[Note: This has nothing to do with my regular posts here. So, if you aren’t into hearing me rant about candy, don’t read this post. I just wanted to do a little photo essay to post for friends on Facebook, and this seemed like the best way to do so.]
As you may or may not be aware, Skittles recently decided to change the flavor of their green Skittles from lime to green apple, foisting the change on an unsuspecting and unaware public. As a regular consumer of Skittles (hey, a gal has to get her Vitamin C from somewhere), I am highly disappointed by this change. Green apple Skittles are a disgusting abomination of a formerly tasty treat. Rather than just sit around and rant about this on Facebook, as I would normally do, I decided to take my ranting to the next level. What do I mean by ‘the next level’? This photo essay should help show you what I mean.
I am definitely usually the “let it be” type. However, it turns out when you mess with one of my favorite candies, you strike the “complain and put it on the Internet” nerve.
I had bought some Halloween candy and my husband and I got a rude awakening. Did you know tints changed flavors too? What the heck is going on?? Leave candy flavors alone. I miss the tasty lime skittles very much.
that was great. makes me feel guilty for all the times I have complained and not done anything. They would be fools to not take you seriously!

I had no idea on Runts! I tend to avoid them because I have always disliked the banana flavor.

I love the banana. When I was little there were six flavors. Now its five. The lime is green apple ans there’s a blue raspberry.

Apparently I haven’t had them in longer than I thought! I don’t think I will be trying them anytime soon again.
