Loud Truck Energy Gummies Review


I got these energy gummies a while ago from the King of Caffeine, but didn't get a chance to try them until now. I got to spend the night outside so I thought that these would make for a good, caffeine-rich snack in the middle of the night.

For starters the packaging smells a lot like a can of Monster - like sweet cough syrup with some fruity tones. All of the gummies that I got in the pack are orange in color and tasted the same - just like a regular Monster. But unlike Monster, there was something else in the taste that made them differ a bit. There was an additional sweet, cough syrup-like attribute and a very subtle bitterness. The gummies were a decent snack, but they were not as tasty as regular gummy bears. There was even that energy drink cough syrup aftertaste.

Don't expect to find a lot of caffeine in the pack of Loud Truck gummies. There are only 32 mg of the good stuff, which can be barely felt. I think I got a better kick out of the 13 grams of sugar in the pack than from the caffeine. Though I didn't get a huge kick out of them, I still enjoyed the snack.

Ingredients: corun syrup, sugar, gelatin, citric acid, sorbitol, natural and artificial flavors, guarana extract, ascorbic acid, d-ribose, d-glucuronolactone, taurine, sodium chloride, niacin, coenzyme Q10, pantothenic acid, pyrodixine hydrochloride, folic acid, biotin, vitamin B12, vegetable oil, carnauba wax.

Scores:
Cost -$1.00 from King of Caffeine
Taste - 6/10
Energy - 3/10

Overall - 9/20...almost a pass, but these gummies just don't have the stuff for the caffeine addicts. Regular folks might find them plenty energizing
