Anybody can taste the rainbow, but what about shooting the rainbow?
By dissolving packages of Skittles into bottles of vodka, you too can make your very own Skittles flavored vodka.
Though some of the flavors overpowered the vodka and ended up tasting a bit too much like cough syrup, the maker of this colored concoction actually said that some of the flavors tasted pretty close to their original Skittle flavor, meaning it might be worth giving this process a shot (pun intended) if you’re into that sort of thing.

Doritos has released a mystery flavor that it calls simply “Quest”, and if you can guess the name of this mystery flavor, you may soon find yourself $100,000 richer.
By logging on to SnackStrongProductions.com, you can begin your quest by guessing the name of the mystery flavor. Once you solve that first mystery, you’ll unlock “the untold mysteries” where “great wealth awaits the bold and adventurous”. Apparently one of “the clever, swift and keen will rise to meet the challenges and compete for the golden ARTIFACT worth $100,000”.
The games are very Myst like, and it’s actually a pretty cool idea for a chip maker, so be sure to check out The Quest and see if you can figure out what the mysteries might be.

Canouflage is probably one of the best (and funniest) ideas I’ve ever seen: Simply wrap your beer in a vinyl cover that looks like a popular soda brand, and then chug away at what appears to be a harmless 12 ouncer to the outside world.
Available “flavors” include Skunkpiss, Risk, Peski, and Mountain Spew, and they come in packs of four that are also reusable in case the thirty pack that you bought is going to need some extra hiding.

Reebok/Kool-Aid kicks aren’t exactly groundbreaking, since the shoe game is known to bring some unique partnerships together, but what is interesting is that not only do these shoes look like their respective Kool-Aid flavors, they smell like them too thanks to scented sock liners.
Run one includes cherry, strawberry and grape, and more are planned (orange, lemon and lime) if the scented shoe takes off like Reebok surely hopes it will.
What’s your flavor?

If you’ve been looking for a new way to get your soda fix, then check out Brach’s Soda Poppers.
Featuring four officially licensed flavors (A&W Root Beer, Dr. Pepper, Crush, and 7-Up) they have a hard candy outside and a “firm goo center”.
Now if only they’d find a way to fill these with caffeine…

Kettle Chips, the all-natural potato chip brand, has put five new flavors on the market, and they want you to try them all and then let Kettle know what you think. (Sounds like an easy way to sell five bags of chips to me!)
Featuring Wicket Hot Sauce, Mango Chili, Jalapeño Salsa Fresca, Orange Ginger Wasabi, and Death Valley Chipotle, they’re all part of the Fire and Spice pack, and they all sound delicious.
Which one sounds good to you?

Suck My Bic is a questionably named concept from Clement Eloy that might be just the thing you pen nibblers have been looking for. The candy caps would come in five flavors, and are definitely a step above ink on your face.

P.B.Loco is “The Adult Peanut Buttter”. With flavors like CoCoBanana, Asian Curry Spice, Sun-Dried Tomato, and Sumatra Cinnamon and Raisin, They hope to do for peanut butter what Starbucks did for coffee. PB&J will never be the same.

Absolut’s new flavor, pear, is getting the full treatment over at the Absolut website. With a few clicks of the mouse, you can get rid of your old temptations (presumably to make room for a new one, namely Absolut Pear) using a variety of methods, such as a squib, a shotgun, or a sledgehammer. Having tried the pear flavor, I can definitely vouch for its taste of temptation, though I don’t know if I would blow up my watch over it.
