What are Froot Loops Gummies?
Discontent with your child’s sole exposure to sugary fruit rings occurring only at breakfast, Kellogg’s is pleased to announce the birth of Froot Loops Gummies, small, chewy rings of a gelatinous nature meant to fill in the afternoon “sweet-snack” slot.
How are they?
Have you ever been chewing a big spoonful of Froot Loops cereal when you had the thought, “I know what would make these better— if they were chewier and grittier”?
No?
Well, there’s a reason for that. No one needs Froot Loops in a gummy form. Texturally, these come across like a stale version of your standard gummy peach ring. There’s less gum and more grit, though, giving you an experience akin to dropping your gummy snack in the sand before imbibing.
At first bite, there is the unmistakable artificial fruit taste associated with the namesake cereal, but it dissipates quickly, leaving you with the disappointing ordeal of chewing on a mouthful of rubbery newspaper.
Anything else you need to know?
In 1994, Kellogg’s introduced the world to Puey, Susey, and Louis, Toucan Sam’s nephews. It feels like maybe they should have told Uncle Sam to stay away from the fruit snack market.
Conclusion:
My seven-year-old daughter ate these with me, lest you think this is solely the opinion of a snobby adult. She declared, “I’d give these about a three. Out of 100.” I said, “Wow, you think they’re THAT bad?” And she said, “Well, maybe like a three out of five.”
The thing is, she’s seven, and numbers are still a bit conceptual to her in a lot of ways. She was right with the three, though. Just, you know, out of 10.

Excellent review! I literally laughed out loud while reading this one!! I now know to stay far away from these things.
Your daughter sounds absolutely adorable. I’d love her take on more reviews!
These would have been way better without the exterior sugar coating, and if they went with the more traditional gummy style.
You have no idea what you’re talking about and probably never know when you are actually eating good food. If you grew up eating fruit loops, these things taste just like the ceral and are amazingly delicious. Never experienced the overly chewy gummy you are describing. Maybe you should check the date on the bag when you eat something.
