2nd time around: I'm still content with a #1 rating for Ting Ting Jahe Chews, though the #1 rating for Ginger People's Chew Chews is just a trifle higher. Here are the differences:1. Ginger People chews are nearly twice the size of Ting Tings.2. Ginger People chews are initially a hard candy that is soon broken down to a nice chewy texture. Ting Tings are soft and chewy from the first bite.3. Ginger People chews are hot from the first bite. Ting Ting Jahe Ginger is slower in bringing on the heat. The user is unlikely to experience it until the 2nd piece of candy.Conclusion: You will get more chews for your money with Ting Ting Jahe, but they're likely to go as fast as the smaller package of Ginger People chews. For individuals who are new, and perhaps hesitant to try, the taste of hot ginger, Ting Ting Jahe candy is likely to be the more enticing introduction. To the converted, on the other hand, Ginger People's chews still take the prize.Original Review:Ginger People Gin Gins are almost twice as expensive as Ting Ting ginger candy, and to some degree they justify their cost. Gin Gin's exhibit superior production values--from the wrappers to the sugary powder coating each piece. But when it comes to texture ("chewiness") and taste (authentic "burn") the two candies are close enough to make Ting Ting Jahe, which offers almost twice the number of pieces for the same price as Gin Gins, the more compelling value.The burn of Ting Ting chews is not as immediately felt as that of Gin Gins, but once noticed it offers satisfaction comparable to the hot spiciness of Gin Gins. Of course, it's always possible to have too much of a good thing, especially where sugar is a concern. So there may be good reason for calorie-conscious consumers to spend the extra for Gin Gins. Sometimes less is more, especially when the extra cost for fewer pieces can be rationalized as the expense of buying a marginally upscale product.Chewy, flavorful and not as sweet as most chocolates. I find they satisfy my sweet craving better than other candies.First, I should say that I'm mostly a fan of crystallized (sugar-dried/cured) ginger, not ginger candies. This is the first, and as of this writing, only ginger candy I would care to eat. Why? It's sugar, ginger, and a bit of tapioca starch to prevent clumping, and you can TASTE that. The texture fantastic: chewy, but it softens quickly in the mouth so you won't lose fillings. Unlike any ginger candy I've had, this actually tastes like ginger, and not just any ginger, but really high quality ginger. There is pleasant heat to it, but it's not just sugar and blazing fire. To someone who eats crystallized ginger, this is a nice treat and you'll recognize the ginger immediately. For someone who is a fan of ginger snaps and bread, you'll enjoy this too without being blown away by heat or sweetness.What I think stands out above all, is that the taste evolves from an early soft heat, to a light ginger taste, into a deep ginger flavor that you only get from the best ginger snaps. The difference is that the taste keeps going, and the heat stays pleasant, never overwhelming. I LOVE this candy, and there is one other big deal for me; it eases nausea (motion sickness) like fresh ginger I've eaten. Whatever cooking goes into making this candy, the gingerol and other goodies that make ginger taste AND helpful are still there. I bought one bag here just to try... I'm buying the multi-pack next time, by which I mean today.One note: if you want a ginger FLAVORED candy without ginger's heat and full taste... this is not for you. If you hate any kind of heat then this is not for you, but it's not a punishing heat. If you enjoy a delicious mellow heat and the subtle flavor of the best ginger snaps that lasts a shockingly long time after the candy is gone, this IS for you. If you want something to give you that ginger experience, but you need to curb the amount of crystallized ginger you're eating (tasty, but it's high calorie) this is DEFINITELY for you!!! This is a deeply satisfying treat that I wouldn't replace having tried it. Really, I can't recommend this enough.This stuff smells bad, but taste great. Its one of the hotter/spicier brands, but still not hot enough for my liking. Makes GinGins taste like pure sugar - dont know how people can stand those weak things.I dont know of any brands that are hotter on AMZ though (Ive tried a few of them), so for now this will have to do. The best you can get on amazon.Wish the packaging wasnt so wasteful though. I feel like I need to go plant an acre of trees to offset my footprint and guilt when I buy them.I started eating Ting Ting Jahe Ginger Chews for health reasons 20+ years ago. They were recommended by my nutritionist.Ting Ting Jahe Ginger Candy chews get a 5 Star rating, but this particular seller has sent me two bags that are stale.Anyone complaining that Ting Ting Jahe Ginger Candies only have "a hint of ginger" obviously did not get REAL Ting Ting Jahe brand ginger chews. These are hotter than the Fireball candies I used to eat as a kid.Ginger is a great tonic, but eating too many can throw off the balance of your chi, creating too much heat in your system. My nutritionists recommended not eating these year round.I'm feeling a bit run down and nauseous at present, so I am eating three a day to calm down my stomach and also to boost my immune system. Yes these have sugar (obviously), but I prefer them to bulk dried ginger from the health food store, as they're always covered with large sugar crystals and THEY only have a hint of ginger.Delightful candies with healthy benefits (if one does not over indulge).Highly recommend these ginger chews, will try this seller one more time in the hopes of getting a fresh bag of chews.
