Great, but
I bought a bag of these candies and out of the whole bag never got a single Strawberry one. Cherry is my all-time favorite but really wanted to try a strawberry.

Would be nice you got these back in stock...
Or at least were upfront with customers if you're planning on discontinuing them

Factory rejected? Irregular?
I bought 5 bags as an aid to stop smoking. Nearly every piece once unwrapped, had tiny plastic remnants stuck to one end or both. Invisible to the naked eye. But caused issues after 2 minutes as the candy surrounding the plastic would melt away, and leave what became a sharp jagged point. Half of each bag was filled with misshapened pieces. It's as if they are selling their facility rejected products on their website. There's no other logical reason for it. I was so frustrated that after looking through the 5th bag, I just tossed it out. I've bought at least 50 of that same product from store shelves over the years, n have seldom had that issue with more than one piece per bag. I think they were wrapped prematurely. I'll NEVER buy from their website again!

Melted candy
I love the Reds! A lot of the melted in the wrapping from sitting in the Florida heat.

4 Flavors not equal :( in 13 oz. bag.
I just bought 2 bags looking for watermelon since they aren't sold seperately any more:( The first bag contained 24 Strawberry, 22 Cherry, 12 Watermelon and only 2 Fruit Punch. The second bag contained 22 Strawberry, 23 Cherry, only 9 Watermelon and only 6 Fruit Punch. So out of 120 pieces, I only got 21 Watermelons. I should be fairly equal with each flavor. So if your favorites are Cherry or Strawberry, this bag is for you. I was disappointed. They need to sell the 32 oz box and 7 oz bag of Watermelon again.

Not enough cherry
Cherry has been my favorite since I was a kid. Most packs whether is reds or assorted do not have enough cherry flavored candy.

Not a good mix of reds
I’m not sure why they call this a mix, there was 1 fruit punch in the entire bag! Very disappointed.
1 reply from HERSHEY'S team - 5 years ago
We regret to hear about the number of fruit punch flavor in this particular batch. All flavors are manufactured in equal quantities. However, as the product approaches the packaging machine, the way in which the product falls into the package determines the variety of flavors found in the packages. Occasionally too few or too many of one flavor may be found in the packages. We will inform the appropriate department.

Disproportionate flavors
I actually like all the flavors in this assortment, but there is a disproportionate amount of flavors included. I read another review where someone found the same thing and the representative wrote back saying the mix was carefully calculated. Well, my mix (based on 2 bags purchased) looked nothing like her mix and both bags I bought had overwhelming amounts of cherry and just a couple of watermelon pieces (which are my favorite, but I will eat all these I like fruit punch and strawberry about the same and last cherry). Why not just put equal amounts of each flavor into each bag? That seems like a fairer solution. My guess is corporate realizes they can sell more bags of candy by including fewer pieces of the favored flavors. I had this same experience with HI-CHEWs (literally just wrote a review) sadly with those I only like one flavor (watermelon, surprise!) and didn't get a one. I am sooooo glad Jolly Rancher is at least making the red assortment, I can't stand grape and that's the flavor that gets ratio-ed in the regular assortment when I buy them.

Lacks flavor
The bag I received had a decent ratio of flavors but I find these to lack the bit of tartness that comes with an original jolly rancher. Many of the unique types in this mix are overly sweet and lack flavor.

Didn’t count before starting the bag but have noticed the ratio of flavors isn’t even but not crazy different (did notice more cherry but still enough of the other ones). I love all the flavors so that didn’t matter to me.

ratio of flavors is horrible!
i bought this bag of awesome red flavors, excited for fruit punch, cherry and strawberry. i’m not a huge fan of watermelon but felt it was worth buying to have the other flavors. I was very surprised when over half of the candies were watermelon (31/58) while only 14/58 were strawberry, 7/58 were cherry, and only 6/58 were fruit punch. i was very disappointed to say the least.

Jolly Rancher flavors are delicious
True, the ratio of each flavor is not equal but all of the flavors are delicious! So I enjoyed them. I almost didn't buy them because of the reviews but luckily I read the reviews and realized the poor reviews weren't about the quality or product but rather about the quantity of each flavor in the bag. I just ordered a 2nd bag!

Great mix
I love this mix. Bought 2 now are out of stock at my Target. I guess people were thinking the same thing.

Someone didn’t get the memo...
I bought “awesome” reds only for the cherry flavor. And wouldn’t you know it!!! NO CHERRY AT ALL!! Not ONE. Now stuck with a bag of flavors I’m not remotely interested in. So much for “Awesome”....

Only 2 Watermelons!
These taste great but the ratio of flavors inside the package is horrible. 19 strawberry, 5 cherry, 4 fruit punch, and only 2 watermelon!!! I know it would be difficult to put an equal amount of each flavor in the bag but this doesn't even come close. Watermelon is the best flavor and I was SO disappointed to only get 2 of them.
