Skittles has served up rainbow-colored candy since 1979. For decades, the packs of Original Skittles boasted a quintet of can’t-miss fruit flavors: orange, lemon, lime, grape and strawberry.
Suddenly, in 2013, that original cast changed. The classic lime Skittle was moved from the Original pack to the new Darkside Skittles variety, which featured tropical-tinged fruits like pomegranate, dark berry and blood orange. (Its name was also changed to “Midnight Lime.”)
In 2017, Skittles brought back lime for—gasp—a limited time. The lime Skittles were happily reunited with other classic flavors in the Original Skittles package. However, they came and went so fast, it feels like they were never really here. Now, Skittles has heard fans’ pleas, and they’ve gone above and beyond to respond!
