I’m sure you’re all celebrating Gummi Worm Day today, right?  What, you’re not?!  Just kidding; I’m guessing most of you have never even heard of Gummi Worm Day.  But it reminds me of one of my favorite candies.  I know, I know; candy is junk food – and (apart from chocolate which, I confess, I eat regularly) I don’t eat it often.  But when I do, I have a couple healthy-as-candy-goes favorites, and one of them is perfect for Gummi Worm Day.

These Surf Sweets Sour Worms are just the right amount of tart with sweet.  And they’re made with natural flavors and without corn syrup.  They’re still candy, of course, but without some of the obviously icky chemicals in most mainstream candy.

(And in case you were curious, my other favorite is these dark chocolate covered “orange slices” from Sunkist.  On a good day, I can even find them at the dollar store.)
