A little overrated. There's nothing very interesting to the taste, but somehow you find yourself finishing off an entire bag by yourself watching TV, reading a magazine, or whatever, oblivious to the taste. They're too small to be savored, too. However, the new mint Skittles varieties taste better than the fruit flavors, to me. The downside to Skittles is although they contain little fat, they're loaded with sugar and not much else in the way of vitamins. If overheated, the dye starts coming off and really stains. Go on, try it! Put a few Skittles in your palm and close your fingers around it for a minute or two, then try to get the stain off without soap. Stay away from the Sour Skittles - I was eating some, and the acid in them literally burned off a piece of my gum so my mouth bled and the roof of my mouth was all scraped up, too, from the granular sugar coating them.

Great, addicting, chewy, fruity, tasty, gob of gustatory fun. Hard on the outside but soft to chew as it transforms from the hard shell into the slightly crunchy (at first from the shells) taffy-like mouth watering gob of pure candy: Skittles are good and Skittles are FUN!. Try the sour ones for an extra zing.

I love Skittles and their delicious fruity taste! Besides, they have no fat and cholesterol, unlike most chocolate candies which makes them a little better then most other candies!

I love these things, and I used to cram my mouth with as many as would fit in there. This was our favorite thing to sneak into a movie theatre too.

Skittles are simply too sweet for me. Children love them, because of all of the sugar that the skittles maufacturers put into this candy, but I would prefer Reese's Pieces or M&M's any day.
BIGBABY 05/03/2003
Every time I eat these, I get a weird feeling in my teeth. They taste good though.
Redoedo 05/03/2003
Skittles are merely an OK candy in my book. My beef with them is that they are simply too SWEET. They always leave a bad taste in my mouth after I eat them. Skittles are far from being the best.

Awful! Maybe the worst candy of all time.

A cavalcade of delightful tastes swirling through your mouth. So many choices regular, tropical, etc. Combine two flavors to get a sensation of your own design, or eat many of the same color to get a fruity blast.( not the kind medgarevers gives)

I can only have a few Skittles at a time..forget about eating a whole bag..I simply couldn't do it. I can hold my sugar..but Skittles are just too much. The deceiving hard outer shell holds a soft chewy fruit center..but if I want a fruit chew, I would prefer a starburst.

I've been on a Skittles kick lately. I like Skittles because the flavors are intense and very sweet and they are low in fat. I can eat a few Skittles and feel completely satisfied, while other candies (e.g. peanut M&Ms) cause me to lose complete control. Skittles aren't as sticky and difficult to chew as Starbursts, and I like their small size and hard outer coating which doesn't melt in your hand. All of the "flavors" are good, but I especially like tropical Skittles. In fact, I can't think of a single way to improve this delicious candy.

I certainly don't taste a rainbow when I eat these things. I mean, they're not the worst candy out there but they are far from the best. They are just too sweet and they leave a funny taste in your mouth afterward. If I eat too many of these, I start to feel sick.
callmetootie 04/06/2001
Skittles have kind of aged over the years, but they are still a great candy to enjoy eating. I could eat an entire bag of skittles without any problems, but Skittles have a dye in them that can actually stain skin. I'm not kidding, in fact you have to wash your hands after eating these.

Skittles hardly taste like fruit. They taste like something, and it's not bad, but I can't really tell what it is. All the flavors pretty much taste the same, with minute differences. And they're somewhat powdery, like Pixie Stix. They're not bad, but not great either. I'd rather spend my money on something else.

I have always loved Skittles because they are so fruity. When I go somewhere I have always wanted Skittles. I really like the red and green ones the best. I have always had a sweet tooth for them. I eat so many Skittles I get cavities.
cosmoist 12/15/2000
Skittles are great because you get so many for such a low price. They are a good pick me up. They help me concentrate. They are easy to transport. They are not messy.
q0182 12/15/2000
Skittles rock. I love how they are chewy but not tangy like Shock Tarts. Skittles are one of my favorite candies just cause they're plain. Also I like how they come in tropical flavors. I probably like Skittles cause they advertise a lot.
tmasuda 12/14/2000
I eat these every night after my dinner because it tastes very fruity. I can make my mouth very fresh and feel comfortabe, even if I eat very oily food. Also, it is very cheap compared to the amount you get. Also, the color is very cute. I like the blue packaged ones especially!!
Flano 12/14/2000
Nice but u feel like s**t afterwards.
soccerman 12/14/2000
Skittles are a great candy. They have many different flavors, which you can distinguish between the different colors. All the flavors are intense, especially the red color. They are really easy and fun to eat and the bag they come in are attractive.
phatti18 12/13/2000
I like Skittles, it's like eating popcorn kind of, because you have so many of them. It tastes good, but gets boring after awhile, and then doesn't taste as good. What sucks is when you are on your last Skittle... that's when you want more.
polle 12/13/2000
It's the only candy in America that is eatable. The rest taste so bad, I don't even know know why you call it candy!
tjohnson 12/13/2000
Skittles is a great candy. This candy has so many different flavors. There are different types of skittles. The fruit is great. It also works as a breathsaver. Skittles also has great commercials.
jqweezy 11/24/2000
Skittles are great. Tastes great and the advertisements for it are very catchy. It's chewy and fruity which has a burst of flavor. The new sour skittles are excellent which aren't too sour, but perfectly hits the "G" spot of your mouth.
ncomposanto 11/22/2000
Skittles are great. "Tasting the Rainbow" speaks for itself. The variety makes every bite worth it. 50 cents for a pack, and the amount given also plays a factor. You could eat one by one or a handful, and it will still taste as great. New Skittles evolved from different packages, variety to a whole new look and taste (the sour Skittles). Two of the best of both worlds. A sweet, mouth-watering taste.
mofo 11/17/2000
Skittles are one of the best candies there are. All of the flavors are great. They are even the perfect size. Cool commercials too.
jdunivan 11/17/2000
I like Skittles because of the flavor it has. It is chewy. I can suck it but it doesn't last long. I like to chew the flavor out of it. I also like new Skittles too.
Jomol6 11/16/2000
Skittles are good if you don't want chocolate. They are pretty sugary. They don't taste that much like fruit, but maybe that is a good thing. If you need something lighter than chocolate, this is a good idea. The main problem is, if you are not careful, you can spill them. They come in many flavors, but the original is the only one worth it.
ladybug77 10/20/2000
The red ones are the best!
Spiralingmarce 07/28/2000
These things make me sick.
Munson 06/29/2000
Recently, I have become a huge fan Skittles. They kinda look like M&Ms, but instead of chocolate they come in cherry, grape, etc. which makes for a fruit-flavored fiesta for the mouth.
magellan 06/28/2000
A nice fruity alternative to many of the heavier candies.
alicat 06/28/2000
Skittles makes me think of when I was a kid. It is what I used to pick when I got a treat. I don't understand why Skittles had to get all crazy and do other flavors. Original is the best.
PoorOldEdgarDe rby 06/26/2000
To granular in the mouth and too sweet it's like eating a colored sugar cube. mmmhhhhh nassssstttyyy.
Wiggum 06/26/2000
Skittles may be my favorite candy right now - especially if you inlclude the "Tropical Fruit" Skittles - the one that has the banana flavor. Skittles are better than Starburst because they don't get stuck in the crevasses of your teeth the way Starburst do. Word on the street (I have a large network of paid informants) is that a new kind of "Sour" Skittles are about to come out, and I'm looking forward to trying those.
