Sugar-coated lies

I thought it was generally accepted that if a gummy candy is coated in sugar, then that sugar is assumed to be sour.

Apparently not, because the sugar-coated gummy worms I bought downstairs were not in the least bit sour (much to my disappointment). I blame that misconception for the past hour, which I have wasted on the Internet. My foundation of knowledge has been rocked. How am I supposed to do work when I can't even depend on the lip-puckering, mouth-watering sour deliciousness of gummy worms? Oh, the misery.
