Cons
Con Replaced lime (in original Skittles) with green apple
One of the best things about the original Skittles was that all of the flavors worked together. Eating a random handful at once was never a problem as all the flavors could combine with versatility. Now that effortless combination of flavors does not work as green apple has been thrown into the mix replacing the original lime, now creating an odd amalgamation of flavor that just does not work as one.
Con May cause diarrhea
Red Bull, like most energy drinks may cause diarrhea.
