My sister is doing a report on the "Skittles" Candy, made by Mars, Inc. We can't find anything online. Please help her out........ we tried www.skittles.com but dont have flash player and it will not let us see part of the site..... She needs as much information as possible for her school report!

Wait a minute, it is summer time and she is doing a school report? Is this a trick question? LOL just kidding. Did you try a google search for "Skittles candy" or something like that? Google is really good and I use it all the time for finding info on papers I have to write. Good luck!

BTT..... I looked a lot of places and have found squat.... Thanks to Ok89, I did found out that they were imported to the US from a British company in 1974 and were started production in the US by Mars, Inc. in 1981

She picked a bad topic, how much information can there possibly be on a candy?

See if there is anything on www.mars.com (http://www.mars.com) . Hope it helps.

I did a search using the microsoft internet explorer browser and I got a lot of links!

Tell her to change her topic to explorers. Im sure you can help her write a 300 page report single spaced.
