Sour Patch Kids become Sour Patch Adults in apparent April Fools joke Wikimedia Commons \/ Mondel\u0113z InternationalIt seems Sour Patch Kids is rebranding in what may be an early April Fools joke, as the popular candy claims it will now be called \u2018Sour Patch Adults.\u2019 It seems the Sour Patch Kids brand of candy may be trying to get ahead of the April Fools\u2019 Day game after its official X account has undergone an apparent rebrand. After changing its profile picture to a monochrome, frowning Sour Patch Kid wearing a suit and tie, the account posted a simple tweet that said: \u201cIt\u2019s time to grow up.\u201d Attached to the tweet, an image reads, \u201cEffective immediately, we are Sour Patch Adults. We deeply regret the mischief, tomfoolery, or otherwise child-like behavior in our past.\u201d The post continued and said the candy brand\u2019s new goal would be to \u201clead with maturity and tact\u201d going forward. The post itself seems to mirror modern brand apology messages, with a brief statement followed by a much longer message included as an image on a monochrome background. Other brands on X jumped in on the fun, as the Instacart account responded, \u201cSo we\u2019re just skipping the awkward unapologetic sour patch teen phase? Some X users were confused by the post, with many claiming Sour Patch Adults was a little too early to post their joke. \u201cThis is a couple of days early, no?\u201d asked one user, while another said, \u201cLmao it\u2019s not even April 1st yet.\u201d However, some X users honed in on what really matters here: \u201cI hope this just means bigger candy, because I could totally eat that.\u201d I hope this just means bigger candy, because I could totally eat that \u2014 Bayle (@BayleGoldman) March 27, 2024 With April 1, 2024, just a few days away only time will tell what exactly Sour Patch Adults will do with this new, more mature rebrand.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
