For many people, a packet of Haribo sweets is their go-to when it comes to satiating their sweet tooth.
And, fortunately for us, the company has a whole range of different sweet varieties including Jelly Babies, Gummy Bears, Starmix and - of course - Tangfastics.
The latter, however, has proved to spark quite the discussion online over the correct name of one of its components.

Now, in a Tangfastics packet, you'll be treated to quite the array of different shapes and flavours like fizzy cola bottles, sour cherries and crocodiles.
But, it's clear that people have been left seriously shocked after realising what the Haribo 'key' sweet actually is.

After being perplexed by the age-old question, one person took to Reddit to share a pic of the sweet in question, captioning the snap: "What do you call this Haribo?"

Needless to say, Redditors couldn't wait to share their verdict with people sharing a whole load of different answers.
One Reddit user penned: "Used to think it was a magnifying glass..."
"Looking glass," wrote a second while a third speculated: "The thing you use to blow bubbles!"
Others, however, stuck to their guns convinced the sweet depicted a key with a fourth writing: "Sour key!"

"Oooooh! All these years and I thought it was a key!" quipped a fifth while a sixth chimed in: "I call it the key."
A seventh chirped: "It was a key to me but I know they’re apparently dummies. But they’re clearly not dummies"
"I used to call them keys before I found out they were dummies," revealed and eighth.

Well, it would appear as if 'dummy' was the actual correct answer considering the majority of comments were totally hellbent on the sweet's dummy status.
"It’s a dummy," declared a ninth, clarifying: "The things babies put in their mouths."
A tenth agreed: "Dummy. My son taught me that you should put the long bit through the hole (yes I know that sounds bad!) to make the dummy."

"It's a pacifier, pull the green part through the hole," echoed another.
And a final Reddit user aptly agreed: "Fizzy dummy."
Haribo itself has confirmed that the correct answer is in fact a dummy and not a key and, for fans of the particular sweet, you can even get entire buckets dedicated to the exact same shape of the sweet titled 'Haribo Giant Dummies' if you needed any more proof...
