"Kids and grown-ups love it so, the happy world of Haribo"

"Kids & Grown-ups love it so, the Happy World of Haribo..." there aren't many people who haven't heard the famous slogan, and there probably aren't many people who haven't recently eaten some form of Haribo yummy gummy sweet.

Here are some funny facts that we bet you didn't know about the brand...


1. Hans Riegel - the owner and operator of Haribo - notoriously didn't believe in ad agencies, and wrote the slogans including “Kids and grown-ups love it so -- the happy world of Haribo” and other TV commercials himself. Entrepreneurial.


2. Believe it or not you can have breast implants made of the famous Gummy Bears. That's right -FDA-approved since 2006, Gummy Bear breast-enhancers are designed with a silicone gel to have the same specific texture and feel as a a gummy bear. Curious.


3. Thanks to the delicious, porky gelatin, Haribo technically isn't vegetarian. But they do make a gelatin-free Gold-Bear especially for the veggie/Muslim market. Responsible.





4. The hard-working scientists at Haribo are currently developing a gummy loaded with tooth-protective xylitol, meaning it’ll actually be good for you (AND it’ll have vitamins in it). Is there nothing they can’t do?! Expert.


Haribo is certainly a brand that has not suffered the fate of modern day tastes, and continues to to make kids and grown-ups as happy as ever.
