Starburst Chew PopsName: Starburst Chew Pops (Green Apple, Orange & Strawberry)
Brand: Starburst (Mars) Place Purchased: Von’s Grocery Price: 10 cents each Size: .49 oz Calories 100 Type: Lolly/Taffy
 I’ve got to hand it to Starburst. They’ve always packed their candies with flavor. When Starburst first came on the market, I loved them. They were much more flavorful than other taffy treats available at the time. Easier on the teeth, too. Starburst now offers lollypops. In the tradition of Charm’s Blow Pops and Tootsie Pops, there are fruit flavored hard candy with a same-flavored Starburst fruit chew center. I picked these up at the grocery store at the check out counter (thanks Russ!) for ten cents a pop. The orange is by far my favorite. It’s really orangy, and the flavor goes all the way through with the continuation in the chew. Dirt cheap, I know I’d buy these again. In fact, they’re perfect for Halloween (I like to give away a mix of chocolate and non-chocolate/nut treats for the kids). I wasn’t as keen on the green apple flavor as it had a very unpleasant chemical taste to it. But then again, green apple usually does. The strawberry is good too, but also a little bit on the artificial side. They’re rather tart, which is something I enjoy in a fruit hard candy. I hope they come out with more flavors. I bet I’d love lemon. Rating: 9 out of 10. POSTED BY Cybele AT 2:06 pm 9-Yummy • Mars • Chews • Hard Candy & Lollipops • Starburst • United States • Review • Candy • Von's •

I’m not a huge green apple fan, either. But these do look good - orange flavored candy has always been my favorite. Thanks for the find!

bottom feeder, I just found orange lollies from Jolly Rancher yesterday. I’ll try to post about those too.
I think lemon would be wonderful. Starburst chew pops are a great invention!
I miss the starburst lollipops, cant find anywhere, from theeast coast to west coast and southern states either where did they go?
