Skittles Giants
Product Insights
Skittles Giants are large, fruit‑flavored chewy candies marketed by the Skittles brand and fall under the sugary snacks family (PNNS groups "Sugary snacks" and "Sweets"). The product carries a Nutri‑Score of E and is classified in the NOVA 4 group, reflecting its ultra‑processed nature with added sugars, several food‑grade additives, and palm fat. While it offers a quick source of energy, it contains very high sugar (≈75 g per 100 g), negligible protein, modest fat, and virtually no salt, making it a treat rather than a nutritious option.
