According to TikTok you\u2019ve been eating Airheads wrong your entire life TikTokAirheads are a nostalgic treat for a lot of people, but TikTokers are saying that you\u2019re missing out on one vital step when you\u2019re eating them. Airheads are a chewy candy that will likely take you right back to childhood, but you\u2019re probably used to eating the strips of gooey goodness in three or four bites due to their long, flat shape. Well, according to people on TikTok, you will be today years old when you find out how you\u2019re actually supposed to eat them. Several influencers, including food blogger Jordan The Stallion, have claimed that you\u2019re supposed to shake the Airhead until it changes into a small cube. Jordan is known for his content about food secrets and life hacks, and after he tried this trick, viewers were amazed to find that the candy shrunk to a quarter of its size and resembled a pillow. Jordan even claimed that the \u2018white mystery\u2019 flavor Airhead tasted different after he tried this trick, but these Airheads actually taste different from batch to batch so it\u2019s unlikely that you\u2019d ever get two that taste the same. According to Airhead manufacturers, when a run of one flavor is finished, the company may have some candy left over but not enough to produce a full run. It mixes the leftovers from multiple batches and doesn\u2019t add food coloring to produce White Mystery. People were commenting saying that the action of shaking the candy \u2018hurt their knuckles\u2019, and others were suggesting that you can even put the Airhead in hot water to get the same effect. One user even commented saying: \u201cIt\u2019s called pillowing and was common knowledge passed by word of mouth when I was a kid.\u201d Whereas, most people in the comments were just surprised that it actually worked in the first place. According to another TikToker, the Airhead logo, a small red balloon in the right-hand corner of the wrapper, is an indication of how you are supposed to eat it, because you are meant to shake the candy until it\u2019s the same size as the logo. Although Airhead manufacturers have not commented on this \u2018discovery\u2019 that people are making on TikTok, some candy fans were skeptical stating that if they were supposed to be eaten this way, surely there would be a tutorial on the packet. A former employee at a factory that produced Airheads did give some insider insight though: \u201cJust so you know, I used I work at the Airhead factory\u2026.and this is utter bullsh*t. They\u2019re called AIRHEADS because they\u2019re full of air. You\u2019re shaking out the air.\u201d This isn\u2019t the only thing about candy from your childhood that you might be shocked to find out. Recently, people were vowing never to eat from candy machines again after finding out what\u2019s inside them. Are Airheads still in production? This TikTok trend was prompting people to share that they hadn\u2019t eaten an Airhead in years, and it\u2019s true that this is a candy that is more popular with children. However, back in 2022, there were rumors circulating on TikTok that Airheads were ceasing production until 2024, and this prompted people to stock up on supplies of the chewy candy. This rumor got so out of hand that Airheads even had to release a statement to dispel any false information. Nobody actually knows why this rumor came about, but the good news is that Airheads are still in production so you can still give this new method of eating them a try.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
