Contaminated Skittles Probed After Two Hospitalized


This was a while back, and people still eat them.

http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/national-international/tainted-skittles-indiana-248740611.html


Two people who ate from a package of contaminated Skittles required hospital treatment for burning throats, cramping and diarrhea, Indiana authorities said Wednesday night.

The Indiana State Department of Health said in a news release that preliminary tests showed that packages of Skittles sold at a Marathon Food Mart in Richmond had some kind of chemical substances, though what exactly those substances were has yet to be confirmed.

Although with Halloween around the corner, trotting out the "poisoned candy" notion is not the best idea.
