Have you ever heard of UNREAL? The story behind the candy is exactly that: UNREAL! It happened after a dad took away his son's candy after a night of trick-or-treating. The son was then on a mission to take the junk out of candy. Enjoy your candy with the unnecessary GMOs, corn syrup, or preservatives! On their website, you can compare their products to the "mainstream" candies to see the real difference!
We usually order ours from Amazon:
I'm sure you have seen Justin's Nut Butter packets but did you know they also have "candy"?
