Joyride underwent a rather significant shift earlier this year when YouTuber Ryan Trahan came on board, and the low-sugar gummy candy company went from a variety of shapes, sizes and flavors, and moved to being entirely about better-for-you sour candy strips. Gone were Berry Guppies, Sour Gummy Worms, Licorice Twists, and Joyride’s many other almost no sugar gummies, and in their place were four flavors of sour strips in Blue Raspberry, Strawberry, Pink Lemonade, and Green Apple.
There was no mention of why all of the original treats were dropped or if they’d ever come back to the Joyride family, and it has somewhat happened. There are now Sour Watermelon Wedges and Strawberry Twists, and if you get in on its latest promotion, there are three completely new innovations that only five lucky individuals will get to experience. Joyride has crafted three special edition low-sugar candies, and the only way to get your hands on them is by entering a giveaway.
Basically, for the next several weeks, there is a QR code on the back of specially marked bags of Joyride’s tasty, better-for-you candy that, when you scan, then upload your receipt showing that you purchased a bag of the product at your local Target. You can enter once per day, and from this month until the end of December, the brand will randomly select five individuals to send a bag of each of the three all-new flavors. The products are Sour Survival Ropes, Cosmic Astro Bears, and Sour Rock Crawlers, and again, the only way to get the flavors is to be 1 of 5 winners of the giveaway.
