    RAINBOW Nerds are not so RAINBOW anymore...

    Ok... I’m a lifelong Nerds lover. It’s been one of my favorite candies since I was little. Back in the 80’s and 90’s, RAINBOW Nerds didn’t exist yet, only the double sided boxes with the 2 different flavors on each side. So you can imagine my excitement when I bought my 1st box of RAINBOW Nerds. I pour them into a solo cup and fish out the really big nerds first, then eat the rest over a couple weeks. Lol. From then on I never bought a double sided box again. Why settle for 2 flavors when you can have all the colors in the rainbow in 1 box? It was Nerd Heaven for me. Well that all changed along with the new packaging design on the boxes that are now stocked on store shelves. After buying my very first box with the new design and poured it out into a cup, I immediately noticed the color difference. It paled in comparison to my last box I had just finished. What used to contain the bright colors of the rainbow, now resembles a thunderstorm. RAINBOW Nerds are no longer Rainbow. Last I checked there were 7 colors in the rainbow. It’s false advertisement. The color missing that’s most noticeable is the red cherry nerds which had been my favorite. Hello? You leave out the first color that sits on the very top of every rainbow I’ve ever seen? Why? What genius made that decision? What’s the purpose? The first thing every child learns is the colors of the rainbow. Either change the packaging and the name from RAINBOW Nerds to something else or change them back to how they were before, when it actually contained all the colors of the rainbow. Some boxes I’ve had even had white nerds in em. I don’t even desire them anymore. Just looking at them turns me off completely And for a lifer, that’s pretty tragic.
