermelon flavor is pretty spot-on. It's not artificial tasting in a bad way—it's more like a juicy watermelon Jolly Rancher, just with the signature sour kick. My only complaint is that some pieces in the bag had barely any sour sugar on them. If you're someone who loves that face-puckering experience, you might get a few duds that are more sweet than sour. I tried a few, then my husband found them, and now we're in a silent war over who finished the bag. They're soft, easy to chew (no tough spots), and don't get stuck in your teeth too badly. I just hope the next bag I buy is consistently coated. If you're a watermelon candy fan, these hit the spot.
