5. The mystery of the white Airhead candy flavor has been solved. It’s a combination of several Airheads flavors that might include cherry, strawberry, watermelon, grape, green apple, orange, and blue raspberry from one day to the next. It’s just a mashup of existing flavors as they are rolled through machinery. Creating the white flavor meant that candy makers didn’t have to change and clean machinery every time a new flavor needed to be made. Since Airheads debuted their mystery flavor, other candies, like Dum-Dums, Starburst and Twizzlers have debuted their own version. (TO)
