Would You Try French’s Mustard-Flavored Skittles?

There are plenty of crazy flavor combinations, but Mustard Skittles take things to a whole new level.

Skittles, renowned for their vibrant colors and fruity flavors, have always been a beloved treat for people of all ages. However, the introduction of mustard-flavored Skittles seems like a bold twist.

On July 25th, French’s Mustard and Skittles announced their collaboration for these two incredible summer treats.

The idea of combining the sweet and fruity essence of Skittles with the tangy taste of mustard may seem unconventional, but these may just surprise you.

“Skittles is always looking to inspire moments of everyday happiness and deliver unexpected ways for fans to experience the brand,” wrote Mars marketing director Ro Cheng in a press release. “That’s why we’ve teamed up with French’s to create the first-of-its-kind Skittles that combines their tangy mustard flavor with our iconic chewy texture to deliver this unique summer treat for National Mustard Day.”

Saturday, August 5th, marks National Mustard Day.

Traditionally, this day has been dominated by various mustard-based treats, but this year, this daring collaboration between French's and Skittles is set to turn the tables. In the past few years, we have seen crazy combinations ranging from mustard-flavored hot dog buns to even mustard-flavored donuts and ice cream.

This year’s combination is like no other. Are you willing to try it? I would (maybe just to say I did). You certainly can't knock it until you try it, right?

These limited-edition bags will only be available with French’s “mustard mobile” where customers can visit any of three locations to snag their very own free fun-sized packs along with limited-edition Mustard-Flavored Skittles swag.

The unique combo will be available at pop-up events in select cities. You can also sign up for the online sweepstakes to win your own bag here.  The company will be posting on a map, so adventurous Skittle lovers can follow along to any of these locations:

As we celebrate National Mustard Day, we can savor the classic taste of mustard and appreciate this striking fusion of flavors. Whether you're a mustard enthusiast or a candy connoisseur, Mustard-Flavored Skittles is an experience worth trying... I think?
