I'm not particularly fruity - well, not when it comes to confectionary anyway. Chocolate is my weakness and nearly always my first choice when I need to satisfy a sweet craving. Feeling sorry for myself this morning, I wandered to the local Co-op and picked up my usual 'I need cheering up' Bueno. But as I headed over to the checkout something else caught my eye. Instantly attractive packaging with a slightly tropical look jumped out at me. Bright, vivid colours complimenting a fun and eye-catching design...Starburst Choozers. Easily distinguished from the regular Starburst due to the mainly reddish-pink colouring (in comparison to yellow of the original ...  Read the complete review

I am just about old enough to remember the days of opal fruits, a very nice chewy sweet that needed no change. To start with all they done was change the name to starburst which was ok, pointless but ok but then they started to tamper with the sweets themselves. They removed some of the sugar whilst at the same time supposedly improving the flavour they then removed old favourite flavours and replaced them with others now finally they bring us the new idea.. Choozers, the chews that ooze! In my opinion these sweets are horrible and I have yet to meet someone who likes them although I am sure I will get plenty comments on here from people who do. ...  Read the complete review

Apart from the very young amongst us, we will all I am sure remember Opel fruits, a very nice and flavoursome chewy sweet that had the jingle "opel fruits made to make your mouth water", they were around a long time and needed no introduction to people yet for some reason the manufacturer decided to rename them, using the name Starburst. In the renaming I am certain that the lime one at least changed and lost some of its twang, I know companies try to refresh things from time to time and give products new names and introduce spin off of the product but for me this was a bad move and the spin off they have introduced is an absolutely horrid one that ...  Read the complete review

Starburst was originally called opal fruits and that's what I still see them as, But saying that these new flavoured starburst choozers are certainly a new idea. A sweet with a liquid centre made from fruit juice. Opal fruits but now Starburst are a product from Mars. They come in a tube of about 10 individually wrapped sweets, each wrapped in a waxy type paper. They are oval shaped unlike normal starbust being square. The tube wrapper is a bright pink/red colour with starburst written along it and pictures of the 3 different sweets inside. The flavours are Apple & Orange, Raspberry & Orange and Mango & orange. The sweets are orange green or ...  Read the complete review

Who'd have thought it eh? A chew with a contrasting runny centre! What a step forward in confectionary tomfoolery! Choozers by Starburst offer this strange concoction in a handy grab bag or roll. The bagged varieties were on offer in Tesco recently for £1.37 a bag or two for £2.00 so in the interests of consumer research into my trolley they went. My bag is bright red and is easily spotted on the shelves, the front of the bag is boldly emblazoned with the brand name and is garishly coloured with stripes of lime green and neon yellow. A green Choozer is illustrated on the pack, split in half with its gooey yellow contents spilling from within and you are ...  Read the complete review
