What happened to chocolate Skittles?
They are still around in limited markets from what I understand. They aren't as popular as traditional flavors so when I see them I buy at least 10 at a time to last me for some time. In fact I have 9 packages in my kitchen right now and I'm eating one of 'em. You could try contacting distribution companies that sell to grocers and see if they have them, you'll just have to buy a box of them, but they would be cheaper if they sell to you. (December 2007)
The basic ingredients in chewing gum are: gum base, softeners, sweeteners and flavorings.
The primary elastic ingredient, Chicle, a rubber-like substance produced from the chicle tree of South America.
The base, which contains ingredients such as polymers, wax and softeners, ensures the ideal structure and chewing properties. It is gum base that gives chewing gum its character.

Bacteria in your mouth convert sugar to acid. This acid erodes the enamel, eventually leading to a cavity that will need to be treated by a dentist. If left long enough, dental decay (cavity) can reach the nerve of the tooth and this will require either root canal therapy or removal of the tooth.
AnswerLike ants at a picnic, bacteria go crazy over the sugar on your teeth, breaking it down into acids that eat away tooth enamel, causing holes called cavities. Plaque also causes gingivitis (say: jin-juh-vi-tis), which is gum disease that can make your gums red, swollen, and sore. Your gums are those soft pink tissues in your mouth that hold your teeth in place.If you don't take care of your teeth, it won't be long before cavities and unhealthy gums make your mouth very, very sore. Eating meals will be difficult. And you won't feel like smiling so much.
To avoid the damage of your teeth,you have to wash your teeth with water or gargling so the candy left in your teeth will be washed out
What is the grossest candy ever?
I think one of the grossest is dare jelly beans. You don't know if the candy will be a yummy flavor like caramel, or a gross flavor like pencil shavings. You don't know what you will get because the gross ones are the same color as the good ones. For example, cotton candy is the same color as dirty diaper. You should try them if you're adventurous... but if not, STAY AWAY!
The Kit Kat candy bar was originally made by Rowntree's, a company in York, United Kingdom, in 1935. The company trademarked the names "Kit Cat" and "Kit Kat" for the bar. The bar was sold in London and Southern England, labeled as something "a man could take to work in his pack up."
It was switched to the "Kit Kat Chocolate Crisp" in 1937. However, with World War Two milk was in short supply, so Kit Kat's flavor was changed from milk chocolate to dark chocolate, and its wrapping was changed form red to blue. After the war, it was changed back to milk chocolate and was re-adorned with its familiar red.
The biggest changes for Kit Kat happened when Nestle bought Rowntree, the company that owned Kit Kat. Nestle then had worldwide control of the Kit Kat brand, not just in North America. One of the first changes Nestle made was opening new places for making and selling Kit Kat in Japan and also Malaysia, India, and China.
Nestle also changed the Kit Kat recipe from using French flour to British flour, which made production less expensive. Because of this, Kit Kat lost its "snap" that was the key in all of Kit Kats marketing in the 1970's and 80's. After that change, the wrapping was changed from foil and paper to plastic.
Additional Kit Kat flavors were then introduced. Besides the original flavor, the "Kit Kat Orange" was launched in 1996 in the United Kingdom. Following that were mint and caramel. In 1999, the "Kit Kat Chunky" was produced, and was enjoyed by costumers globally. Different flavors of Kit Kat have kept launching through the 2000's.
In 2000, Nestle broadened its market in Japan, Russia, Turkey, Venezuela, and Eastern and Central Europe. Today, the Kit Kat bar is made in twenty-one different countries through Nestle: United Kingdom, New Zealand, Egypt, Japan, Canada, Australia, Venezuela, Algeria, Untied Arab Emirates, South Africa, Germany, China, Malaysia, Turkey, Spain, Mexico, Indonesia, India, Bulgaria, Russia, and Ukraine.
The size of Kit Kat has changed along with the flavors. The original bar had four separable wafers. In the 1930's, they created a two wafer Kit Kat, which is the most popular today. The "Kit Kat Chunky" had one large wafer.
The amount of wafers depends on where you are. In Japan, the Kit Kat Petit is a half of a wafer, while there is a three wafer Kit Kat in Arabia. There are also Kit Kat family sized bars in Australia and France that contain twelve wafers.
The Kit Kat has branched out form candy bars, as well. In Ireland, North America, and the United Kingdom, Nestle makes a "Kit Kat Ice Cream," and in Malaysia there are "Kit Kat Drumsticks."
2010 brought the news that a five million production line was built by Nestle in York, United Kingdom. With the help of this line, over one billion Kit Kat bars will be made every year.
Obviously, the Kit Kat bar has been a great success. It is hard to tell, however, if it would have had the same success if Nestle had not bought Rowntree's, or if Rowntree's had not sold to Nestle. Based on Kit Kat's success, it appears it was a good thing that Nestle did buy Rowntree's and because of that Kit Kat customers get to taste their favorite candy whenever they want.

What does the candy symbolize on Easter?
Candy eggs are a link back to the actual origin of Easter, which was an ancient pagan religion. A woman named Ishtar was worshipped as a goddess and that's where the word Easter and the bunnies and eggs came from. She told people that she descended from heaven in an egg, and her son (who was worshipped as a god) liked rabbits. Also it was a fertility cult (worshipping sex) so the bunnies and eggs were also fertility symbols, since eggs are a result of chickens and roosters mating, and bunnies are known to mate a LOT. There are those who try to give these things a Christian meaning, but they have nothing to do with the resurrection of Christ. The Roman Catholic church blended some pagan beliefs and traditions into their religion around 300 AD, and for a long time Protestants did not participate in these things, but then they were gradually accepted by many Protestants, and of course today a lot of people who don't even consider themselves Christians celebrate Easter, thinking the eggs and bunnies have some kind of spiritual meaning in Christianity. Other types of candy eaten on Easter have no particular meaning, they just taste good. My own personal answer to the question would be that the candy represents the sweet word of Christ.
Does eating candy make you hungry?
please take a look at the studies done [via the internet] which explain why fructose [fruit sugar] is indeed converted to fat when in excess.[more than 3 glasses of fruit juice or 3 pieces of fruit daily ] and indeed the answer to the question 'does food make you fat?' could very well be 'yes it does, if you eat too much fruit daily and don't exercise it off!'
I wouldn't say fat, but eating too much fruit is no good. You should make sure to get all of the nutrients on the food pyramid (look up more info. on mypyramid food guidance system) i hope i answered your question! Best of luck to u.
