Talk:Gummy bear

In Restaurants

 * They are served at at least one other restaurant in S.F. but I don't know about the rest of the world.  Gummy bears are also featured at Coldstone's but I guess that isn't so surprising.   I guess if we had more gummy bear content aching to get on this page and we needed to make sense we could remove the reference, but I think its notable....sorta like the reference to Ferris Bueller's :).   The Simpson's episode probably deserves mention   Justforasecond 00:39, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

When eating a gummy bear, always eat the head first, and then the the body. That way the bear isn't screaming while you eat the rest of it. Either that or pop the whole thing in your mouth and eat it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dreadnaught Kat (talk • contribs) 03:23, 11 November 2011 (UTC)


 * in germany, it is usual to serve gummy bears after or with the meal... so it is common i think and the special note on that frisco restaurant can be deleted --129.13.72.153 19:48, 7 September 2006 (UTC) (user's name in german wiki: cinor)


 * that is wrong. It is not usual to serve gummy bears in restaurants in Gumany. --Simie (talk) 18:48, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

it's not wrong. It's not "usual" in a general way, but happens quite often, mostly in restaurants where it's to serve a free drink after the meal (Ouzo in greek restaurents, plum wine in chinese). Children and sometimes also grown ups who don't want to drink alcohol, get a small bag of gummibärs instead. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.216.116.150 (talk) 23:43, 24 April 2011 (UTC)

For an English class, I did a research paper on Gummi Candies, so I thought I would share it with you. (maybe not all of it is true...but lets use common sense. shall we?)

