What is so terrible about this?

The fact that it is Halal? They also make candies which are Kosher @ http://www.paskesz.com/ .

Some of those Kosher candies look very good...

A good amount of products on the supermarket shelves in my town are certified Kosher with the OU Heksher...



Because Haribo products produced in Haribo's factory in Turkey are made with beef gelatin and are certified HALAL. And the fact they are made in an islamic country is a reason not to support them. Of course our Christrian bears are made in Christian countries.

Haribo does make better tasting gummi bears than trolli though

Yes, because they are from Germany  ;D

Sorry, but then you can't buy ANYTHING. any clothes labelled "Made in Italy" are produced in Turkey. Volkswagen and many other German and Western firms actually produce in Turkey in order to make these products available there in a low income also. But you can only do so by producing it there! It is a country of 70 million and thus a non-neglectible market for most firms.
You can HARDLY find out where many things come from. An orange juice producer may use also fruits from Turkey.
Haribo produces in Turkey also. So what? If it was a Turkish firm - then I would boycott them. Would you want to get out which firms are trading with Muslim countries? Then you should boycott MOST German firms, since our economy is very exportation orientated!
