Instead of “tasting the rainbow,” fans will be able to find out what mustard-flavored candy tastes like.

Every summer, French’s introduces a limited-edition product in celebration of National Mustard Day. In 2021, it was a mustard-flavored hot dog bun; last year, it was a mustard-flavored doughnut. This year, French’s has partnered with Mars to create mustard-flavored Skittles.

"Skittles is always looking to inspire moments of everyday happiness and deliver unexpected ways for fans to experience the brand," said Ro Cheng, Marketing Director at Mars. "That's why we've teamed up with French's to create the first-of-its-kind Skittles that combines their tangy mustard flavor with our iconic chewy texture to deliver this unique summer treat for National Mustard Day."

Unfortunately, the condiment-flavored candies won’t be available at your local store. Instead, you’ll have to enter your name for a chance to win, or grab a sample from the traveling “Mustard Mobile," a mustard yellow vintage bus. The bus will stop at three major cities: Atlanta; Washington, DC; and New York City.

If you stop by the Mustard Mobile when it's in your city, you'll be able to get a free fun-size pack of mustard Skittles and score some special-edition French's summer merch (while supplies last).

If you're not on the east coast, you can still get your hands on a pack of French’s Mustard Skittles by visiting McCormick.com and entering your information before August 5. The lucky winners will also get a cute keychain and branded stickers!