Here goes: The Romance of Gelatin and Sugar

If you have ever wondered, while staring into the clear eyes of your tasty and extraordinary confection, you are not alone. One day, as I sat pondering on the meaning of life and other weightier matters, this idea dawned upon me. Who, when, where, and how did such excellence as the gummi bear (or just gummi candy in general) arise? I asked myself. So now, throughout the course of this paper, you will learn all about their invention, how they came to the United States, their involvement in films and on television, variations on gummi candies since the gummi bear, and how they sell (and how to sell them) in the American market. And if you don’t especially care at all about gummis, maybe along the way you’ll learn to like ‘em. It all began in the German town of Bonn in the year 1922. Hans Riegel, the owner of a (then) small candy business, Haribo, came up with a most excellent idea (Bellis). For some time he had been noticing the popularity of teddy bears and dancing circus bears and so doing (Haribo), he had thought long and hard about making his own “Dancing Bear” or “Tanzbär” (Hunisch). So, he came up with a recipe to make his bears actually dance! And thus, the gummi bear, the first of all gummi candies, was born (Bellis). Since Hans invented them, he and his wife Gertrud were the only people in the world to make gummi bears at that time. To make sure that everyone (at least in Germany) could try and buy them, Hans would make a daily output of about 100 kilograms (approx. 250 lbs.) of gummi bears every day (that’s a lot!) and Gertrud would pedal around on her bike delivering and selling their tasty bears at fairs and kiosks. They were sold for only one pfennig (penny) for 2 bears (Hunisch). Within only one year, they were a huge hit throughout all of Germany! All this time, while these Germans were enjoying feasting upon those tasty, tasty Haribo gummi bears, all us people here in the United States of America were totally missing out! Gummi bears were invented in 1922, but the very first gummi bears to be made in America weren’t made until 1981 by what is now the Jelly Belly Candy Company. Not until 1982 were gummis readily available to everyone in the United States, though a lucky few did get them before that by visiting Germany themselves (NCA). Nowadays, though, gummi bears as well as hundreds of other shapes, colors, flavors of gummi candies are manufactured in the United States as well as in Europe and Germany. If you pay attention, you’ll be able to tell some differences between American made gummis and the European made types. American gummis tend to have a softer texture softer with stronger flavor and brighter colors as opposed to the European gummis having a “more firm, more consistent gummi which has a longer chew”(Young 52). A lot of people don’t notice the difference, but those of us with more refined tastes can choose which nationality of gummi candy we prefer. Although Germany and most of Europe has an extremely dominant brand (Haribo), the United States really doesn’t have an extremely dominant brand (Young 52). I personally favor the German brand, Haribo, the original makers of gummi bears. Within the last 30 or so years, gummi bears have also had their time in movies and on television. In the film, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, Polly Noonan, a student, says to her principal, Mr. Rooney, “Want a gummi bear? They’ve been in my pocket all day; they’re real warm and soft.”  Though that is kind of gross, it is pretty cool that those gummi bears were movie stars! Also, in the 2001 film Hedwig and the Angry Inch, American gummi bears were used to represent power (“Gummi Bear”). Gummi bears also happen to be one of the only, if not the only candy that has had a cartoon based on it (NCA). Disney’s Adventures of the Gummi Bears was first aired on September 14, 1985 and lasted four whole years (Turner). Even if you don’t love gummi bears, the very most popular kind of gummi candy, gummi worms, might just be the gummi confection for you! Trolli, another of those German candy companies, came up with and made the first gummi worm in the year 1981 (Bellis). At first, the idea of gummi worms was just a fun way to gross parents out that kids would like, but the parents started liking these scrumptious confections too, so now gummi worms are loved much by almost all (NCA). Brite Crawlers, the most favorite of all gummi worms, is about 2 inches long and is covered in sour sugar crystals (Bellis). Because of their popularity in America as well as in Germany, in 1986, they started up their own factory in Iowa (Hunisch). Now, there are hundreds of small, large and even medium sized gummi candy manufacturers. Large companies, the most widely known type, include Black Forest, Haribo, Trolli, Sour Patch Kids and Ferrera control a lot of the packaged gummi sales in America because of brand name and good packaging. When gummis first became popular, about 10 years ago, many people thought that gummi candies were just a passing trend that would loose popularity rather quickly. Obviously, those geniused people were totally wrong, since now, gummis have grown fast and consistently enough that now they have an entire category to themselves in the candy businesses (Young 49). All that brand stuff is only really important in the packaged candy area of gummis. For a big company to sell well and succeed, they need to sell in bulk as well as in the packaged part. A “very aggressive bulk program” says Babiarz of Candy Tech, is necessary for any business to have “phenomenal success” in gummi retailing. We all know that tons of people buy their gummis in bulk (‘cause it’s cheaper, admit it). When someone buys bulk, they don’t care about the brand name, they just care about price, a good flavor, the shape and if it’s colors are vibrant and catch their eye. One can usually buy bulk gummis as low as two or three dollars per pound as opposed to six or seven dollars per pound packaged. “Variety is the spice of gummis,” Jason Young of Professional Candy Buyer stated in his article about gummi economics (Young 50). Sour gummis, which get their zing from fumaric acid as well as other acids, are a popular variation on plain gummis (“Gummi Bear”). Also, milk and white chocolate covered gummi bears (Koppers), vitamin-enriched gummis (for parents to trick their kids with), interactive shapes so kids can play with their food (Young 54), vegan gummis (made with pectin in place of gelatin) help to make gummis exciting for a whole new audience of gummi consumers (Pavlina)! Molding gummis into any shape imaginable is one of their most endearing qualities and is part of what helps them continue to increase their sales yearly. Trolli recently came out with a new, innovative gummi trend. Called ‘double deposits,’ they are half normal clear gummi (usually on top), and on the bottom is a poofy, kind of foamy, opaque gummi that has a similar but different texture. Their gummi hot dogs, burgers and pizzas all use the foamy kind for the bun or crust. With their nifty individually wrapped gummi ‘meals,’ you can have a ‘balanced’ meal (Adams). Ask your mom for some of those as your lunch! Or, maybe you could eat Indiana Jones’s or Darth Vader’s gummi head which are imported from a Belgian manufacturer (Young 54). Now, for the final mystery! What makes gummi candies gummi? GELATIN!!! Gelatin is a kind of gross-when-you-think-about-it thing. Made from animals hoofs, bones and cartilage it’s an odorless, tasteless, colorless jelly (Colombia Encyclopedia). It’s the basis for gummi candies, but its other ingredients include sugar, corn syrup, corn starch, flavoring, coloring and citric acid ("Gummi Bear"). From personal experience, I have found that without an adequate recipe they are really hard to make, so Hans Riegel must’ve been such a genius to come up with such a good product! In factories, to mass produce gummis, all the ingredients are measured out and mixed up in big vats then cooked and put into a vacuum chamber to get rid of the extra moisture. The mixture is then separated into smaller vats where it is flavored and colored. When that’s done, the mix is squeezed into starch board molds and left to sit for 2-4 days. After that, it is packaged, delivered, sold and eaten by hungry people (Bellis). In closing, just in case you wanted to know, the most popular flavor of gummi candy is cherry, or the red kind (NCA). But, seriously, now you know more than you ever need to about gummi bears, gummi candies in general, and a German candy maker.

 * So someone posts a paper they wrote on a Wikipedia talk page, among whose sources is... that talk page's associated Wikipedia article. My head hurts. drseudo (t) 07:50, 3 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Gummy bear implants. You have got to be kidding me. Where do people come up with this stuff, eh?


 * I think what we're trying to say is thank you for sharing this, hopefully the sources can also be used to improve this article. Next time it might be better to post the actual paper elsewhere on the internet and link to it and just provide the sources as that's usually all we can use. Hope your effort scored well!

