YummyEarth Organic Lollipops, Assorted Flavors, 5-Pound Bag Review.
"TASTE AWESOME!!!" 2009-04-23
By Melissa P. (Chicago, IL USA)
I LOVE these lollipops, and have never tried a flavor I didn't like. I definitely appreciate the lack of high fructose corn syrup and artificial colors when I'm looking for an occasional treat to satisfy my sweet tooth!
There is a nice mix of flavors, but for those who are picky, they are not evenly distributed. Of the 330 lollipops I received in my 5-lb. bag,
64 (19%) Tart Sour Apple
58 (18%) Googly Grape
39 (12%) Mango Tango
32 (10%) Strawberry Smash
28 (8%) Ginger Zest
25 (8%) Wet-face Watermelon
24 (7%) Pomegranate Pucker
22 (7%) Cheeky Lemon
17 (5%) Orange Squeeze
11 (3%) Blood Orange Cocktail
8 (2%) Very Very Cherry
2 (<1%) Tooberry Blueberry
"flavor ratios - NEW and EXCLUSIVE for Amazon (but not for "fulfilled by Amazon")" 2009-10-22

UPDATED 09-02-10 - We hear you loud and clear, amazon lolly lovers!!! We have changed to an almost even assortment of flavors per 5lb bulk bag and Counter Bin EXCLUSIVELY FOR AMAZON so make sure you are buying from Amazon directly (it will say "Ships from and sold by Amazon" under IN STOCK). Sorry, the assortment is still random when buying this item via a 3rd party, such as DAB Nutrition "fulfilled by Amazon". Please note that the assortment is ALMOST even as compared to a completely random flavor assortment. Your feedback drives this company from ingredient requests and allergy needs to flavor requests to flavor ratios. We appreciate your feedback and hope that you know that we are listening. I am truly sorry for posting this note here with a 5 star review since I do not want anyone to think that we are trying to mislead anyone with a "fake" product review, but I could not really figure out any other way to communicate this to our Amazon friends. Thank you again for your wonderful reviews!
"Great Allergy-Free & Tasty" 2006-10-18

Dealing with an allery to corn isn't easy, but these lollipops sure make it seem a lot easier. They're wonderfully flavored, organic, and made by a company who honestly cares about its customers. These are a great find and a staple of my house. They're just awesome, its hard to believe they're corn-free.
"Best Lollipops EVER" 2006-10-22
By I. Moss (Portland, OR)
I am a BIG fan of lollipops, and I have to report that these are, hands-down, the best I've ever tasted. The flavors are original and tasty, and the shape of the pop is just right. And, I don't have to worry about ingesting the great unknown yellow #5 or red #2. Go Yummy Earth! I can't wait to see what these guys come out with next!
"GREAT LOLLIES + FAIRLY VIRTUOUS" 2006-11-24

Can't go wrong here. Intense flavor and impressive ingredients. I love 'em and everyone I give them to loves them. Get a load of these ingredients: organic evaporated cane juice, organic tapioca syrup (no sulfites added), non-GMO citric acid (from non-GMO sugar beet), organic & natural flavors* (watermelon, pomegranate, orange oils, lemon oils, raspberry), organic & natural colors (red cabbage, purple carrots). * = Cheeky Lemon, Wet-Face Watermelon, Pomegranate Pucker, Orange Squeeze, & upcoming Mango Tango flavor contain some amount of orange or lemon or citrus oils (0.58% of the natural flavor formula of watermelon is derived from lemon oil). Safflower oil is in the Wet-Face Watermelon and upcoming Mango Tango. HOLY COW!!! AND THEY'RE REALLY REALLY GOOD!
