Ginger Chews
I tried a great product this weekend, and I wanted to share it with you all. These chews are made by The Ginger People. I have seen these in stores, and finally decided to try them. I could not resist the cute little ginger character on the package. :) The verdict: AWESOME! These ginger chews are sweet and spicy, and almost have a gingerbread taste to them. They are the perfect sweet treat after a meal. Not only are they yummy, they also offer digestive aid and are full of antioxidants, magnesium, potassium, B-vitamins and zinc. I guess you can call them healthy candies. They also come in spicy apple, peanut, and coffee flavors. I can't find the coffee flavor in my stores, but I bet the coffee ginger chews are amazing! Has anyone else tried these?

I'm very interested in these! I wonder if I could find them around me...digestive aids are always a plus and that package is to die for!
NAOmni
I've always been intrigued by these! I'm so glad you wrote a review, I will pick some up now.
It would be a perfect "dessert"!
About the Maple Sugar: My mom ordered it online from a local farmer's market but I know you can get it at Whole Foods.
They sound good! I haven't seen them before.
Digestive aid? Really? Wow, I want to try these!
I'll have to be on the lookout for these the next time I do a cross-border shopping excursion (which might be this week!).
I've never seen them before, but I will keep an eye out. When I was a kid I used to eat my moms candied ginger. When she wasn't looking anyway. :)
I haven't seen these - but if I do I will certainly check them out! The little ginger guy is so cute!
YUM! I love ginger and those sound great! I don't think I've ever seen them though...have to be on the lookout.
Thanks for your wonderful comments on my blog :D
YUM! I've seen those too and have wondered... now I know!
Ginger is also a fantastic aid when you're nauseated, or motion sick. On cruises they sell these to people who are seasick! I have a bunch just for that reason, I love ginger candy!
ooh~ candied ginger is also good mixed in with cream cheese and apricot jam and slathered over a thick bagel!
do you just eat yours as snack?
I haven't tried them yet - but now between the health benefits and how yummy they sound, how could I not want to go out and get them ;)
Thanks for the review!! They sound fabulous :)
Oooh--these might be the answer to post-dinner snacking! Healthy and sweet!! I'll check it out, thanks Meg!
mmm...i do love me some ginger, but i'm most enticed by this spicy apple! great find!
I haven't tried them, but I've seen them in the store before. I need to pick some up!
I tried them recently too and completely agree with your review!
Love the litle ginger guy!
I LOVE THEM!! At Christmas I got a sweet little jar of Ginger Babies, they make Ginger Syrup, and their packaging is so cute...yeah I love them!
ooh, haven't tried those, but now i'll be on the lookout!
I LOVE THOSE! I get Gin Gins all the time.
i would love to have the apple chews, I'm just crazy about anything apple!
I love these - of course they wouldn't be available in Canada but I'm leaving for Florida in a week and plan to source them. Thanks for the great tip.
Interesting. I hear ginger is good for motion sickness which I get a lot. I love ginger - pickled ginger at the Japanese restaurant, ginger beer. Yum!
have you ever tried Reeds Ginger Beer or Reeds ginger chews? They are my favorite soda and candy- so spicy and sweet and all-natural/guilt free (nearly!) I asked for them for Christmas this year (and got them, too)!