 * Update, I've formatted the above paper so the links are hyperlinked and I think spam is usually reserved for the article space with most of these, none seemed to be talk page spam. Benjiboi 03:40, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Error in regional distribution area
''Haribo Smurfs are a product of the German confection company Haribo. They are a gummi candy in the shape of blue Smurfs, which are of a raspberry flavour, with red and white caps, and are exclusive to the Benelux area. [1][2]'' The last part of this sentence is definately incorrect. I come from Germany and one can buy these smurfs everywhere troughout Germany. So, they are in no way "exclusive to the Benelux area". I love them! :-) -- 79.192.226.62 (talk) 23:22, 21 February 2008 (UTC) I agree, you can buy smurfs everywhere in germany. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.82.180.181 (talk) 20:16, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

Company slogan
I removed the Haribo company slogan. It has nothing to do with the bears as such, but is a company slogan. Thus it belongs to the Haribo article, where it's already mentioned. Averell (talk) 13:33, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Is there a usebox for "Gummi bear" available? I would like to place one on my userpage!--Kozuch (talk) 21:39, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

Smurfs?
Is there any reason to mention the Haribo smurfs? It seems unclear why they are prominently mentioned while other gummy-somethings are not. This stuff is made in gadzillion of forms, so having a smurf is not really spectacular. Averell (talk) 09:02, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I agree, it seems like someone's vested interest here. I've simplified it by moving the reference in with the other variations. If they want to highlight Gummi Smurfs, let them create a separate page. Ian Fieggen (talk) 02:02, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Laxative Effect`
I have recently noticed a warning against the consumption of excessive amounts of gummy bears due to their laxative effect. I'm wondering, how many would one need to eat for this to occur, and what actually causes this side effect? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.2.24.240 (talk) 22:32, 5 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Where did you hear about that? Well, idk... there seems to be nothing laxative in them - or was this for some type of "sugar-free" bears that contain artificial sweeteners? I've eaten quite a bit of those bears on several occasions, and never noticed any laxative effects. So if it really exists I suppose you'd have to eat really substantial amounts (like 1kg) for that... Averell (talk) 13:12, 6 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Swedish Fish contain mineral oil, which is a laxative. Perhaps you were confused, 76.2.24.240.  An elite (talk) 18:47, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

More Types of Gummi
ok so i have eaten and i have proof that there are more types of gummi i.e whales,butterflies,goofy teeth,frogs things like that, but the article disincludes them. Can someone help? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.171.70.92 (talk) 23:26, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I agree. I think it's insufficient for Gummi to redirect to this article.  Naturally, there is a great deal of redundant information, but the information common to all gummi should be on that article, and this article should either focus on traits specific to the bear variety, or merge into a gummi article. -Verdatum (talk) 20:34, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I have added a main article tag to the 'Variations and flavours' section, which links to Gummy candies. 03jkeeley (talk) 11:45, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

Move recommendation
Can we move this article to gummies? There are a lot of different types included in the article. Gummy bears are just one type. ChildofMidnight (talk) 10:40, 6 December 2008 (UTC) Resolved.

Flavors
Can someone check the flavors? Is red cherry or raspberry? The other ones seem like they may not be quite right also. ChildofMidnight (talk) 09:00, 28 January 2009 (UTC)


 * I have a package of Haribo goldbären right here (in Sweden, but I think Haribo sells the same flavours globally). There's an image on the back with all the flavours listed next to a little bear in their colour.


 * white/pale = pineappe
 * orange = orange
 * dark red = raspberry
 * light red = strawberry
 * green = apple
 * yellow = lemon
 * Should I edit this into the article? It seems a little irrelevant, but that might just be me. --Aryllia (talk) 14:14, 20 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Scratch that, I just read that part of the article a little closer and followed the ref, as well as checked the Swedish version of the site. I have no idea why the site and the package would be listing different flavours, but I can assure that the flavours I listed above were true for the content in the bag at least... (the green ones definitely taste more like sour apples then any strawberries I've ever eaten) --Aryllia (talk) 15:16, 20 August 2011 (UTC)

"Gummi" spelling
Why, in this article, are gummy bears referred to as "Gummi", and not the correct spelling, "gummy"? I don't believe "Gummi" is or was ever accurate. "Gummi Bear" sounds like a bastardization of the german name for the candy. It is not the correct name in the English language for the candy. The spelling "Gummi" is almost never used in popular lexicon. Even a quick google search shows nearly three times as many uses of the phrase "gummy bear" than the alternative spelling. Gummy is an adjective, it describes the bear. As with all other gummy candies. The incorrect spelling should be removed and replaced with the correct word. 99.163.22.236 (talk) 14:33, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Do your homework. Just because google has more hits doesn't make it correct.  If you would read the article (or even a book, gasp) you'd know that gummi bears were originally made in Germany and called gummi bears, so the correct spelling is gummi.  The bastardization is gummy, which originated in some knock off brand.  This page used to be at "gummy bear" but has been moved back and forth.  See the history.  The fact is Haribo created them, so we'll use their spelling.  D a R kA g E 7 [Talk] 21:25, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Easy tiger. The word gummy has some overlap with the texture and qualities of gummies. What is the etymology of the German word Gummi? There is no such word in English according to the online dictionary. So it's not quite so simple. I believe it is commonly spelled both ways. That such a tasty and nutritious snack has multiple spelling should surprise no-one. ChildofMidnight (talk) 22:16, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

