The description
A gluten free pack of fruit juice gummies, this particular one is grape flavor, made with refreshing grape juice and fortified with collagen for that elastic texture.
The good
Meiji's grape flavored "kaju (fruit juice) gummies" are a safe bet when picking up a quick treat for the kids. They like the taste of these gummies, as do I. I also like that they have collagen in them, as I have recently realized the health benefits of collagen! There are 2700 milligrams of collagen contained in this product according to the package. I have no idea what the recommended daily allowance is, but 2700 milligrams certainly sounds like it is more than enough collagen for at least one day! I like that this product is widely available in Japan; in supermarkets, drug stores and occasionally in vending machines.
The not so good
There is a big price difference between stores, as well as between walk in stores and online stores. If there is a standard price, I can't find it, and I notice that the price seems to be different every time I buy it. The 135 yen I paid on Amazon is on the expensive side I think. I see Rakuten are currently selling this packet for 99 yen and I remember the last time I bought them in Welcia they were about 110 yen. They are potentially a choking hazard, so do be careful if you are giving them to small children.
