What is in the center of a skittle?

Question

not the bubble gum ones

Answer 1

umm i cant find the answer anywhere but from the taste i would probs say maybe sugar and something else.

P.S. what is with the bowling pin answer? lol =]

Answer 2

I cut one up to see and there was a metal rod inside. I haven't repeated the experiment so this may be a one off.

Answer 3

I'm surprised to see this question coming from someone who spells center the way you did. A skittle is a British bowling pin.  Its center is wooden - just like its outside. Its center of gravity is just slightly higher than half way up its lower "fat" part. Or is "Skittle" a trade name of some product?
