Original Skittles all the way. If they feel like they're going downhill I'll keep them afloat soully on their geletin-free product here in the UK biggrin.gif. *so not gloating*

Wow, can't say I've heard of chocolate skittles before. I don't like any skittles in general though, so I doubt I'll be buying those. tongue.gif

When did they discontinue them where you two are? I really hope they don't stop doing them here too, they're my favorite type, they're like mini and cheap Ferrero Rocher.

Yeah they did. But I live in North Carolina, so we don't ever get anything good here for long.

Ergh sad.gif. How rubbish. On the plus side though, unless it's just because I've not looked hard enough, you've got the honour of chocolate skittles before I have tongue.gif.

Just curious though, do you get white maltesers? Just I remember they were meant to be limited edition over here and then came to stay.

Can't say I've ever seen them. Then again I've never heard of them either, so that may be why. XD

Next time I'm anywhere that sells a decent selection of candy I'll take a look.

Aaah perhaps maltesers are an English thing or something. I think they're part of Mars the company, do you get Mars bars or anything?

I just tried the chocolate Skittles a couple days ago.
Nothing really too fantastic, IMO.

QUOTE(Wikipedia)
Carnival Skittles (Yellow Package)

In October 2006 Limited Edition Carnival Skittles (also known as Unlimited Skittles) began circulating. It is unknown when the first production of this variety began. References to this variety have also been difficult to obtain. In 2007, flavours of Carnival Skittles were made available in regular packs of Skittles (Green Slushy in Original Fruit packs, Candy Apple in Wild Berry packs, Cotton Candy in Smoothie Mix packs, and Bubble Gum in Tropical packs) to help coincide with the Text Thru Time promotion.

* Cotton Candy (baby blue)
* Bubble Gum (pink)
* Candy Apple (light yellow)
* Licorice (red)
* Green Slushy (green)

In 2007 these Skittles were re-released as 'Skittles Unlimited' for a limited time in Canada and are sold in black packages.

This variety of Skittles contains very sweet and accurate flavors causing some to liken them to Jelly Belly flavors.

In June 2007 Carnival Skittles became available in Australia, known as Showtime flavours. The flavours are

* Popcorn (light yellow)
* Jam Donut (brown red)
* Toffee Apple (green)
* Fairy Floss (pink)
* Bubblegum (baby blue)

Seems to be an aussie exclusive flavor. tongue.gif

Chocolate skittles, eh? Yeah, doesn't sound too great to me, really. I imagine they're gonna put a fruit flavored coating on it so it'll kind of taste like chocolate covered fruits or whatever.

I prefer the original or the wild berry myself although I haven't had any skittle in ages.

Ummm no they don't taste anything like fruit.
They're just like Jelly Belly jelly beans, really.
