Mountain Dew Trolli Sour Brite Crawlers Gummies Taste Test Comparison - 2025/12/26

Mountain Dew Sour Bright Crawlers Trolli Gummies! I can't remember where I first saw them, but when you see a product that contains two things that you love, you know you have to give it a try. We're always trying different kinds of flavors of Mountain Dew, but I can't think of too many times where they've actually put their name on something other than soda. 

Maybe just the one time we had Mountain Dew Doritos that I imported from Australia. Oh yeah, and some Mountain Dew Cheetos from Japan back in 2014. 

And today's taste test isn't just one Mountain Dew flavored gummy. There's 3! Those are some funky eyes they put on the worms on the packaging too. 

And like we always do when we have one of these taste tests, I'll try to get the original thing to compare it to. 

The back of the gummy package says we are going to try Original Citrus Cherry, Original Citrus, and Original Citrus Blue Raspberry. 

And to try with them, we'll be drinking Mtn Dew Code Red (with a rush of Cherry flavor), Original Mtn Dew, and Mountain Dew Voltage (Raspberry Flavor with other Natural Flavors). 

I love how these gummy works look! Not just a single color throughout, but a swirl of dark and light colors. 

Donald - They look terrible! But I'm excited to try them. 

Amy - They look like actual worms. 

This was a taste test that multiple people have been looking forward to. Everyone has their cup ready to go. Except Ian. 

Joe - Ian, you will need a cup. Otherwise I'll just pour it into your mouth. 

Theresa - I want to try the gummies and then the soda, one at a time. 

I started cutting up the gummy crawlers into smaller bite pieces. 

Tyler - Do we think they're not any good or...? 

Joe - I just know Theresa and she's going to want me to cut it in half, and then she'll tell me to cut it in half again. You can have a whole worm if you want. 

Theresa - You know me so well. 

How is the Original Citrus? 

Theresa - Green! 

Joe - Oh yeah, that's a lemon and lime. Citrusey. 

Tyler - That's pretty fantastic. 

Joe - They're soft too. They're bigger than normal Sour Bright Crawlers too. 

Ian - It does vaguely remind me of Mountain Dew. 

Tyler - The longer you chew on it, the more it tastes like Mountain Dew. 

Jacob - I wasn't sure at the start, but yes, the longer you have it, it's more and more. 

Joe - It's a slow burn. 

The kids both slamming their cups down. They're ready for Mountain Dew. 

Theresa - It do love Mountain Dew. 

Jacob - And this is the fully leaded stuff too. Full sugar! Not Diet! 

Ian - Now that I taste the Mountain Dew again, the gummy tastes a lot like it. 

Aubrey - The Mountain Dew has less lemon-lime flavor than the worms do. 

Theresa - Agreed. But I still taste the combination of flavors from it. 

Joe - Of the three, regular Mountain Dew is my favorite compared to cherry and raspberry.

Donald - Same. 
Theresa - There is never a comparison. 

Joe - Ian, which one are we doing next? Blue Raspberry or Cherry?

Ian - I don't really care. 

Joe - Okay! Thanks for picking! Blue Raspberry then. 

Rita - Mmm! I like that! 

Ian - It's subtle. It's good. 

Rita - Listen to all of us smacking. 

Tyler - It's a little like cotton candy. 

Joe - It's not as sour as like Sour Punch Straws. 

Alli - Like a Sour Patch Kid with less sour. 

Aubrey - It's a good blue raspberry. 

And what about the Mountain Dew Voltage? Raspberry Mountain Dew. 

Joe - Has anyone tried this flavor before? 

Aubrey - Oh, that's gross. The worm is way better. 

Tyler - That's nothing like the gummy worm. 

Alli - This is raspberry. The worm is blue raspberry. 

Rita - I don't like it. 

Jacob - It's like raspberry meets marshmallow. 

Theresa - It's alright (which is surprising because she doesn't usually like raspberry things). It's mild. 

Rita - I like the gummy worm pretty well. 

Tyler - The gummy worm is way better than the drink. 

Jacob - The drink has a weird aftertaste. 

Tyler - The flavor doesn't bother me, but I don't taste much carbonation. 

Time for the Cherry Citrus worm. 

Ian - It tastes like Trolli Cherry. 

Theresa - Like the Trolli Cherry where the other half of the worm is yellow. 

Aubrey - And I like that one. 

Joe - I wish it were stronger. 

Theresa - Totally cherry. 

Joe - I get the cherry that you get with those cheap suckers. 

Rita - It's very mild. 

Donald - I don't know if I've ever had Code Red Mountain Dew. 

Jacob - You're in for a treat. 

Ian - We know it. We love it. It's Code Red. 

Joe - What are you thinking for the taste? 

Aubrey - I don't taste as much cherry in the drink as I do the worm. 

Joe - I don't get a lot of citrus from the cherry drink. I get a lot more cherry. 

If you need to go back and try anything again, feel free. Figure out which one you like the best. 

Rita - The blue drink is the worst, but the blue worm is the best! Regular Mountain Dew is best. 

Aubrey - I like the cherry worm the best. Then the blue and green last. And Mountain Dew, Code Red, then Raspberry. 

Donald - I would eat all those! Grab a bag at a football game, I'd snack on those. 

Tyler - You'd eat those if they were just in our pantry. 

Aubrey - Everything tastes better when you eat it in the pantry. 

Joe - I wouldn't be disappointed with a bag of those.

Theresa - The worms were all pretty tasty. 

Donald - The original worm was probably my least favorite flavor worm. But Code Red might be my new favorite pop (Michiganders and calling soda "pop"). Jacob told me I was in for a treat and I was. My favorite worm was blue. Cotton Candy. 

Alli - My favorite worms were green, red, then blue. And Code Red, Green, and Blue. 

Tyler - I like the regular drink, but the blue worm. But I did not like the blue drink. 

Austin - The blue drink and blue worms were my favorite. Then red gummy and Code Red. And then green gummy and green Mountain Dew. 

Amy - Drink, I'll go OG, then Blue, then Red. Gummies green, blue, and red. 

Joe - I like the green gummy, followed by blue and red. And drinks regular, Code Red, and Voltage. 

Jacob - Best gummies were green, red, then blue. And Code Red wins by a landslide. Mountain Dew a smaller landslide. That blue stuff is bleh. 

Ian - My order for the worms is red, blue and green. And Red, Green, Blue for the sodas.

Theresa - I like the blue, green and red worms. I like them all pretty good. And the Mountain Dew original. And all the other flavored Mountain Dews, they're drinkable, but they're not preferred.  

Leaving the gummies out at the house afterwards, they didn't last too long. Not a bad gummy at all. That was a good collaboration between Trolli and Mountain Dew!
