  1. Good source for iron and no different than eating blood sausages or black pudding. I personally don’t like them (cause they used to have little cows on the packaging, and also not my cup of tea in flavor), but they’re not bad.

  2. I mean if you’re vegetarian/vegan.. sure. If not. You eat this you fight like a Ukrainian soldier. One day you might need this power so if you don’t wanna eat it now just save it for later.

  3. They are not as popular as you might think, usually sold in pharmacies (like real pharmacies, not American ones that sell medicine, snacks, lottery tickets and dog toys), I probably never saw a friend ever buy and eat one of them in public.

    Also, ask her to try and get the one in yellow wrapper with linseed, those are really good.

  4. I remember I ate one before my blood check. Almost everything was topping the charts. Its crazy how effective this thing is.

  5. here we go again 🙄 theyre a supplement to prevent anemia in children, made into a candy bar so its at least palatable. it is *good* that the entire animal is being used.

  6. It’s weird but tasty for me. Though its not a snack you get often. Its for people who need iron, like vegans or ppl with anemia. Basically a food supplement, as it says on the package.

    Edit: omg its not even vegan!!!! Jesus, people these days. I made a mistake, big deal. Also there are plenty vegans who still end up eating non-vegan things without knowing, or with their knowledge. Is air vegan anymore? Thats the true question. I’m sure there’s an argument to be made that humanity is monopolizing oxygen from poor poor animals…

  7. Hehe love those. Also my son always picks one when we go to pharmacy to buy medicine. Seems he also likes them as there are other choices there.

  8. I just now learnt that this is a food supplement. I thought it’s Lithuanian version of the black licorice candy in scandinavian countries – we eat it but no one gets why.

  9. doesn’t matter, it doesn’t taste like blood at all, people still eat skittles and many other candies which use insects for their dye

  10. Pretty sure they don’t use blood anymore to make these, in the soviet times yeah they used pig blood to get iron the iron for it. If it had actual blood in it you would really feel it.

  11. You go eat potatoes with marshamallows and feed it to your children while our children eat delicious iron filled candy bars. +Plenty of vitamin c

  12. I didn’t know they had blood in them for the longest time (idk how) and I would just regularly eat them as a candy bar. After finding out, I still kept eating them regularly cuz they’re tasty.
