By making fruit-flavoured kosher and gluten-free candies, Mike and Ike have found a huge market. The biggest seller of fruit-flavoured sweets in the US is Mike and Ike, which offers both sweet and sour flavours. These oblong and fruit-flavoured chewy candies are available in different varieties, including cherry, strawberry, orange, and lemon. Popular varieties are Tropical Typhoon, Berry Blast and Jolly Joes. Each candy has 7 calories, 0 grams of fat, and approximately 1 gram of sugar. Since 1940, the Just Born, Inc. company has manufactured these fruit-flavoured candies under the Mike and Ike brand. Despite many theories, it is unknown where the candy's name came from. Original Mike and Ikes were all fruit flavoured, but have since been introduced in several varieties. Mike and Ike have maintained their status as one of the leading candy companies in the world for over 70 years.

Nerds, which are made by Ferrara Candy Company, a subsidiary of Ferrero Group, were introduced by Sunmark Corporation in 1983. It is said that the Nerd was named after the Dr. Seuss book 'If I Ran the Zoo' in which a 'nerd' is mentioned as one of the creatures the narrator would collect for his zoo. Nerds usually come packaged in square carton boxes with two flavours each, each with its own compartment and opening.

Originally known as Mars Men, the Sour Patch Kids were created by Frank Galatolie in the early 1970s for Jaret International. During the late 1970s, Cadbury and Smeera Blyton Licorice Company of Sweden formed the Allen Candy Company in Hamilton, Ontario, to produce them. During the 1985 redesign, they became Sour Patch Kids, which is now owned by Santi. This name change may have been motivated by Cabbage Patch Kids' popularity. They are sweet and sour, just as advertised. There are most candies that only challenge one aspect of the tongue; however, Sour Patch Kids challenge two of those aspects, primarily sweet and sour. In science terms, this makes Sour Patch Kids more advanced than any other candy.
