00:00What's Crackalackin' Gaming Nation?
00:29You know this B, JohnTheGamerC4, here with episode 65 of JohnTheGamerC4's Munchies Review.
00:38So today we'll be reviewing the newly released Sour Patch Kids Glow Ups.
00:44Now I have not heard anything about this snack, so it's definitely new to me.
00:50Not sure how long it's been out, but I like to think it's new because I haven't seen it at 7-Eleven before.
00:54Well, yeah. So these are called Sour Patch Kids Glow Ups.
01:03And apparently these react to blacklight.
01:08So it says, with edible confetti that glows under blacklight.
01:11So the flavor is Strawberry Watermelon.
01:14So I'm guessing it's a fusion of Strawberry Watermelon.
01:18I've tried the Watermelon Sour Patch Kids, and it's actually pretty good.
01:22I don't think I tried a Strawberry one, though.
01:25But we'll see if it's like a fusion thing, or if it's like separate flavors or whatnot.
01:29Well, what really drew me to this was definitely the whole blacklight activated feature.
01:41Well, yeah.
01:42It says Liquid Glow, but you'll see once I put it to the blacklight.
01:47But yeah, it's crazy.
01:49There's like little confetti that glows under the blacklight.
01:52Alright, I'll check the back here.
01:56I'm going to get some more info.
02:00So it says, our edible confetti contains turmeric extract, which gives it its fun glow.
02:07Hint, you can't taste it.
02:11Huh, interesting.
02:12See, that was my question, too.
02:15I was like, okay, if it has like turmeric extract in it, is it going to have like a hint of like turmeric flavor to it?
02:23So.
02:25Yeah, that should be interesting.
02:29Alright.
02:33So, go ahead and open them.
02:36So I'll give you a look, like before we put it under the blacklight.
02:40Like, just under normal light, I'll show you what it looks like.
02:43So, give me one sec.
02:47So, as you can see here, the confetti is very visible.
02:51So it's kind of cool.
02:52It's like different colored flakes here.
02:55So we got yellow, red, whatnot.
02:58Of course, with this sugary exterior.
03:03Alright, so we're going to go ahead and see what it looks like under the blacklight before we actually do the taste tests.
03:09And, go from there.
03:13Alright.
03:14And, this is what it looks like under the blacklight here.
03:18That's pretty cool.
03:18We got a little neon green color.
03:22So, yeah, from a distance, you can see that nice little glow.
03:27Yeah, that is pretty neat.
03:28So, yeah.
03:30That's turmeric extract.
03:32So, I mean, from the hint it said on the bag, it's like, oh, you can't taste it.
03:37But, I guess when we taste it, we'll actually find out if there is any turmeric, like, flavor to it.
03:46Even though there's maybe a little hint of it.
03:48But, yeah.
03:49But, yeah, I like the effect.
03:53Very cool.
03:57Okay, and there's, like, a bunch of them in a row here.
04:00So, apparently, they're all the same color.
04:02So, they're all pink.
04:03So, I'm guessing it's just going to be a strawberry watermelon fusion when we do try it.
04:08But, yeah.
04:09That is frigatee, man.
04:11But, it's kind of cool how Sour Patch Kids actually has a snack that advertises it.
04:15Like, oh, yeah, it actually does glow under the blacklight.
04:19So, that is freaking neat, man.
04:23It's like, now with glowing red and green color.
04:28Alrighty, folks.
04:29So, we're going to go ahead and conduct the taste test.
04:32And, go from there.
04:35Alrighty, folks.
04:36We're going to conduct the taste test now.
04:40So, we'll see if you can actually taste the turmeric at all.
04:43But, on the back of the bag, it claims, like, oh, hints, you can't taste it.
04:47So, I guess we'll find out.
05:09That's a good fusion gummy right there.
05:11It has the tartness of the, um, like, strawberry with the full flavor of the watermelon.
05:22It's a decent ratio.
05:24I mean, for the most part.
05:25I mean, you can really taste more of the watermelon than the strawberry.
05:29But, the strawberry flavor is there with the tartness.
05:31Because, you know, some strawberries are tart.
05:33So, no, not a bad fusion.
05:37Like, it tastes great.
05:39And, I love the whole blacklight gimmick.
05:42Like, it's just so freaking cool.
05:45Like, not a lot of snacks actually, uh, advertise that their products actually are blacklight reacting.
05:53Well, it's funny.
05:55That's just, like, even, like, you know, clothing, posters, whatever.
05:59Or, just certain items that, like, they're blacklight reacting, but they don't say it is.
06:05But, I like how Sour Patch Kids took it to another level.
06:09Like, oh, yeah.
06:10We're even going to call these glow-ups.
06:12And, they're actually blacklight reacting.
06:16So, yeah.
06:16They taste great.
06:17And, I love the gimmick.
06:19So, definitely going to give these a thumbs up.
06:22Because, I've always been a sucker for anything blacklight.
06:25Like, react.
06:27Tongue-tied.
06:28So, yeah.
06:30I love anything that's, like, blacklight reacting.
06:32So, yeah.
06:37Yeah, definitely good.
06:41Oh.
06:42Before I end this video, I did want to show you my Sour Patch Kids Funko Pop.
06:47Because, that one was actually blacklight reacting, too.
06:50Which is kind of ironic.
06:51Because, they made the gummies, too.
06:53So, give me one shot.
06:55So, yeah.
06:56That's, uh, Sour Patch Kids Funko Pop I bought from 7-Eleven.
07:00This was only an exclusive 7-Eleven.
07:04And, apparently, it glows.
07:06Glows in the dark.
07:07Well, at least the, uh, sugary exterior there.
07:11But, yeah.
07:11That's freaking neat.
07:14So, yeah.
07:15This is the red one.
07:16Red Berry Sour Patch Kid.
07:19I think they were smaller than collection, but.
07:23Yeah.
07:23I don't think they had all of them.
07:24I think that they had, maybe, the blue and the orange.
07:26But, not the yellow.
07:29But, yeah.
07:33Alrighty, folks.
07:34Now that concludes this episode of.
07:37Munchie's review of Sour Patch Kids Glow Ups.
