Good & Fruity

Good & Fruity is a multicolored, multiflavor candy with a similar shape to Good & Plenty. Unlike Good & Plenty, Good & Fruity contained red licorice. It was produced by Hershey Foods. Good & Fruity appeared to be out of production for some time, but following the circulation of an online petition which was eventually signed by more than 2,000 Good & Fruity enthusiasts, [http://www.petitiononline.com/gnfrty/petition.html] was returned to the Hershey Foods lineup in March 2008. The recipe is different from the original and 1992 versions, the newer version (3rd recipe) is closer to a jelly bean and less like a red licorice. The name has also been changed, it used to be "Good n' Fruity". The candy now contains the following flavors: lemon, lime, cherry, orange, and blue raspberry.

Prior to 1992, all Good & Fruity candies contained the same-flavored red gummy center, relying upon the hard candy shell to provide the different flavor according to color. Sometime around 1992, however, the formula was changed and the candies' interiors became color & flavor-coordinated with the outer shell to give the candy a "fruitier" taste. The resulting candy texture is far closer to a small jelly bean than to the traditional Good & Plenty crisp outside, chewy inside texture.
