Zotz are a great way to surprise your friends with a candy that creates for an experience that exceeds any and all expectations. When the chemical mixes with your saliva a reaction takes place and when you bite into the candy you are letting the puddle of that chemical reaction take place on your tongue. There is a lot more fizzy chemical in there than you think and the abundance of it makes the taste overwhelmingly unpleasant and I believe it is a waste of a good piece of candy. Unless you want an explosion of acidic tasting fizz filling your mouth, resist the urge to bite into the candy. I was so pleasantly surprised with this Zotz candy, but I do have a warning for you. I imagined that there was some sort of fan inside the candy blowing the little sugars into my mouth they continued pouring out for minutes! Upon looking it through the technological wizardry of the boundless internet I was surprised to find out that these Zotz weren’t the new school candy I expected, I was about to delve into a retro candy that was enjoyed before my time in the 1980s.Īs soon as this little candy hit my tongue I felt a shabam of tang and as I waited patiently I tasted a strange flavor that soon turned sweet and was enhanced as the little sour fizzy sugars began shooting out of the little hole on the side of the candy. The package looks quite generic, each individually wrapped piece of hard candy simply says “Zotz Grape” or lemon, cherry, apple, watermelon or orange.

I had never heard of this Zotz candy before so I was a bit wary at first glance. The candy itself doesn’t taste extraordinarily good, but the fizz component elevates Zotz to an OM.Zotz Candy are a retro favorite and their sour, fizzy center is sure to surprise and delight! I loved giving these to my friends, not telling them what Zotz are, and watching their surprised but pleased reactions to the fizz. It’s a pretty awesome mouthfeel experience. Unlike the Jones Soda Candy, the Zotz fizz is really in your face (or on your tongue, I guess) and leaves you foaming in the mouth. The fizz is supposed to be sour, but I found it not so much sour as “burns your throat”. Zotz are all very smooth in taste and texture and contain an ample amount of fizz. The apple Zotz was better than the Jones Soda Candy due to its creaminess and its awesome fizz factor. The apple was a smooth and creamy green apple taste that was a dead ringer for the Jones Soda Candy that I tried a while back. I’m not a huge fan of red candies, so that may have been part of it. Plus, this candy contains no peanuts, tree nuts, or milk. I can’t put my finger on why no cough drop cherry taste issues or anything like that. In addition to getting fizzy with it, Zotz is also a gluten-free candy brand as well. Unlike the watermelon, it wasn’t exactly pleasantly different. Like the watermelon, the cherry was different from the usual Jolly Rancher hard candy-style flavor. Interestingly enough, as you can see from the picture, it was more pink than red. The cherry Zotz was darker than the watermelon, both in color and in taste.
