As a dietary expert with a focus on veganism, I can provide you with information regarding the vegan-friendliness of Skittles. Skittles, produced by the Wrigley Company, a division of Mars, Inc., are generally considered vegan. The primary ingredients in Skittles are sugar, dextrose, modified cornstarch, and various fruit juices for flavoring, none of which inherently contain animal-derived ingredients. However, it's important to note that the production process may not always be vegan, as there can be cross-contamination with non-vegan products during manufacturing. Additionally, some people may be concerned about the use of certain additives or dyes that are derived from non-vegan sources.
To be certain, it's always best to check the packaging for any allergen warnings or to contact the manufacturer directly for their vegan policy. As of my last update, Skittles were widely considered vegan, but it's always good to verify with the most current information.
