Subject: Product Defect<\/p>\n

To Whom it May Concern:<\/p>\n

I recently purchased a package of Skittles with the factory code 331BY3 from the vending machine at work. I was disappointed when I tossed them in the air they did not explode into fireworks as shown in a recent television commercial. Are these Skittles defective? Or do I need to be in an outdoor area to get the fireworks effect? I would appreciate any and all suggestions in how to get my Skittles to function properly.<\/p>\n

Thank You,<\/p>\n
