      ​@@lebronjames-eb4pe All the flavors are labeled as having "artificial flavors" and because orange isnt classified as a major allergen they dont have to label it furthur. It would be nice if companies were generally more transparent about ingredients but realistically anyone dangerously allergic to an artificial flavor is avoiding all fruit flavored candies because there is almost certainly cross contamination on the lines between flavors.

    I heard once that mystery flavors can also be from when they switch production lines on Mass produced stuff. They drop out the color but the raw material will still have some residual flavor from the first batch. So if they're making cherry then switch to orange there's some overlap before it only tastes like orange. So they cut the color and make mystery.

So I just assumed they changed flavors mid run and capitalized on the previous waste product. Hooray for corporations figuring out how to profit on waste byproduct.

    The mystery ones where im from are just random flavors that are already available (in my area). So basically for me its either blue raspberry watermelon or cherry, thats it. You may be right that its leftovers, but it doesnt taste like multiple flavors mixed together, just a random pick of those 3 flavors. If your wondering, its not colored like the regular ones, just white like theyve always been so you dont know until you take a bite
