They are disgusting. I believe that rat pellets would taste better! The
lady at my local GNC agreed that they are nasty...beware of product. May
be hazardous to your health and taste buds! Good luck anyway!!

I agree they are not that good!! I grabbed one of my little sisters the
other day figuring its gum it would be good. I was wrong it wasnt chewy
like gum and it had this weird taste and a odd after taste. I say save your
money!

My surgeon told me to stay away from gum of all kinds, due to the risk of
swallowing and clogging the stoma.

Some were passed out at our monthly support meeting. Thank Goodness I
didn't buy any! YUCK!!! I'm with the other posters....terrible tasting
while chewing and after taste afterwards. I prefer the chewables. Good
Luck!

Before surgery, I tried several different kinds of chewable vitamins to get
one I liked. I tried the gumballs, but they taste like vitamins smell
(yuck), and the gum is hard and unpleasant in the mouth. I also realized
the gumball didn't have iron, so I take the Rite-Aid store brand of
children's chewables with iron. They're portable, they don't taste bad,
and they're not chalky.

Regardless of taste, they do NOT have any iron in them. If you take these
or the gummi vites, you'll have to supplement with an acceptable iron
source. Believe me, I took the vitaballs for 1 1/2 weeks and had the worst
headaches until I figured out that it was the lack of iron causing them.
