For what it's worth, blue raspberry as a flavour exists because companies decided keeping the raspberry flavour red would be too confusing (as it is associated with strawberry and cherry, already). So, to create a solution to this, they dyed the raspberry flavour blue to set it apart. :) Just a little bit of trivia!

Can I add to the raspberry trivia and have everyone google where does raspberry flavor come from? Happy google-ing!

10:33 Personally I love the chewies skittles, I find that without a shell there's basically no sugary grittiness in the mouth. And the pastel colours seem a bit more natural than the brightly coloured originals. There was also a limited blue skittle in regular bags that was cherry-cola flavoured. Also a bag of confused skittles, where the colours and flavours didn't match. Think there's others, but I don't remember them.

For me, Food Wars is always Harry and Joe! Don't get me wrong, the others all great too but despite the video's are filmed separately and put together, Harry and Joe still have more chemistry.

Your Skittles counting segment, my great nan once (my memory is awful so forgive murky details) bought a back of either Fruit Pastels, or red and black fruit pastels and counted them all individually, but then was so bothered by the inconsistent number that she wrote to the company complaining about how the colours were so uneven in number. They actually responded and apologised to her, and i believe they sent my nan a free bag of fruit pastels as compensation, so hey, counting your sweets can be good!

As someone who eats Skittles way too much, I really this appreciate this episode! Also my condolences to Joe for having to drink that skittle water.. big yikes

“From calorie count to portion sizes” What a classic

Would love to see a behind the scenes video of food wars one day, going in the stores/restaurants buying the food and walking out with the entire menu Even the left over food and drink I’m guessing it gets shared out amongst the production team Love every episode guys never stop making them ❤

As someone with a truly bizzare lime allergy (not citrus, just lime), I'm always extremely happy to discover that a green sweet is apple and not lime. So at least I know not to eat skittles in the US since they went back to their green ones being lime. I cant blame them, lime tastes amazing...I'm just sadly very allergic to it. I'm very jealous, I LOVE the taste of lime. The few times I've accidentally ingested it I've been like "oh hey that's nice" and then become very unwell!

I remember when skittles in the UK did mints years ago, one pack was peppermint and the other spearmint. They were okay but they were just like smaller versions of the soft chewy mints you could already get. Idk why they had different colours because the entire packs would just taste of the same kind of mint because it was.

Similar with Skittles Gum, you can weirdly still find this on shop shelves in the UK despite it never sells well and its rare to see a almost empty shelf of the stuff but it is sold here.

It was fun seeing them doing try guessing flavors without their sense of smell. I have sinuses so I should be used to it but i still don’t think I’ll be able to identify the flavor 😂

14:56 Someone needs to remix this part into a weirdcore/dreamcore/nostalgiacore liminal experience

Joe did a great job pouring the skittles in the cups

I remember working in retail once and a customer came through the till saying that she was making a rainbow skittle cake for her daughter. Luckily I was paying attention as I noticed she's picked up the pride skittles instead, her face when I mentioned it was so funny. We swapped them out but she kept one white pack as her daughter was LGBTQ+ and she used them to Line the cake board and decorate cupcakes, which looked great when she showed me a fortnight later!

We actually do have the wild berry and tropical mix here in UK but it's super rare. Probably rarer than meta moon prime.

The white skittles are my favourite skittles, but I do also love skittles chewies because they’re just easier to chew and last in the mouth for longer meaning that one pack can last more than two hours lol

That mr brightside section alone is deserving of a biiiig thumbs up

I want an episode of Booze Wars! Where Harry and Joe Review Local Drinks!

One day, I would love it if Skittles made the flavours from opposing sides of the pond available on either side of the pond. I would love to taste all the flavours 🥰🫶🏽🥰🫶🏽🥰🫶🏽

Fun Fact: I have searched England and found Brightside in Brighton!Makes sense.Tastes..Wait I forgot.Please don’t say I have to go to Brighton again.

@10:25 Love those skittles soft chew. So tasty and very cloudy and cute

I ate skittles so much as a kid that I honestly could correctly guess every flavor of skittle in a whole bag

The important difference in the sours is that the UK one doesn't come dusted in the sour powder, unfortunately.

I almost didn't watch this.. but I AM SO GLAD I DID. I am a former sommelier; I lost my smell and taste in Dec 2021 due to covid. I'll be adding skittles to my testing

He was right to say Cherries aren't berries, since they're stone fruits. Neither apples or blackberries are berries, botanically speaking. Apples are Pome's and Blackberries are aggregate fruits. Blueberries Are berries! Raspberries are aggregate fruits. Strawberries are aggregate fruits, also, though Kiwi's Are Berries. Fun facts! :) As for American skittles we already covered most of that, though Melonberry is an interesting case. If it is the Melonberry I've heard of, that's an aggregate fruit as well. Though Melons themselves are berries.

I'm from the UK but the USA sour skittles are so much better (must be those extra chemicals!). The UK ones are barely sour at all. I love the chewies without shells the most though.

Wait the Uk sells 1KG bags?

@DarkCobra88

Most supermarkets have them. But as Harry said, if you go online, you can get the 1.6kg pretty easily too. For 1KG bags, Tesco sell them, Asda usually do (1 i went to didn't), and Morrisons do too. Most shops like Home bargains have them as well.

UK sour skittles are nothing compared to the US ones. I had the US sour ones about 20 years ago when I went to florid, they are insanely sour. Also shame you didn't feature the skittles milk drink or the spicy skittles you could get a few years ago they were horrible. Also wasn't that long ago you could get the yellow ones over here in the UK they were fruit and yoghurt flavours.
