Monday Munchies🍬
Okay, I'll admit it — when I see "plant-based candy" on a bag, I automatically lower my expectations. I've tried a few of Joyride's other products before, and they didn't exactly win me over.
But these Uncommon Candy Sour Blue Raspberry Strips completely surprised me. I picked up a 3.5 oz bag at my local Kroger for $4.99, and honestly, I'd repurchase them in a heartbeat.
They smell just like Airhead Extremes — bright, sweet, and nostalgic — but the taste? So much cleaner. The flavor is tart in all the right ways, without the artificial aftertaste that often accompanies sour candy.
They're also free from synthetic colors, non-GMO, and have 4 grams of sugar per serving (sweetened with monk fruit extract- my favorite!). The texture is what really sold me: soft, chewy, and super fresh. I couldn't stop eating them.
My husband's sweet tooth is legendary, so when he said these were one of the best candies he's ever had, I took notice. His verdict? "They're like glorified Fruit by the Foot." And he's not wrong.
They've got that same chewy nostalgia, just… upgraded — cleaner, fresher, and guilt-free enough to call it a responsible choice.
Final verdict: These are a total win. Sweet, tangy, and feel-good in every way.
IMBHO? HELL YES!
