Gummies V.S. Fruit Snacks(mini rant)
Fairy_Mochi Wed Sep 12, 2012 6:36 pm
I think they're the same thing. Some gummies nowadays are made with real fruit. Just like "fruit snacks". And gummies are shaped like animals. Just like "fruit snacks". Let's all face it; they're the same thing! It's just that some people want to call some brands "fruit snacks" to make them seem healthier. They're gummies. End of story. And they're not really healthier than gummies if you take time to read the box. Those things are loaded with sugar. So much for "healthy fruit snacks". Tch.
Want do you think? Are fruit snacks basically just gummies with a different name or are they actually something different? Despite the resemblance and chewy consistency that is.

I agree. The only reason they made those fruit snack were to create a similar treat to substitute gummies, but apparently healthy. Lies! 
They're still a good treat once and awhile... especially the PoM gummies.

I don't know, usually my gummies are actually fruit juice mixed with beef gelatin. Or colouring, flavouring and gelatin. Either way our gummies are mostly of bovine origin. As for fruit snacks... I don't even bother considering them as something to eat. Mostly as something for my so-called health conscious father to guzzle when he gets hungry, while I'm having gumies for snacks. He claims they're healthier than my gummies.
Wait till he finds out.

Well I did a career test and it said I'm best suited as a software engineer. Hey, maybe I could design something totally POM-themed if I actually get to that 
That aside, I have no idea why my dad's so health-conscious. He's an airplane engineer. My mom is even forcing me to drink some sort of weird fruit juice which tastes all funny and sour (according to the box it even contained some weird fruits like pineapple, I mean, have any one of you heard of pineapple juice?!) and she claims it helps me with.... just about everything with my health, body and whatnot.
Well, I claim that it's a lot of gobbledygook.

gobbledygook? xD I had to laugh out loud when I read that.
And, NYC, your not familiar with pineapples?!? I see it here all the time, including pineapple juice, but I'm not a fan of the taste. When my family gets pizza, they sometimes put it on there or nachos and it totally ruins it for me.

Pineapples.*shudder* Those things are terrible. If I'm going to have juice, then I'll drink V8 VFusion. Peach/Mango flavor. Mango~.

Oh, ok. Lately I've been reduced to eating Skittles though. We're running short of gummies, and my dad won't let me touch his 'fruit snacks'. No dietary breakthrough for him then. XD

Pop's fruit snacks are dried fruit, not gummy stuff. And does Pop even eat fruit snacks?! If you count raisins, maybe, NYC. But fruit snacks includes dried fruit too, people. Why are they called fruit snacks otherwise? So yeah, don't just look at the matter from *this* side. Try *that* side or *the other* side, even *that* side *over there*. Pop's somewhat possessive over his snacks.
