Did you know sour candy usually contains an acid (usually citric acid)? To investigate which candies contained the largest amounts of acid, we tested them using a base (baking soda). The more bubbles we observed, the more acidic the candy was! We tested Sour Skittles, original Skittles, Smarties, sour gummy worms, gummy bears, and sour watermelon candies.
