Good gummies, with two issues.
I ordered these gummies based on their Raspberry Pomegranate flavor, 500 mg Apple Cider Vinegar dosage per gummy, and good brand name. They’re very similar in composition and shape to the other, more popular brand of ACV gummies.<br /><br />Like the other brand, these Solgar ACV gummies contain the ‘mother’. The mother is the cloudy stuff you see at the bottom of a bottle of ACV, and the most important ingredient. That’s what actually contains the helpful enzymes and good bacteria known as probiotics.<br /><br />I noticed right away that there was no protective outer seal around the top. Not a good start. When I popped off the top, there was a ‘seal’ on the top, but it was really just a piece of thin foam paper, and not actually glued to the top of the bottle like most actual seals on pills or vitamins.<br /><br />The smell is good… it’s definitely raspberry, and while you can smell a little vinegar, it’s not overwhelming. The taste is good as well. There’s very little vinegar taste, but they’re not something you’ll want to nosh on for a treat.<br /><br />But when I went to dump a couple into my hand, I noticed that they’re wet. For whatever reason, that really turned me off. I thought maybe I had received a bottle that was expired, but the date on the bottom says “EXP: 12/2022” so that’s not the problem.<br /><br />When compared to the leading brand, Solgar ACV gummies are (at this time) a little less expensive. The Solgar ACV gummies each have 2g of sugars and 2g of carbs, while the others have 1g of sugars, but 3.5g of carbs. Since carbs generally break down into sugars, I’d call that a wash.<br /><br />So the only negatives I have are the lack of real safety seals, and the moisture. Other than that, the taste and reported composition is good.<br /><br />Hope this helps.
