Soooo...we bought Skittles to hand out tonight. They say they're 'Zombie Skittles' and quote, "Most taste delicious but some taste like rotten zombie. Dare to try?" I was like oh that's a cute marketing ploy whatever. So I'm happily eating away because we got ZERO kids and therefore all the candy leftovers are mine by default. AND THEN I BIT INTO ONE THAT FUCKING TASTED LIKE WHAT I IMAGINE A ROTTEN ZOMBIE WOULD ACTUALLY GODDAMN TASTE LIKE AND I ALMOST FUCKING THREW UP.

So now I'm carefully biting into each one and sniffing it suspiciously and throwing the dead body ones in an old envelope to throw away later.

But seriously...WHAT THE $%# WERE YOU THINKING, SKITTLES EXECS?!?!?

Wtf. I am so sorry. x.e

That's why I never did the Bertie Bots beans.

I never did those either and now I'm glad I didn't. I honestly thought this was a joke, lol. Joke's on me I guess. XD

It's... childish in a way. I'm sorry you had to endure that though. XD

It seems like a candy you'd give someone you don't care for. If there's any risk of yuck in my candy I pass. Even if I get a mixed bag of normal jelly beans I scrutinize every bean that could be any flavor I don't like. Which apparently my favorite flavor (black licorice) has a hard line of people liking or hating it, there seems to be no middle.

I've never understood the marketing decisions behind those types of candies. Like, the jelly beans that taste like vomit or rotten egg or whatever was (iirc) a harry potter gimmick to begin with, but why'd they stick around? also, who the hell is producing these flavors??

So it's like... Beanboozled with Skittles??? That's wack

omg we got a bag to pass out for Halloween as well and decided to try them... well... I almost cried after eating it and I was terrified to eat the rest of the skittles 😂

I think it's a great idea because kids love to torture each other with weird stuff like that... at least that's how me & my friends were when I was younger lol.

I tried those before and omg, you are correct. They are so bad. I wouldn't wish them on anyone.

I GOT SOME OF THESE FROM SOMEBODY BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT THEY WERE WEIRD AND COOL. I was like.... I am absolutely terrified to even attempt this. Bernie Bots is one thing because at least it's kinda funny. This is just... idk. They've been sitting on my counter menacingly for a month.

Kids like to do that stuff lol. Kids would absolutely think that something that tasted like a corpse was hilarious. XD I've tried exactly two of the Beanboozled/Bertie Botts beans: earwax and like... pickled herring or something? and that was enough for me that I stayed far clear of anything of the sort.
