So I came home from work yesterday and found my 5-year-old sitting on the couch with an empty jar of my collagen gummies. He said they were 'yummy candy'. I panicked but apparently he's fine, just a little hyper. Has this happened to anyone else? I'm thinking of hiding them now...

OMG yes! My husband did the same thing. He ate half a jar thinking they were fruit snacks. I was mad but also kinda flattered he liked them lol. Now I keep them in my locked desk drawer. Glad your little one is okay!

Haha, that's hilarious but scary. Pro tip: look for gummies with a warning label or keep them in a high cabinet. Also, maybe switch to sugar-free? Kids might not like the taste as much. I use collagen powder instead—no candy temptation.

I feel you! My son refuses to touch my collagen gummies—he says the texture is 'weird'. So at least I don't have to worry about him stealing them, but now I have a picky eater who won't take supplements. Anyone else deal with texture issues?
