    I am certainly not an expert on Skittles, but I would guess it doesn't matter since they are simply sugar. Can they even go stale?

    If I had a pack in front of me. 5 minutes tops heh

    Skittles doesn't really get the stale? It's so full of sugar it prolly can last for weeks

    I think stale skittles are safer than frozen skittles.

    Not long around me (tee hee). Actually, with all the sugar and preservatives, I would think a few months at most from the time you bought them.

    Vend Max suggests a shelf life of one year. Did you know they are not a vegetarian product. The contain gelatin made from animals.

    I don't know if there's really an expiration date, but I'm sure it's safe to eat after they are stale... you might get a tummyache but no biggie.

    Being as it is sugar and cornsyrup- it should have a lifespan of up to six months...but it is candy- why wait?

    If they look, taste and smell OK then go for it. There are so many preservatives in these things they'll last ages.

    Probably about a few days or I wouldn't eat them if it is longer than that.
