When they switched the Lime skittles to Green Apple, it was met with a ton of backlash, causing them to eventually change back to Lime. Apparently people thought that the Green Apple flavor did not blend well with the other flavors and overpowered them.
What these people did not realize is that Green Apple is the greatest flavor in the history of candy! Lime was always the worst flavor of Skittle, and Green Apple was the best. They need to change it back to Green Apple! At the very least, they should make it an alternate flavor. That way, everyone can be happy. Weird people can have their nasty Lime, and I can get my delicious Green Apple.

Green Apple skittles and jolly ranchers are top tier.
Worst flavor by far
Artificial green apple, watermelon, blueberry all taste like absolute shit
This post made me rage. 😂 I think green apple is the absolute worst flavor. I give my husband all the green candy in anything I eat. 😝
Green Apple is the worst thing to happen to candy.
I actually agree with this one. I loved the Green Apple Skittles!
FINALLY SOMEONE ELSE AGREES WITH ME that shit was my favorite. My second favorite was the red ones, and my dad didn’t like those two flavors, so i would fill up on green and reds, until green went back to lime and he started eating them again
Green Apple is the best artificial flavor regardless
It’s an intentionally cyclical sales tactic. It has been switching back and forth for like 20 years now
I agree! I hate lime
Thank fuck they changed it back to lime. It was devastating when they took away my lil lime guys.
Making green apple candy should be considered a war crime.
Lime is 1000x better
They should bring the lime tic tac’s back.
im a green apple hater, I love citrus. green apple just reminds me of being at the dentist as a kid, not a fan
What you telling me the green Skittles are lime now. Whenever I eat Skittles I always eat all of the other colors and save the green ones for last. And for real I think jolly ranchers and haribo green frogs are where it’s at
No, the war crimes of apple skittle will never return. Lime was the original, apple is a false god and an interloper.
I stopped getting Skittles when they went back to lime. Green apple was the best flavor, lime is the worst. Maybe compromise and make it lemon lime, since those two are so often combined. Feels odd that out of 5 flavors lemon and lime are separate
Get real… lime only or GTFO.
In Australia, the green skittles are still apple flavour!
Only if they bring Zima back too
Take my upvote. I hate everything grewn apple and love citrus flavors a whole lot. I wish there was more lime candy.
I didn’t even realize that people actually liked the lime until recently. The green apple is SO GOOD
Support this 100%. The lime are trash.
Terrible opinion, OP. Enjoy your upvote
Nope, those are 🗑️
i liked the green apple cuz with orange, lemon, AND lime, over half the flavors were citrus 🙁
It took 8 yeara yo make the switch back to lime. Its been 4 already. Gice it another 4 and they might. They’ll probably go back and forth.
They reverted to like because of nostalgia. In a few years, the kids who were raised on green apple will make a stink and They’ll go back and the cycle will continue.
Or they could go the twix route (owned by same company) and set up different camps of skittles fans, one side green apple, one side lime… separate the “factories” etc.
I hate the lime so much
This is truly an unpopular opinion. I commend you.
Lime is such a shit boring flavour.
Anyone who thinks lime beats green apple is a terribly boring miserable person
I think about this often actually. I miss them. They were way better than lime, and they fucked up.
I mean lime is fine, but I think green apple did bring something extra to the mix. lime is just too close to lemon.
I do prefer apple..
FINALLY YES YES YESSS
Didn’t even notice. But ig I haven’t had actual skittles in a while? I eat the gummies all the time & they still have green apple, no lime.
most unpopular opinion ever posted here. you win on that front
Take your upvote. I love me some green apple jolly ranchers but that’s about it. I stopped buying skittles til they brought back the lime. I’m boycotting butterfinger until they bring back the old recipe
I like both green apple and lime flavors but lime definitely goes better in the skittles mix of flavors.
Green apple is the best candy flavour in general. Having lemon, lime, and orange is too many citrus flavours.
