jones soda co. green apple carbonated candy (USA)

Tonight, my wife and I were in line paying for our merchandise at Target (officially pronounced tar-zhay). As usual, I was scanning the impulse buy shelves, searching for my "treat" of the week. My eyes caught glimse of the shiny green, white & black tin from the Jones Soda Co. Carbonated Candy. For those of you who aren't familiar with Jones Soda Co., they are a carbonated beverage producer whose flavor choices tend to be "different" (see www.jonessoda.com for more info).

I had high expectations for this candy and I'm pleased to say that they were met! It's hard to explain what these lil buggers taste like. I think that the best way to describe them is by calling them "Smarties with a kick". They have a true-to-life green apple flavor that fizzes when bit. I melted one on my tongue and was surprised by the tingling sensation produced by these little green suckers. The back of the candy tin says that this carbonated delight is also available in Fufu Berry and Berry Lemonade flavors. In conclusion, if you see these lying by the cash register, grab one!
