These Meiji Pupurun Grape Gummis came in my generous free sample box from Tsunami. They came in a conveniently resealable bag with a cute mascot and an intriguing rendering of the gummi’s cross-section.
Each gummi was the size of a gum drop but with a rounder domed shape. They had a stiff outer shell that was thickest at the top. The center was a softer gummi that was just shy of an oozy goo in texture.
They tasted sweet and juicy with a nice floral flavor that I thought was more strawberry than grape. The finish, however, had a noticeable grape taste that tasted quite genuine and was not at all medicinal.
While there was nothing revolutionary about the flavor of the gummis, I absolutely loved the texture. The solid flavor combined with their unique texture earned these an OM.
These grape gummis also contain 1200mg of collagen. Popular among many japanese products to support skin and healthcare.
