Sour Patch Kids Glow Ups

Who asked for this? "The first ever candy to glow under a blacklight"?? I mean, I'm not against it -- I like the stupid cooling Icee cereal, so I also like this. It's just a funny product. I wonder if it will encourage anyone who doesn't already have one to buy a blacklight. If they do, they might discover some hidden infestations they wish had remained hidden (or sex stuff, but in my experience I'm mostly just discovering hidden infestations, even in hotel rooms, which is the original reason to purchase a blacklight before Big Gummy got in on the game). 

These are supposed to be strawberry & watermelon, but I think (??) they're all the same color & flavor, so I guess it's a mix in a single Kid? The predominant flavor I get is watermelon, which is a fine flavor, although not as delicious as those seasonal black raspberry ones. Easy to binge, alas. But good for nausea! Even if not good for other organs and systems....

Overall
Cost: 5/10
Taste: 7/10
Stupid Novelty: 6/10 (if you don't have a blacklight these are literally just regular candy)
