When i lived in CT they were easy to find because i worked at a holistic place that sold them. Now I live in VA and cant find them. I have looked at my trader joes, vitamin shoppe, and a couple of other stores. If anyone is using ginger candies where did you buy them

    The lawsuit, I think, is about the candied or crystallized ginger. Trader Joes also sells ginger candy chews that are made by a different company, or at least they did when I worked there.

    If you cant find ginger, then sour candies work well for nausea too.  MAybe try some lemon drops.

    I found the Chimes ginger candies at Fresh Market, if you have one nearby. You can also buy them by the pound or 3 pounds, if you're in serious need on Amazon.

     

    BTW: I checked the list of companies named in the law suit listed above and Chimes is not on the list.

    Baby's r us has preggie drops and I really like those. Also jolly ranchers help, but not as much as preggie drops.

    cvs has ginger gum as well...I got it but wasn't very fond of the taste.

    I'm in VA too. I bought the five pound bag of Chimes from Amazon. I ate them before being pregnant too. Yum!

    There is a lawsuit going on right now for lead being in some of the ginger candies at Trader Joe's... I know that there are a few other stores that were mentioned on the Feb. 2014 board as well. I would steer clear of the ginger candy, and maybe try jolly ranchers, or the Preggie Pop Drops (you can get them on amazon).

    This!  I've been using Jolly Ranchers, and they work great.  My sister got me some preggy pops, she swears by them.
