Trader Joe's is making it easier than ever to get your daily dose of fruits and veggies – sort of – with its new Peas & Carrots Sour Gummy Candies.
The new Peas & Carrots Sour Gummy Candies are produced for Trader Joe's by a trusted French confectionary. This supplier creates adorable pea and carrot-shaped gummy candies that will remind you of the real thing. But instead of using gelatin or artificial colors, these sour gummies get their flavor from fruit pectin and their color from natural sources like spirulina, paprika, and fruit and veggie juice. However, you'll be pleased to know that these gummies don't actually taste like vegetables – they only look like them.
