With skittles, theres always a flavour you like the most.
I love the red ones, cant stand the orange ones, and most people don’t like the purple
ones.
But this mindblowing fact about skittles, will make you question everything you know.
What is good this is inform overload where we overload you with information.
I’m charlotte and don’t forget to like and subscribe for all your trending news here
on youtube.
Before I get into this video, tell me what your favourite color skittle is.
Alright, so, according to an article on National public radio.org, all skittles taste exactly
the same, regardless of their color.
Let that sink in for just a second.
I know.
I don’t believe it either.
If this is true, that measn you’re not actually tasting the rainbow.
You taste a generic fruity flavour that is all made with the same recipe that’s a combination
of orange, lemon, lime, grape and strawberry.
So Theres this neuropsychologist, his name is don katz, he specializes in taste.
He said that Rather than make skittles all different flavors corresponding to their color,
Skittles figured out that its cheaper to make things smell and look different than it is
to make them actually taste different.
Its actually the color of the skittle that makes our brain interpret taste differently.
We will associate yellow with lemon, green with apple, red with cherry or strawberry,
and purple with grape and so forth.
When you are presented with different coloured candy or soda or whatever, your brain fills
in the blanks.
This is also backed up by the Wrigley website, the company that makes skittles.
It says that the original flavour, was launched in 1979.
Yes, skittles have different fragranes and colors, but they all taste exactly the same.
I honestly don’t believe this.
So I bought some skittles to try this out for myself.
SKITTLES TEST So
because the smell will make
me interpret the taste differently, I’m going to plug my nose.
So is this true about all candies?
Well apparently no.
Higher end giummy bears do have specific flavors.
But many candy companies do this.
They trick us into thinking you’re eating different flavoured candies.
Im going to change the subject and respond to some comments.
