REVIEW / Sour Final Boss

I’ve come across my fair share of letdowns with "social shopping." We’ve all been there, haven’t we? Seeing something trending on social media, getting swept away by the hype, only to face the harsh truth. A neck cream that seems like a magic potion ends up being a phony, a sling for my older Yorkie that becomes a canine scarefest, or the chili crisp that spills everywhere, turning my mailman into an unwitting foe. But, for every flop, there’s a winner. Enter Final Boss Sour, the über-sour candy featuring real dried fruit that has taken over my feeds – and this one’s a crowd-pleaser.


Feeling those classic Super Mario world map vibes, anyone?

Before tackling the art of sour snacking, the minds behind this candy, James Hicks and Tommy Riggs, were busy at Science Inc., a venture studio known for backing brands like Liquid Death and Dollar Shave Club. So, it’s no shocker humor and video game nostalgia are woven into their brand DNA. But Final Boss Sour goes all out with its quirky story. Meet Hank, a grumpy honey badger who accidentally unleashes the sour sorcerer’s spirit from an ancient jar of expired pickles. Now freed, the sour essence threatens Gooberland, prompting Hank to join forces with Quinnie, a sweet quokka, to gather the sour fruit and restore the balance. It’s not just about the candy—there’s a whole world, complete with character backstories and an email series, The Gooberland Gazette, to delve deeper into the "Sour-verse."


The intense atmosphere of Level 4 and the ominous clouds suggest the ultimate sourness challenge awaits.

With its eye-catching branding, Final Boss Sour doesn’t stop there. Although there’s no retro-style video game tie-in, you’re in for a challenge that’s more daring than anything on your console. I could snack on Level 1 candies all day with their perfect fruitiness and a slight tang. But anyone who can tackle Levels 2 and 3 without flinching is not from this planet. Perfect for a game night or a drinking session (or a mix of both!), the VIP Destroyer Ultimate Sour Sampler Box is a must-try. This sampler box lets you experience cranberries, blueberries, and strawberries in three escalating sourness intensities, the ultimate test for any social gathering.

Free from artificial ingredients and nasty stuff, Final Boss Sour caters to the health-conscious without losing its identity as candy. Each pouch contains 20-22 grams of sugar, a median between options like Sour Patch Kids (24g) and Trolli Sour Brite Crawlers (10g), minus the lengthy chemical list. Made with just five ingredients—real dried fruit, cane sugar, sunflower oil, citric acid, and malic acid—this candy reminds us of what it means to taste pure sourness. In the grand scale of sweet versus sour, Level 1 Sour Strawberries hit the sweetest notes for me.


A text thread with my boss reveals a blossoming sour strawberry intrigue.

Their special releases are another story. I had a taste of the Strawberry Kiwi Level 2, and suddenly Level 1 Strawberries lost their appeal, until I realized the batch had sold out. With hot releases like Sour Strawberry Mango Level 2 or the chocolate-covered Sour Cherries flying off the shelves, it’s no surprise. Keep your eyes peeled for their monthly drops to snag some next-level sourness.


Just imagine if the D.A.R.E. program focused on sour candies in lieu of other warnings!

For nostalgic souls, healthy snackers, or fans of a good challenge, Final Boss Sour is an enticing option. Snagging your first box for free with a DFB purchase sweetens the deal, just bear in mind – the first taste is how they hook you in.

A heads up, Final Boss Sour provided a sample to me for this write-up. But let’s be real, I’ve bought three more orders since. So much for resisting the allure of sour!

Review Summary
Hurts So Good – Once again, the brilliant algorithm reveals its mastery over my desires. This sweet-sour combo of genuine fruit and appreciable intensity certainly matches the online buzz. It nearly scored a 10, but took a slight slip because I mistakenly grabbed a few Level 1 Blueberries in a dimly lit setting, enduring their Level 3 punch until my sister pointed out my error. The sting might be gone, but those funny memories linger.

Score: 9.9/10
