I've long contended that Pepsi is much better at making flavored colas than Coke. This stuff features Pepsi with a flavor that manages to taste like lime peel, and not just the fake lime flavoring that they most likely used. The lime is so subtle, however, that I'm not sure I'd be able to detect it, if you told me that it was regular Pepsi. With that said, I like how they did it here, I think it's great, and I'm so glad that they tried this in the first place.

These are Doritos with "Salt & Vinegar" and "dill pickle" chip seasoning combined into one. For me, they are way too intense... they even literally hurt my tongue after only a handful of chips. A bit much.

One of those instances where brands trying to use a very small amount of green apple flavoring, along with sugar, to approximate a "red apple" flavor, seeing as red apple flavoring in candy basically doesn't exist. These aren't the greatest, but I'm glad they tried. The flavor combination works well enough.

They actually have a pumpkin flavor along with the requisite spices! With that said, they are nothing special... in the bottom half of pumpkin spice-flavored junk food.

For some reason, I really like the idea of yogurt-dipping more types of candy. I love that they tried this, but in my opinion, the hard/chewy texture of the Skittles candies is so different from the soft yogurt that I think this was a poor choice for a yogurt variation. I'll just be sitting here what other products could have benefited from a dip instead.

My bottles haven't aged great, but to me this tastes like Coke with an added streak of fruitness. I've seen a few online sources claim mango flavoring has been added, along with a few others. Not bad. But I really just wish that Coca-Cola would dispose of these artsy names and actually tell us what to expect from the product.

There's not much to say about these. They are very tasty, but not drastically more remarkable than the original flavors. Though I do tend to think that the Starburst variations are always better than the original flavors, I never met a Starburst I didn't like.
