“Question:
Will i get hiroshima out my bum hole only if i buy the 5lbs bag or can i buy the 3.53oz bag and still have the same outcome

Answer:
The ratio is prefectly balanced at 1lb per megaton of sphincter force. The 3.53oz bag is the more gentle Stinger Missile; while it would take approximately 1lb to achieve Hiroshima out your bum hole.

Haribo Gummy Bears have been my staple candy since I was a wee lad. I get a pack every few days and try to keep it away from the kids. We just finished a bag on the Shinkansen tonight. Great stuff.

The home of the AMC Pacer and the Renault Alliance is going to make gummy bears. What could go wrong?

I used to think these were godawful until I had a fresh one. Having a US factory should improve their shelf life.

I got introduced to these as a kid when I spent some time in Germany. I loved them but then they weren’t in the US when I came back. Glad to see they are now being produced here, although I hope quality isn’t impacted. There are all kinds of great candies and cookies from other countries that haven’t made it here yet.

What a sweet story.

Also if anyone goes to Kenosha to work there, make sure to hit up Frank’s Diner for breakfast.
