Something to consider....motives?:

The White Rabbit (possibly a Fuzzy Bunny) is a fictional character in Lewis Carroll's book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. He appears at the very beginning of the book, in chapter one, wearing a waistcoat, and muttering "Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be too late!" Alice follows him down the rabbit hole into Wonderland....don’t be too late getting into Gcan before it travels to Wonerland and beyond....”Oh dear! Oh dear....better get more shares before all the days turn green...reverse psychology to grab more shares? Maybe...maybe not!


Regarding the Candy Skittles:
Slight changes in ingredients can change product acceptability with almost imperceptible changes in the product. An example is the candy, Skittles. Prior to 2009, Skittles, was on the unacceptable list for vegetarians and vegans. The candies are mostly sugar, with a little oil and filler. Color and flavoring are added. Prior to 2009, gelatin, a protein that is processed from the cartilage of animals was used as a binder. Two insect products were also used. Carmine is a red dye used to create the red Skittles. Carmine is harvested from the cochineal scale insect. Shellac is a wax secreted by the lac insect, Kerria lacca. Food grade shellac is often used as a coating to seal the food and prevent transfer of the color dyes from the candy to the skin.
Since 2009, Skittles have been produced without the gelatin and the shellac. Red 40 substitutes for carmine as the red dye. These changes remove the primary reasons that make the candies unacceptable to vegetarians and vegans. The majority who have no cultural bias against consuming these ingredients do not notice much difference in the product.

What if another change is requested of the Skittles brand and a new ingredient is needed to make Skittles accepted again by the masses? Well, like Skittles has done in the past, a new ingredient will be substituted to to regain its “in favor position”...what if that change makes the red Skittles GREEN??? Gcan and will! Time to go down the rabbit hole to wonderland!
