Angry Birds Fruit Gummies — BULLSHIT

Munch or Dump rates Angry Birds Fruit Gummies by Angry Birds BULLSHIT — score 0/90.

Sold as 'made with real fruit juice' by a brand literally called 'Healthy Food Brands' — but it's sugar, corn syrup, and five artificial dyes. There is no real fruit here, just candy in a kid-friendly costume.

Why this verdict

• Brand 'Healthy Food Brands' and 'real fruit juice' claim mask a sugar-and-dye candy
• Sugar and corn syrup are the #1 and #2 ingredients — 15g added sugar per serving
• Only 'fruit' is white grape juice concentrate, which is just stripped-down sugar
• Five artificial dyes including Red 3 and Red 40, marketed straight at kids
• No actual nutrition: no fiber, no vitamins, no real fruit

Ingredients (12)

• Sugar (moderate) — Added for sweetness, can contribute to calorie content.
• Corn Syrup (caution) — Added sugar baked into the crust.
• white grape juice concentrate (moderate) — The 'real fruit' the package brags about. With fiber removed it's basically just more sugar, not meaningful nutrition.
• gelatin (moderate) — Animal-derived binder for the frosting; makes the product non-vegetarian.
• citric acid (safe) — Acidity and tartness adjuster.
• Natural and Artificial Flavor (moderate) — Added flavor system, including artificial flavor.
• FD&C Red 40 (concerning) — Petroleum-derived artificial dye added only for the pink color; linked to hyperactivity concerns and offers zero nutrition.
• yellow 5 (avoid) — Artificial dye linked to sensitivity in some people; unnecessary here.
• yellow 6 (avoid) — Synthetic azo dye used purely for color.
• blue 1 (avoid) — Artificial dye used to tune color; no nutritional role.
• red 3 (avoid) — FDA revoked its food authorization in January 2025 over animal cancer findings; makers have until 2027 to remove it — it's still in this box.
• carnauba wax (safe) — Plant wax used to keep the bears from sticking.
