Toxic Waste Nuclear Sludge Blue Raspberry Chew Bar

Courtesy of the All Candy Expo, I was able to try two of the Nuclear Sludge Chew Bars from Toxic Waste: the blue raspberry and the sour apple.

Blue Raspberry: I’m a Candy Addict who loves sour things and I’m telling you woohoo is this sour! The blue raspberry flavor started out really sour and just got more sour as I chewed. By the time I’d chewed enough to swallow, my eyes were watering. The flavor reminds me of a sour version of those blue Popsicles. Unfortunately, the first chew ended with a bit of a bitter taste and subsequent bites got progressively more bitter. I’d have liked it more if it just stuck with the sour. The texture was moderately chewy, taking a long time to chew any given bite.

Toxic Waste Nuclear Sludge Sour Apple Chew Bar

Sour Apple: The sour apple flavor was more consistently sour than the blue raspberry – it didn’t make my eyes water by the time I finished chewing, but overall the strong sourness was more constant. Although it wasn’t bitter, it did have a weird aftertaste. The texture was different from the blue raspberry, too. I found the sour apple took a lot of work to chew.

Overall, these are not for the faint-hearted or anyone who likes their candy just a bit tart. If you’re looking for a major pucker experience and you like chewy candy, you might want to try these.

    ooh, I miss the “I can’t believe it’s so sour” licorice sticks too! They were the best sour candy I’ve ever had by far!The cherry and grape flavors were especially good. I would go thru a tub of the stuff every week. I wish they were still produced.
