skittles confused?

so has anyone tried this new pack. i think its genius how every color in the pack is a different taste and there not all just the same, really makes me worry what im eating since i hate lemon flavor.

edit: scarp that, turns out the flavors are the same in every pack

Ah

"These are just bog-standard Skittles with the colours mismatched to the flavours. 'The green tastes like orange, the yellow like red, confused?' All the answers are on the base of the pouch. I suppose if you are 6 years old you will love this sort of thing but I think it's a lame way of producing a 'new' product."

And the photo comes courtesy of "Stu", who largely agrees that: "Although the idea of swapping the flavours and colours around is a reasonably sound one (and reminds me of an experiment we did at school with various fruit-flavoured jellies which were the 'wrong' colour), if you tend to just shovel Skittles into your mouth without looking - as I do - then the effect is lost."

Maybe I won't be trying them then.

OP made out that every skittle had a different taste which would be amazing. Now I come to think of it, that would be pretty hard to do.

This is truth!

Sounds a bit like revels, pointless as you can tell from the shape in the first place! I remember eating far too many skittles once and my mouth felt like it was burning.
