Skittles New Flavor Mimics A Condiment And Is Not A Prank

The Skittles website says it loud and clear “There’s nothing bland at our stand”. Well, there sure isn’t anything bland about Skittles New Flavor that mimics a nostalgic summertime condiment.

Do hot dogs and Skittles mix? We’re not really sure.

The Story of Skittles

The Skittles website has an elaborate background story. “208 million years ago, from the ocean below, a colorful force with the strength of a thousand rainbows pierced the surface, cracked Pangea’s supercontinent, and altered the atmospheric levels of fruity juiciness on planet Earth forever.”

With different ways to taste the rainbow, their website currently gives you the opportunity to mix your own summer flavor. Who knows? Maybe that’s where this idea came from.

Maybe someone fresh from a backyard barbecue decided to mix it up and have the Skittles website create flavors based on what they had to eat that day.

Whatever the case may be, this is not a joke. No one is being punk’d.

The new Skittles flavor is…wait for it… MUSTARD.

The New Skittles Flavor

French’s and Skittles have collaborated on this unexpected product.

“You’re seeing things right. Because you asked, French’s Mustard Skittles are now here,” Skittles also wrote on their Facebook page.

Skittles ended the post with, “They taste great. Trust me.”

Strange, to say the least. But I’d try it. Would you?

Apparently Mustard Day is celebrated on Saturday, Aug. 5, which is when Skittles new flavor will debut for a limited time.

7 Best Candy Shops In Delaware On National Lollipop Day

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again.  There is literally a day for everything, and that includes National Lollipop Day on July 20. I want to share a list of the 7 Best Candy Shops In Delaware On National Lollipop Day in honor of this sweet celebration.

Whether you’re a fan of blow pops, Dum Dums, sour candy, chocolate candy or even Tootsie pops,  these 7 Candy Shops, in a list put together by BestThingsDE.com, have it all, for every type of sweet tooth.  You may not even like lollipops, but that would be weird.  Haha.  I still remember the days of getting lollipops at the bank with my grandmother.

According to NationalDayCalendar.com, no one is sure how old the lollipop is. During prehistoric times, a form of lollipop may have preserved nuts and berries in honey. As sugar became plentiful, lollipops appeared much later in 16th century Europe.

The popular candy has made it’s way onto the big screen as well.  We all probably remember little curly haired Shirley Temple singing “The Good Ship Lollipop.”  And who could forget The Lollipop Guild from “The Wizard of Oz?”

With all this candy talk, I’m getting hungry.  So without further ado, here are 7 Best Candy Shops In Delaware On National Lollipop Day
