    I'm pretty sure there might be a couple of other flavors, but not as widespread?? 

    This is where my brain fart gets really bad, because I was seriously looking at the list and going, "I had no idea they came in so many flavors, and how in the world can you pick out each itty bitty piece from the whole variety box?!" HAHA!

    YES. Look at the colors! I knew I wasn't totally nuts.

    The bolded part is exactly what I was thinking!  I'm over here going, 'I know they have the multicolored boxes but does she know of some magical separated boxes of each flavor??' :)  Glad we're on the same page with our candy knowledge.
  • They sell the mini boxes of Nerds at Halloween.  Those are usually individual flavors.  Or they sell the boxes of two that are separated.  They've come in A LOT of flavors over the years.

    If you want to go really old school, they used to sell them in Nerd shaped plastic containers of individual flavors.
