Candy Mafia says they have "the freshest" product. Well, not this time! You could break a tooth on these.I was pleasedVery fresh and soft. Packaged well, candies were all in crisp, perfect squares. Very happy. Yellow is the BEST starburst.I love lemon Starburst best of all. Whenever I purchased a regular bag, lemon are picked out and put in a cup and tucked in my desk drawer . . I don't share lemon, well! So, when I saw these available, I had to try them out. Overall I love 'em, but they did range from fresh and soft to just a bit dry and chewy. Personally, I like them the later, but if you want 100% soft chewy candies, you may be a tiny bit disappointed. If you want your lemon starbursts, soft or chewy doesn't matter, this is it!The flavor didn't taste like the ones that you buy from the store in the variety pack. not sure how to explain it.My kid only likes the lemon ones....this is a lifesaver for those that like Starburst but don't like all the flavors!Ha! Yes they are all yellow and good for a gift. My daughter’s favorites are these all yellow so got them for her birthday.Perfect for my daughter's sunshine themed birthday party. They taste great!
