Skittles are colorful, chewy candies that are coated with a hard sugar shell. They come in a variety of fruit flavors, such as strawberry, orange, lemon, green apple, and grape. Each piece is small and round, making them easy to eat and share. Skittles are often sold in bags and are popular at parties, movie theaters, and as a snack. Originally introduced in the 1970s, Skittles have become a well-known brand worldwide. The slogan "Taste the Rainbow" emphasizes the vibrant colors and flavors of the candies. Skittles are produced by Mars, Incorporated, a major candy manufacturer.
