They're neither of those things. They're "fruit snacks", which, though similar to gummies, use pectin and sugars from real fruit, rather than gelatin and sugars from beets, corn, or cane sugar.

i can tell you for a fact there isn't any actual fruit in either of those snacks

but fruit snacks is not indicative of what they are

there's fruit snacks that are clearly gummies

but then you have these two which could also be taffy

They absolutely can not be taffy. Taffy is made from boiled sugar (though corn syrup is more likely these days) and butter or vegetable oil. The production process involves stretching the boiled mixture until air bubbles start to form, thus giving it its soft texture. Fruit By The Foot and Fruit Roll-Ups are not produced by stretching to form air bubbles, as they're simply thin sheets of a gelled mixture.

Fruit Roll-Ups use fruit pectin as a gelling agent, while Fruit By The Foot uses carrageenan for the same purpose. Both products contain pear puree concentrate, which is where some of the sugar content comes from.

I'd also vote neither. Taffy is a totally different item. Gummies are more of a bouncy gelatin snack. Not really sure what to qualify FbtF or a roll-up as...
