This struck as I was enjoying a box of Mike and Ike's. Nobody's favorite candy flavors are the any of the artifical citrus flavor. Everybody likes cherry the best, grape and strawberry too. Maybe something exotic like pineapple. But the candy companies still keep packing their boxes with orange, lemon and lime.
If somebody held up a handful of lollipops to you and said pick one, I doubt you would be choosing orange, lemon or lime!
(Note, I'm not talking about REAL fruit flavor, I'm talking the artificial fruit candy flavors we grew up with)
