Yeah, but it's so that the kids can focus better and do better on tests. No more need to try increasing education budgets around the country. Just give the kids some gum!
@@---GOD--- "Inside One Of The Only Skittles Factories In The US" is the title. "This Skittles factory helped shape the economy of the small town of Yorkville, IL. The 19,000-person town gets tax benefits for building the giant candy factory. Today, the factory employs 425 people, who make millions of packages of candy and gum a year." is the description. So tell me again where it says "How Skittles Are Made"
Serious wtf. I heard skittles are all the same flavor and I'm trying to debunk this. I don't wanna hear the old man's tale of manipulating paperwork for tax money.
thought this was a tour of the factory or a how it's made thing but I'm so glad i know about 75 employees income helping local diners, feels great thanks!
Makes me sad, actually. There was a Hersey's factory in my home town for almost 30 years...then, out of the blue, they said they were shutting it down. A few months later, 200+ people out of work, no more chocolate smell on the breeze. I really hope the same doesn't happen to this town.
I thought this was going to be about the making of skittles? Not about the BS tax breaks given to a MULTI-BILLION a year corporation ( Mars Inc.) that gets to pay only HALF of the property tax the factory sits on, nor am I interested in hearing how donating gum to schools is somehow a noble effort on the part of a corporation. Whatever, moving on.
Plano IL: We have a world famous plastic moulding company that boosts our economy. Neighboring Town of Yorkville: We got candy and cross country runners.
Skittles Are My FAVORITE Candy And Has Become My Marine Sons FAVORITE Too! We Send Them To Him And His Platoon Overseas All The Time And The SMILES That It Brings, Having That Skittles From Back Home... Just Brings Immense Happiness ♥️😁
Coming from someone who lives less than a mile away from the factory I rarely smell it and our economy is terrible our local government has no knowledge about how to deal with it.
I remember one time I was in Yorkville maybe around 12 at night and I passed by the factory and I had no idea it was a Skittles factory until I was told by a resident and I tell you it was the most confusing and funny experience I've ever felt passing by the factory and it smelling like Skittles it was crazy lol
It’s only about an hour and a half away from Chicago so even though it’s small, it’s pretty easy for people living there to experience what the city has to offer when they want to
Aimen Halim What?? That’s just not true. Also Amazon knows what they’re worth, that’s why they can set the demands. Amazon brings thousands of jobs and billions in tax revenue whereever it builds.
@@monkey220ms they gave a federal tax check of a whopping $0. Think he might be talking about that or about how they didn't want to pay any which would just be for negotiating
@@monkey220ms Not true? Do you want to know how many federal taxes Amazon paid for 2018? Not a single penny. And Amazon was demanding huge concessions. NYC was going to cough up 3.4 billion dollars! And yes, Amazon is bringing in billions of dollars...for itself! Major corporations in this country are NOT paying their fare share (or any) taxes to either local or federal governments.
@@AHalz Do you understand how taxes work? You said that "they refuse to pay taxes" which is not true. They got tax breaks, which is normal for such a large corporation. You stoopid DUMDUMDUMDUMDUM.
I like the way there trying to make out there doing your town a favour because they employ 450+ people, pay a few taxes and give away a few bits of gum now and again
There is also a Wrigley's factory in Flowerybranch, Georgia. You can smell the gum being made there in that town also. I had a friend who lived there and I always thought it was fun/cool when I drove through and could smell the fruity flavors 🌈🥰
I have a Skittle story. They are my favorite candy and I eat them all the time. Daily. One time I inhaled the sweet nectar of Skittle spit into my lungs as I was trying to swallow lol, and I hacked my brains out like I taken the world's biggest bong hit. Then it gave me bronchitis. Had to go to the hospital. But the funny part is now, whenever you inhale some food into your windpipe we call it "Skittle lung."😂
I also live in a small town with a really big chocolate factory. I literally got 5 king size bars for 25 Swedish crowns which is roughly 2 dollars and 60 cents.
I feel that this was more an advertisement, than an informational video. And the prospective worded comments about "giving out free candy" isn't what i would call a good thing...
We've donated gum to schools... amazing, absolute saint lmao
more than what you have done
Yeah, but it's so that the kids can focus better and do better on tests. No more need to try increasing education budgets around the country. Just give the kids some gum!

Wtf? Shit has changed!
Youre just unlucky. Every school around where I live allows gum
Weird flex but ok
Sophia campos sane

Exactly😂
Doesnt even have the same sour flavor kick it once did.
All I got to say is thank you for keeping the factory in America. I presume it hurts your profits but none the less it's the right thing to do
I’ve lived in Illinois all my life and have not know that I lived close to a damn skittles factory 💀
Hell, I live in Yorkville, IL my whole life and had no idea that they are here lol.

Show more about skittles in your inside a skittles factory video
Talks about Yorkville. Portrays Yorkville as a tiny country town.
Me: *Is literally only an hour out from Chicago* B*tch you what?
It’s........Just..........So.........Beautiful
Imagine just sitting on a bench eating skittles and some dude just comes up and says "Did you know those were made in Yorkville?"
Title: *Inside a skittles factory*
THE VIDEO: * Taxes with the word skittles being mentioned a few times*

You just have to drive to go anywhere fun. Unless ur going to raging waves.
I live in Lakewood creek down route 30. I actually wanted a job here but I never got a chance to apply.
WTF!!!!! I live like 30 mins away and never knew this was there i I pass this town like every two weeks
I used to live like right next to it. It would smell like skittles in the morning. It was awesome

I’m getting a Charlie and the chocolate factory vibe for some reason.
More large company’s should open factories like this in small cities.
And make the big cities full of homeless people.
Steven Juris what do you mean??? Most of these factories are in other country’s. Tbh I could care less about them, because America is 1st priority.
I’m eating skittles right now, lol.

Well I live in Wisconsin and my town has a huge brewery and when I drive by it smells like someone took a huge shit within a mile of the place.
The candies are amazing
I didn’t even know there was a skittles place In Yorkville and I only live 30 minutes from there in Plainfield
Bet the dentist are happy with all the donated candy
funny I found this video, I work at a Mars candy factory in Illinois and we get shipped hella of those skittles pallets
I think they should make a skittles gum that would sell quite good (plus I'd love that)
Once I retire, I WILL work in either a Skittles or Mike and Ike plant.
I also live in a small town with a really big chocolate factory. I literally got 5 king size bars for 25 Swedish crowns which is roughly 2 dollars and 60 cents.
