   If there were a cola flavor, it would be RC, not a nationwide favorite.  If they sold the 7up one by itself, I might go for this.  I love Dr Pepper, but I’ve never liked candies or gums that were Dr Pepper flavor.  I don’t like orange soda, except Stewart’s Orange N Cream, which has vanilla, too.  Most root beer candies other than Reed’s are a disappointment, I would go on hunger strike, but I know that would be futile about bringing Reed’s back.

   rootbeer jelly bellys are actually quite good (i have some in front of me now actually). Although, to be honest, nothing will ever compare to reeds.  I like the sound of the gooey middle.  I would only want the rootbeer one though.  the others are not so appealing.

   I was excited when I first saw these, but knowing that they don’t have a carbonation taste makes me sad.  I once had a Japanese candy that someone called Coca-Cola candy.  It tasted exactly like a Coke and was wonderful with the carbonation flavor/texture.  Have you ever heard of this?  I have been searching everywhere for this, but have only found them in Japan portion of the World Showcase at Disney World a few years ago.

   Oh those are so cute! I’m also not crazy about Dr. Pepper flavored things but I’m sure the kids wouldn’t mind them.

   I was right along with you until you mentioned the gooey centre which reminds me of those cough drops..that and the fact I wouldn’t eat half these flavours.

   my fav. is the dr. pepper.
   the 7up tastes like a lemon candy to me.
   the crush orange soda tastes like an orange candy not pop at all.
   the rootbeer has a little too much bite in it but i like it.

    oh wait.
    i also think they would taste better without a chewy center.

    I love these candies, but I can’t seem to find them anywhere apart from Walgreens. I rarely ever go there so I purchased 5 bags of them since I knew some family members would want to mooch some too.
    So if anyones having trouble finding these I would strongly suggest checking out Walgreens for a bag!

    I personally enjoy every flavor of them. The Root Beer and Dr Pepper are the best though. It makes me sad a little bit because it does seem like every bag I get is loaded with Orange Crush ones and not enough Root Beer! Great candy though all in all.

    I just bought these the other night at the supermarket and I have to say that despite my initial excitement, I was rather disappointed in the overall taste and experience of eating these candies.

    I found these at the 99Cents Store. Love them, esp. the Dr. Pepper flavor. The orange and root beer have a kind of odd aftertaste, but I’d have them again.

    A friend gave me some of this soda pop candy and I loved it but can’t fine it in any store. Can you give me a local store in the Douglasville, GA were I can purchase some please. Thank you Nadine again i loved the candy this is it for drink lovers like me.

    they stop making this candy, ONLY GODS knows why? At least my Supermarket told me this, cant find on Brach’s web-page. What a shame, I still have co-workers asking me about this candy. Most likely its was not making billions of dollars as fast as Brach wanted it to. How could it snuff out so soon?

    I love Soda Poppers!!!!!! I am trying to stop smoking and this candy is a very big help. I am almost out of them and nothing else will do. Please, if anyone knows where to get Soda Poppers let me know. They taste just like the soda.
