SkittlesandFrench’sare joining forces!
For the first time ever, the brands are releasing mustard-flavored Skittles in honor of National Mustard Day on Aug. 5.
The Limited Edition Skittles are described to have a “tangy mustard flavor” and “iconic chewy texture."
Those waiting to get their hands on the new candy will not be able to find them in store, however, as it will only be made available via online sweepstakes and at pop-up events as French’s ‘Mustard Mobile’ makes its way to Atlanta on July 31, Washington, D.C. on Aug. 2 and New York City on Aug. 5.

“This is absolutely disgusting, rancid, and wrong. Hey@Skittles, how can I get them,” another user asked, as someone else said, “Ngl. I really wanna try these. I’ll accept it if you wanna judge me.”
“I will 1,000 percent try these and report back,” another Skittles fan added.
