Haribo fans around the world have recently found themselves in the midst of a surprising debate over the true identity of a classic sweet found in Tangfastics. For years, many have believed this particular candy to be shaped like a key, only to discover that there is actually a difference of opinion on what it truly represents.

The discussion first gained traction on Reddit, where a perplexed husband turned to the platform to settle an ongoing argument with his wife. He shared, “After five years of marriage, we’ve just discovered that my wife and I refer to this particular Haribo sweet as something different to each other. What do you call this Haribo?”. This post sparked a flurry of responses from users, all with varying interpretations of the sweet’s shape.

Reddit users were divided on the matter, with some staunchly believing that the candy resembled a dummy, while others were adamant that it was a key. In a surprising twist, one user even suggested that the sweet could be seen as a looking glass. The debate continued to rage on, with one user admitting, “I used to call them keys before I found out they were dummies.”

As the discussion unfolded, it became apparent that there were differing opinions on the true nature of the sweet. One commenter shared their realization, stating, “I always thought they were meant to be a fizzy version of the ‘ring’ Haribos but dummy makes sense now that I take another look at it.” Another user maintained, “It was a key to me but I know they’re apparently dummies. But they’re clearly not dummies.”

Finally, Haribo stepped in to put an end to the speculation, confirming that the candy is, indeed, a dummy. This announcement brought clarity to fans who can now enjoy packets filled solely with this controversial confection. One observant user pointed out, “Dummies, it says so on their packaging…”, while another confidently declared, “It’s a dummy. The things babies put in their mouths.”

In a surprising turn of events, Haribo also revealed that their green gummy bears are actually strawberry-flavored, contrary to popular belief. This revelation sent shockwaves through social media, with users expressing their disbelief and confusion over the unexpected flavor profile. Tweets flooded in, with one person jokingly threatening to “call the police over whether the green Haribo gummy bears are strawberry or apple.”

Despite the flavor lineup being clearly listed on the packet and Haribo’s website – orange, strawberry, pineapple, lemon, and raspberry – many fans were caught off guard by the revelation. The unexpected twist in the sweet world left many reeling and questioning their assumptions about their favorite candies.

As the debate over Tangfastics’ key sweet continues to unfold, it’s clear that Haribo has managed to surprise and delight fans with the unveiling of the truth behind their iconic candies. Whether you’re a key enthusiast or a dummy devotee, one thing is for certain – Haribo’s treats will always keep us guessing.
