Starburst, When Did This Happen?

Categories: Dislikes

I’ve been eating Starburst since I was a baby.  My favorite flavor set was the tropical ones.  But recently, I discovered an odd unannounced change in the packaging of my all-time favorite flavor, strawberry-banana.

The classic wrapper on the strawberry-banana flavor was green.  I know, I know, it made no sense whatsoever.  But it was always a surprise to get the green wrapper with a pink starburst inside.

Am I going crazy here, or did they really make the decision to change the packaging color?  I mean, somebody high up at corporate had to actively make the decision to halt production and change the wrapper color to something more sensible.

I couldn’t find anything on the internet about this, but I feel a little cheated.  I’d like to know when this happened.
