Gummy bears are small, chewy candies made primarily from sugar, gelatin, corn syrup, and fruit flavoring, often with added food coloring. Originating in Germany in the 1920s, they were first popularized by Hans Riegel Sr., founder of Haribo. These bite-sized treats are beloved globally and commonly found as a snack or dessert addition. While gummy bears are fat-free, they are high in sugar and low in nutritional value, making them a source of quick energy rather than a healthful choice. Some variants are fortified with vitamins or low-sugar options, catering to health-conscious consumers. However, traditional gummy bears contain artificial additives and are not suitable for vegetarian diets due to gelatin derived from animal collagen. Consumed in moderation, gummy bears can be an occasional indulgence, but excessive consumption may contribute to dental issues and imbalanced diets.
