Orange vs. Cherry: Which Vitamin C Gummy Reigns Supreme?
Hey fellow gummy lovers! I've been on the Vitamin C gummies for a while now, and I'm totally addicted to the orange flavor - it's like a little burst of sunshine. But man, the cherry ones taste like medicine to me. I can't be the only one. Next time I stock up, should I just go all orange or is there another flavor I'm missing? Need your thoughts before I drop cash!
PurePete921, I feel you on the cherry! It's way too sweet and fake. But have you tried the mixed berry? It's my go-to. It's a nice balance, not as intense as orange but not medicinal like cherry. I'd say give that a shot. Also, I've heard the mango ones are bomb but haven't tried yet. Anyone else?
For me, it's all about the pectin base - gotta avoid gelatin, ya know? I'm vegan. That said, I actually like the cherry! But I think the orange is too acidic for my stomach after a workout. My advice: get a variety pack if they offer it. That way you can taste without committing. But if you're set on one flavor, orange is probably the safest bet for most people.
ZenZoe598 - mixed berry, huh? I'll have to check that out. I saw a mango flavor from a brand but it had sugar alcohol and that messes with my gut. VeggieVictor306 - good point on the variety pack! I didn't see one at the store but maybe online. Guess I'll go orange for now, thanks guys!
No prob! And yeah, watch out for the sugar alcohols - they can cause bloating. Stick with the clean brands. Happy gummy hunting!
