Decided to nibble on a Starburst-like candy from a package that'd been on the shelf for a bit, figured no big deal, probably stale. Still sealed, tho!
I started to nibble, and it was alright, flavor was faded. Then a new flavor kicked in, a very distinct flavor, the fine flavor of rot.
So anyway those are in the trash now. I am going to go ahead and say I don't think Rot would make an excellent flavor.
