Freeze-dried Skittles. You can thank me later.  -Rob I predict that there will be many suggestions and statements about the law made here, and some of them will be spectacularly wrong. - jhe888 A=A | ||

I may have to try that, but is it really considered freeze-dried? If they have a layer of ice on them, they're not technically dried, more like frozen. | |||

^Ah, then the title is correct. That must be sugar, not ice. I stand corrected. | |||

Yeah, that's the (now dehydrated) filling spilling out from inside. | |||

Kinda funny but they are all the same flavor. They are colored and given the scent of a certain flavor to fool your senses but they actually all taste the same. | |||

Fair warning: they're addictive. If you just roll them around on your tongue, the internals will melt away like cotton candy, only quite a bit slower - but not as tangy as the normally-hydrated version - leaving the thin halves of the candy outer shell. Or, you can just crunch on them and get more of a normal skittle flavor, but still a really different texture. When I was searching for them in bulk (I've only found small bags from a candy vendor at a couple of recent holiday shows), I also ran across instructions for making them yourself. Pretty sure I can cover the cost of a freeze-dryer if I make enough.  -Rob I predict that there will be many suggestions and statements about the law made here, and some of them will be spectacularly wrong. - jhe888 A=A | |||

Similar in size and shape to M&Ms, but fruit-flavored instead of chocolate. | |||

At 26.00 per lb. I'll buy a steak instead. Does sound intriguing though. Foster's, Australian for Bud | |||

$26/pound sounds like a lot but it probably takes 4-5 pounds of skittles to make 1 pound of the freeze dried product. May have to try it. Build a man a fire and keep him warm for a night, set a man on fire and keep him warm the rest of his life. | |||

For a real treat, try the freeze dried Haribo Sugar Free Gummi Bears. ____________________ | |||

These weigh nothing. A pound of freeze dried skittles probably lasts you a year! I ordered 8 ounces and was quite happy for a while  | |||

Serenity now! |
We love them! A little bit of heaven in every piece. Ladies and gentlemen, take my advice - pull down your pants and slide on the ice. ʘ ͜ʖ ʘ | |||
