WTH? When did the green [original] Skittles change from Lime to Green Apple?

[NFS4]

Since when did lime get the boot from the original skittles packages? My parents came to visit and they dropped off about a dozen "mini" bags of skittles that were leftover from Halloween. I started chowing down and I had this exact reaction when I bit into it:

I am so hoping your parents just got a bad batch because this would be a travesty. I always save the greens for last and the purples always go first.

 

[Blackjack200]

No, this is a thing now. Lime is gone, apple is in. Everyone hates it.

 

[ThinClient]

Fuck lime. All hail green apple. Best fruit flavor in the world.

 

[Insomniator]

Been this way for a while... I like green apple way better. Screw lime.

You're the type to prefer waffles over pancakes. You're lucky society is a lot more tolerant now.

Wait, they changed the skittles ... I never liked the green lime ones ....

Waffles are more interesting than pancakes. They have ridges and valleys and holes to store peanut butter and syrup and butter and stuff.

They are usually crispier. Pancakes are lazy and apathetic. Unless you destroy the pancake, butter just slides off instead of melting, blah blah blah.

Waffles are for more refined breakfastiers while pancakes are for kids and folks who can count to potato.

Pancakes are light, fluffy discs on loan from the gods. Waffles are dense, hateful thugs that absorb syrup and toppings and weigh 2698372 tons each when syrup-laden.

Unfortunately, true

Sour Skittles > Skittles

only problem, I ate an uber sized bag which is like 5oz (minus the strawberry I hate them) while I was playing Saints Row IV, and my mouth was almost bleeding by the time I finished. It hurt to chew the last 1/8th of the bag. Which is sort of scary lol.

I'm on the side waffles, But Black gives a persuasive argument.

I like both.
You are doing it wrong if the waffle is heavy and dense...they should be nice and fairly light for a waffle. At least when my wife makes them they are and I prefer homemade jam on them instead of syrup.

It's not so much that the apple flavored Skittles are bad, it's just that they don't compliment the other flavors as well IMHO.

I am unimpressed with your concessions to the righteous pancake. When the apocolypse is upon us you will be counted with the waffle heathens.

I love pancakes, but if your waffles are like that, then you are doing it wrong. I make the lightest, fluffiest Belgians in town.

Apple flavor is so ghetto.

 

[slayer202]

I found this out last week on halloween. Such terrible news. I'll never eat skittles again

 

[BurnItDwn]

All this talk of waffles and pancakes.

Crepes are where it's at!