As an American "Army Brat" living in Germany from 1965-1968 and still hooked on this candy, I know that we Americans living there called the candy by its German pronunciation, goo' me, and spelled it Gummi, which I believe means "rubber." I still pronounce and spell it that way. As a soldier in the 1970s, I brought 2 kg bags back to my wife and she also calls it "Gummi." It was only when the candy was widely available in the US in the early 1980s that the Americanized spelling "Gummy" appeared with the corresponding American pronunciation. Gummy in American English can mean chewy or sticky, but only rarely "rubber." Which is correct? Both.


 * I just want to point something out. Obviously Haribo invented Gummis, and any form of the candy made by Haribo should be called gummi. However, Haribo no longer exclusively makes the bears. Lots of other companies now do. So while the specific Haribo bears are called gummi bears, its very posisble the more generalized form of the candy is more frequently called gummy bears in the US. If that's the case, then I think the article title should be changed. It all depends. Is this article just specifically about Haribo gummi bears (i.e. a specific brand of candy like Skittles), or how the candy exists currently, dealing with all of its manufacturers and forms (i.e. a specific type of candy like a lollipop). Depending on which is the case, we should also look into merging or incorporating the gummi worms, and gummy candy articles then. 24.190.34.219 (talk) 17:35, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

One penny gummies
I've removed the section, it had been fact-tagged forever. Non one has ever added anything that shows that this is true and/or particularly relates to Gummi bears. Also, according to Finnish_mark, there was no such thing as a "one penny coin" in Finland since 1948... Averell (talk) 17:39, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Bogus Information
Gummy bears are actually made of cows hooves. Correction: Gelatin is derived mainly from pork skins, pork and cattle bones, or split cattle hides; contrary to popular belief, horns and hooves are not used. SEE: link Gelatin


 * And so? The article correctly states that they are made with Gelatin and that that is made from animals. If you want to learn more, you can follow the link to the Gelatin article. Averell (talk) 10:31, 17 January 2010 (UTC)

Gummy bears were around long before 1989. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.230.120.248 (talk) 21:51, 16 January 2010 (UTC)


 * You have a [NP:V reliable source] for that? If yes, you may add it. Otherwise, I'll remain doubtfoul. By the way: Please create new discussion topics on the bottom of the page. Averell (talk) 10:30, 17 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Haribo was founded in 1920 by Hans Riegel when he registered the name in the Bonn Commercial Registry. Probably an early precursor to the gummi bear was the dancing bear, which was a "little bear made from fruit gum". This was made in 1922. I'll probably update the article soon when I have the time, but if you want to, be my guest. The source I cited is probably the best to go by. I think the Haribo article might also need to reflect some of the facts here. D-hax (talk) 20:27, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

Merge Gummi worms into this article
Someone created a Gummi worms article. It looks like in the past, variations of Gummi worms were redirected to Gummi bear. Should they be two separate articles or be merged? PDCook (talk) 17:33, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
 * It has also been suggested that Gummi worms be merged into Gummy candies. PDCook (talk) 01:09, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

Empty calories?
The main ingredients are gelantine, sugar and starch. The latter two are processed carbohydrates, wich are usually called "empty calories", but gelantine is a protein. While the the human body cannot burn gelantine for energy, it needs it to build up joints and skin. Gelatine prescriptions are given to persons with problems with their joints. So "empty calories" is probably used wrong here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.216.116.150 (talk) 00:20, 25 April 2011 (UTC)

Gummi bear → Gummy bear – Folks, I love and respect the original Haribo product, but we need to WP:USEENGLISH here.

 * Support, "Gummy bear" is the term to refer to the confectionery in general, while "Gummi bear" is the name of the original product. However, the article talks about the former, so "Gummy bear" is the term to use. Hill Crest&#39;s WikiLaser (Boom.) (talk) 03:26, 27 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Support. Gummy bear is the generic name and the most commonly used name. This article is not about the original product.--SGCM (talk)  05:46, 27 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Really - I see no point in renaming this article, both spellings are used. Comparison to BMW - Bayerische Motoren Werke? One is the abbreviation for the other - not a variation in spelling between "brand" and "generic" - better comparison would be "Kleenex" & "Facial Tissue". --Education does not equal common sense. 我不在乎  19:03, 29 July 2012 (UTC)
