Advantages: Delicious, Addicting, Very Fruity, Chewy, Long-Lasting, Not Expensive

Disadvantages: Calories + Carbs

Maynards Wine Gums are the nicest gums you can buy as they have delicious intense flavours and last a long time when you suck them, yet they are irresistible to bite into. You can buy them in small tubes or in larger packets. The tubes are 52g and cost just 39p. The wine gums are all round and are wrapped in a plastic packet, which is twisted at the end to seal it. The packet is very brightly coloured with the Maynards logo.

You can also buy the wine gums in larger packets, which are 215g and cost around £1.28. These contain wine gums of different shapes but the same flavours. Lastly, you can buy a packet of 4 52g tubes for just 90p, which is possibly the best deal you can get.

There are different flavours in each packet including strawberry, orange, lemon, lime and blackcurrant. The wine gums are very soft and chewy yet you can suck them for a long time and admire the strong fruity flavours. The flavours are quite authentic and they are really addicting. They are nice to suck but you end up biting into them and enjoying their chewy texture. Per 100g, there are 315 calories and 72.8g of carbohydrates - under half of which is sugars. These numbers are pretty high so a large packet shouldn't be had on a regular basis!

Ingredients
**********

Glucose Syrup, Sugar, Modified Maize Starch, Gelatine, Water, Malic and Acetic Acids, Flavourings, Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil, Glazing Agent (Carnauba Wax), Colours (E104, E122, E129, E142).

They are delicious sweets and I'd highly recommend them. You can buy them at supermarkets such as Tesco, Sainsburys, Asda and other small supermarkets and the price isn't too bad.
