Review of 'Palmer's Candies' Selects 'Orange Slices'

Palmer's Candies -- Selects 'Orange Slices' (vegan)
Overall Rating: 2/5
Summary: wow, there's a burst of orange flavour, including that slight bitterness of the rind. The sugar crystals really add to the texture--great! It is medium-sweet and pretty dang good. But, it leaves a burning/numb kinda feeling in the mouth afterwards...kinda odd. There's no information on the official website about ingredients and GMO status, so it's pretty safe to say that this product contains GMOs. If that weren't bad enough, it also has trans fats (modified cornstarch), and artificial ingredients. I do not recommend this product.

Where to buy: US

Okay, take a look at these ingredients and hide your kids. There's just nothing to offer. Not only are the ingredients devoid of health benefits, they are actually harmful to your health. Pass on these. If you need to get your kids some similar candies that are better for their health, try Florida's Naturals.
