Weird question coming up! I have a real sweet tooth and have found that Gobstoppers are great as they last for ages as far as everyone knows these shouldn't cause any attacks or problems should they? Please let me know before I get excited about being able to have sweets and eating loads!
Thanks

What are the ingredients? Do they contain HFCS? If so, I would avoid them. I used to suck on these all the time when I was a kid! Willy Wonka, right?

Generally candies like this are totally safe.
The only thing you have to watch for is artificial sweeteners and HFCS in the ingredients, which would spell trouble. I'm not sure if stuff like this comes packaged with the ingredients on them though, and I can't seem to find them anywhere on the Internet.... Must be a Wonka secret I guess
