Post subject:  WTF Skittles?!?!?!?!?
So I'm eating skittles for breakfast, when all of a sudden I notice a message on the front of the bag:

"Now with GREEN APPLE"

...the fuck? Now this is a problem for me becasue it seems as though they have decided to just do away with LIME all together. LIME is the best skittle there is (or was, I suppose :roll: ). But, I push through and eat them anyway. Now, these GREEN APPLE skittles are pretty damn good. Hence the only reason this didn't end up in the DBOTW section. I'm literally torn here. I want my LIME back....but this GREEN APPLE experiment isn't a total failure.

Grape is still there...

I thought this was going to be about something else.

I thought this was about the Skittles that Panther made.

Funny you should mention those, as that is the only place you can now find the lime ones.

Haley, a reader, mentioned in the comments on the Darkside Skittles review that Midnight Lime in the Darkside mix is now the new home of the much-maligned citrus


http://www.candyblog.net/blog/item/skittles_replace_lime_with_green_apple


So, now I have to buy these bastard skittles just to get regular lime? And what if I can't find these fucking fucks anywhere?

Skittles and Gatorade for breakfast? See, I don't feel so bad.....

The GF gets on my case about my eating habits (or lack thereof)...this morning I wanted to share my excitement of losing the 5 lbs I gained from eating and drinking all weekend, and she did not want to join me. Instead, she yelled at me.

I tend to eat skittles, m&m's, that type of thing, by the small handful. Individual flavors are lost on me...

Sidenote: the "regular" Mike & Ike now claim to have some small % of real fruit juice in them. Don't know if its the juice, are some other fake ingredient that has changed, but the flavors are much "sharper" now. Not sour, just crisper and imo better.

i never understood why the flavoring is only in the shell. if it were injected into the gooey sugar center, those things would be a hell of a lot better.

anymore though, i like now and laters if i eat that kind of shit at all. i dont even like pop anymore.. water, v8 juice or if i want something sweet i go for raspberry iced tea. it only has about half the sugar pop does.

Not too many things better in this world than cherry Now & Laters.

Starburst Fave Reds are pretty darn tasty too!

Starbursts overall....suck. Too many bad flavors. All you really want is RED, but you have to get through a shit load of ORANGE and LEMON before that happens. And these are candies that you eat individually, so there is no mixing going on....

That's the only 1 that is bad, you can't be a hater over just one piece of candy.
