00:00 Hey, have you ever wondered if all Skittles taste the same?
00:05 Well brace yourself because I'm about to reveal a secret!
00:08 Some food scientists say they do.
00:10 I know, it's mind-blowing.
00:12 We all think the red ones are strawberry and the green ones are lime, or maybe green apple,
00:18 right?
00:19 Even though they may taste the same, each color actually has a different scent.
00:23 And since our sense of smell is linked to our sense of taste, that's what gives them
00:28 their unique flavor.
00:30 If you're still not convinced, try plugging your nose and doing a blind taste test.
00:34 You might be surprised how hard it is to tell them apart.
00:38 But once you unplug your nose, you'll notice the differences more easily.
00:42 And please, do not plug your nose with the Skittles themselves.
00:46 Use your thumb and forefinger instead.
00:48 Did I really have to say that?
