Red Skittles typically contain sugar, corn syrup, hydrogenated palm kernel oil, and various flavorings and colorings. The specific red color is usually derived from artificial colorants, such as Red 40. Additionally, they may contain citric acid and other ingredients for flavor and texture. Always check the packaging for the most accurate and detailed ingredient information.
