Who doesn’t love Skittles, right? They’re colorful, fruity, and always a fun treat. But what happens when those innocent-looking candies turn out to be not-so-sweet? Mom Emily Massingill recently found out the hard way when she bought a pack of Zombie Skittles for her two children. Little did she know, this innocent purchase would lead to a month-long taste sensation that was anything but pleasant.
The Surprising World of Zombie Skittles
It all started when Emily purchased a pack of Zombie Skittles, a special edition flavor associated with Halloween. The packaging was spooky and intriguing, so she thought it would be a hit with her kids. However, she had no idea that these particular Skittles had some rather unpleasant surprises inside. Similar to the jelly beans in Harry Potter, these candies had some truly horrid flavors mixed in.
The Viral Reaction
Emily took to Facebook and shared the hilarious incident with her friends and family. Little did she know that her post would go viral overnight, with people rushing to the comments to share their own reactions and stories. Online reviewers confirmed that the Zombie Skittles tasted as bad as they sounded. Some even enjoyed the thrill of the unknown, knowing that each bite could bring them a truly disgusting flavor.
Kids’ Complaints Dismissed
At first, Emily dismissed her kids’ complaints about the Skittles’ taste, believing they were just being picky. She even threatened to withhold candy from them if they didn’t appreciate what they were given. However, she soon realized that her children were not exaggerating. They were forced to eat Skittles that tasted like dirty diapers for an entire month.
A Comical Situation
The online community couldn’t get enough of this comical situation. Many parents could relate to Emily’s plight, as they had also experienced their kids going through phases where they refused to eat things they once loved. In Emily’s defense, she had eaten Skittles from the same packet and never encountered the rotten flavor. One mom empathized with Emily, explaining that mistakes happen and it’s not her fault.
Lessons Learned
Let this story serve as a reminder to always be cautious with limited-edition candies. You never know what surprises may lurk inside. Just like Emily accidentally buying Zombie Skittles, one mom even shared the story of accidentally making penis-shaped noodles for her kids’ mac and cheese dinner. Mistakes happen, but they sure make for some unforgettable stories!
So next time you’re craving some Skittles, double-check the package. And if it says “Zombie,” maybe it’s best to proceed with caution.
