What's the conspiracy against lime?

[anarky]

Seriously.

When I was a kid, if you had a candy that had several flavors in a pack (Life Savers, SweetTarts, etc), the green was always lime, yummiest of all fruit flavors.

Now, the green that was lime is either sour apple or watermelon, the two most unspeakably foul of all fruit flavors.

What's more, Life Savers got rid of lemon, too, replacing it with raspberry. Not as bad a loss, but the greens are still inedible. And they still have "pineapple," which tastes as little like pineapple as it ever has.

What the fuck? Are these candy company executives smoking some sort of incredibly potent crack that makes them think people like fucking sour apple and watermelon candy?

Yeah, that's bullshit. Lemon and Lime are the best...jelly beans, skittles, doesn't matter. I think Starburst has always ignored Lime. Bastards.

[kidhuman]

Sour Apple rocks, fuck Lime.

Niether of these flavors has anywhere close to the popularity of GRAPE, am I right Perpantor? I think the world might be a better place if we only had grape skittles and lifesavers. And all those heathens in third world countries would just die of famine.

I tend to prefer green over pretty much all the other colours, regardless of which flavour they've got attached to it. Weird.

That's funny. I tend to be the same way!

I think lime was phased out by lemon because they taste the same and lemon gave better head to the exec in charge of making the final decision.

Ach! There might as well nae be another flavor asides the delicious emerald juiciness of lime. Except maybe a fine potato flavored skittle. Or a Guiness flavored one. Wouldna tha be summat? Blimey!
