Candy that Wiggles

I was walking around Kroger the other day and came upon a refrigerated package of little jello bites (they're actually Gel Bites made by Kroger - but to me if it looks like jello, well, that's what I call it).  On impulse, I decided to grab a bag - strawberry in case you were curious. :)  As soon as I got to the car I opened them right up. Usually, after grocery shopping I'd start digging for something more along the lines  of - oh I don't know, cookies,  candy, or chips.  Jello bites are a much better grab for the car ride home!!  I'm pretty excited about my little find.  Sure, I could make something like that on my own -  BUT just knowing that there is something at the grocery store I can grab for a quick fix is a bit of a relief. I mean it's sorta candy that wiggles. That's fun! ;)

I was even thinking these little Gel Bites could help me out of a bind (or binge ;) ) in the future. Let's say I'm with a group of friends and the crowd winds ups at one of my old favorites like Sweet CeCe's, if I'm feeling a little low on the will power,  I now know I can make a quick run for some jello bites and not feel left out. I mean that may never happen, but I like to have little game plans in my head in case such a situation ever arises.

Hope this little tip helps.
