Question Sour Sweets - Not sour enough

In a similar vein to the curry thread I'm looking to try and find some super-sour sweets. A friend recently brought back some Warheads and Toxic Waste from America and I can't deny they had a reasonable kick, especially if you took more than one on at a time, but I'm looking for the next level.

I think ideally I need to find something that is made and sold in a non-litigious society where it may actually be harmful to your health to eat

Does anyone have any suggestions of what I can try next. Ideally something that can be bought in the UK or on the interwebby I'd prefer something that can actually fold my face inside out when I put the sweet in my mouth

You could try pissing on them before consumption?

The Haribo's aren't too bad if you stuff enough of them into your mouth at once

Fruit-flavoured Sour Bears from the pick 'n' mix selection of the Dutch ' Etos' chain are so sour they make your teeth hurt!

Sour watermelons were my favourite sweets as a kid (they weren't very sour though tbf). I remember buying a whole box of 500 from the tuck shop at school once

I can't find them nowadays for a reasonable price. The only place i've seen them for sale is some website, but they wanted silly money!

Well I was going to Say "Toxic Waste" as I have some here that came from America and they are god awful, but if they aren' sour enough I don't know what is.

You cuold try salt rounds for their disgustingness - not sour, but very salty.

Coat some sweets in citric acid (powder). That'll give them a kick

It was Toxic Waste that I tried at the weekend. They were lovely but to really get a kick you had to load up more than one at a time. I was kind of hoping there was something above them - something of a seldom spoken of level of sourness only appreciated by sour sweet geeks
