Skittles Releasing Limited Edition Mustard Flavored Candy

Ready or not, here comes the latest not-so-ordinary candy flavor.  Skittles has teamed with French's to create its first-ever mustard-flavored candy, but it will be available for a limited time only.

Announcement of the new Skittles flavor comes just days from National Mustard Day, which is August 5.  The mustard-flavored SKITTLES are described as having a tangy mustard flavor along with the iconic chewy mixture.

"With the yellow holiday landing on August 5, we knew we had to outdo ourselves.  We are thrilled to collaborate with SKITTLES to deliver our beloved Classic Yellow Mustard in a new and fun way to French's and SKITTLES fans alike." said McCormick & Company Marketing Vice President, Valda Coryat.

French's will have a bright yellow vintage bus, called the Mustard Mobile, hitting the road next week in journeys through Atlanta, Washington D.C. and New York City to promote the mustard-flavored candy.

Monday, the Mustard Mobile will be at the Ponce City Market in Atlanta from 11 am until 3 pm.

If you're curious, you have a chance to win free packets of mustard Skittles up until August 5, by visiting Frenchs.com/MustardSkittles.

"From Mustard Ice Cream to last year's viral Mustard Donuts, this year marks the fifth time French's has gone all out with unique, flavorful innovations to celebrate National Mustard Day, " said Coryat.
