Why did we start talking about the bears? Simple – the sweet worms have become more popular than even the world-famous gummy bear. Today, the Gummi Worm sweets come in completely different flavors, and can be one or many colors. They are also used in ice cream, spirits, and cakes. According to statistics, the market for chewy worms will reach $40 billion by 2024.
