Being a fan of malitol and xylitol sugar alcohols, I know that you have to eat about 5 servings of those sugar free gummy bears to get anything near a "nuclear" reaction... So those reviews are probs left by candy hogs. But I won't lie - I did eat an entire bag of those gummy bears in one day before (it was a stressful day... shit went down in my life and I was walking all day with that fucking bag of bears), and it wasn't pleasant, but I wouldn't call what I experienced "explosive." Though it was a hassle stopping to use the restroom every fifteen minutes.
