Haribo!

Favorite of Pietr Sagan Haribo announced their first NA production facility right here in WI. Perhaps @kpollich can make a quick trip down from the Milwaukee area to do a quality control visit once they're up and running.

HARIBO macht Kinder froh und Erwachsene ebenso

They're too expensive and lack variety in the states hopefully this chages that.

Can they be used as a temporary patch to a big gash in a clincher? Good enough to ride home?

I love Haribo, my stomach does not. I'll investigate and report back come spring.

Not far from the Jelly Belly factory. I hope Haribo also has a factory store. My kids buy different Haribo products from 5 Below stores. I like them.

There is some truly inspired writing among these reviews.

At least in the immediate term, if not in the long term as well.

The company literally has the words "fox" and "con" in its name...

Pledged donation to UW not yet met, after two years of waiting

Conditions for receiving tax breaks/incentives yet to be met, with State of Wisconsin contemplating clawbacks

I first heard about the company when I was building my own PCs from scratch. If I am in the market in the near future, I will not spend a cent on its products.
