I get these for my diabetic husband. He loves that he can still have candy from time to time and not have his blood sugar go up. These have a lot of flavor.
I ordered a tube of each flavor to try. Out of the three, I liked the citrus flavor the best (yellow tube). It was both sweet and tangy and had no funny aftertaste. The fruit flavor (green tube) was also good though I prefer the citrus - I like tangy better than sweet. I didn't like the berry flavor (red tube). It had a funny, perfume-y taste that I just didn't care for. I ended up tossing that one.
I thought the beads were cute - sort of like a tic tac only a little smaller. But the serving size is one piece - who only eats one piece? BTW, no carbs after deducting the xylitol, so low carbers, enjoy!
The tubes the candy came in were great - the tops stay closed tight so when you toss them into your purse or pocket, you don't have to worry about finding all the little beads loose on the bottom.
Recommend the citrus and fruit flavors. Wouldn't it be great if Sparx came out with sour flavors too?
I like this gum for my granddaughter because it is not just not bad for her teeth, but is good for them because it has xylitol in it. It doesn't get much better than that. I buy xylitol gum for her locally but it is much, much more expensive, so I am glad to be able to buy it in quantity on Netrition

Great tasting, strong peppermint flavor... does not "wear out"... hard to believe it's sugar-free... much better than the cinnamon which loses it's flavor more quickly... Being on a low-carb diet, it's important to have a gum or breath mint you can depend on... I buy it 100 pieces at a time...

Oh my goodness, these candies are the best. The lemon is tart and sweet and wonderfully refreshing, the berry is really berry and nicely sweet and is my favorite. The mint is excellent for freshening your breath and works wonderfully and taste really good too.
I haven't had sugar in over a year and a half, due to Candida overgrowth. So these are a real treat and it's so nice to know they are good for you too with the Xylitol in them. Most people don't know that Xylitol is anti-fungal and kills fungus {yeast, mold and mildew} in your body, so that's a real plus!
I have purchased the Spry lemon mints and am very impressed. They work well for cough drops as they are a germ killer plus moisten the mouth. They are great for freshening the breath. Also, they taste great as a little treat.
I have used saline and xylitol in warm water as a sinus rinse, and that works very well. So, when I saw xylitol in candy form, I was very pleased. I will order enough of these to have on hand always.
