Hey everyone, I've been taking collagen gummies for a few months now and I'm obsessed with the strawberry flavor - they taste like candy! But I tried the orange ones last week and they were awful, kinda bitter and artificial. I'm about to reorder and don't want to waste money on another bad flavor. What's the consensus on the best flavor out there? Should I just stick with strawberry or is there another one that's even better?

First of all, congrats on choosing sugar-free options! I've tried all the sugar-free varieties and honestly, the mixed berry is my go-to. The strawberry is good but sometimes too sweet even without sugar, you know? The mixed berry has a more balanced taste and doesn't have that weird aftertaste some of the fruit flavors get. Plus, no sugar crash!

Totally agree with Olivia on going sugar-free! I actually like the citrus blend - it's got lemon, lime, and grapefruit. Way better than straight orange. The bitterness you mentioned might be from whatever they use to mask the collagen taste in the orange ones. Citrus blend hides it better IMO. But if you're really sensitive, maybe try the tropical mix? Pineapple and mango are pretty forgiving flavors.

Fellow health nut here! 🥦 While flavor matters for consistency (gotta take them daily!), have you checked the ingredient profiles? Some flavors use different natural sweeteners or additives. The strawberry might have beet juice for color while orange uses turmeric - that could explain the taste difference! Personally I rotate between strawberry and lemon-ginger (great for digestion!). The key is finding what you'll actually take every day!
