Big Skittle Lies

from We Have Concerns Hosted by Jeff Cannata/Anthony Carboni

Do gummy bears really come in different flavors, or do we just think they taste different because they are different colors? While closing your eyes, your accuracy in differentiating flavors majorly declines. This phenomenon is something that scientists are studying- and something big candy companies have counted on for years. Jeff and Anthony investigate to see just how deep the gummy worm hole really goes. GET BONUS EPISODES, VIDEO HANGOUTS AND MORE.
