I was eating skittles earlier, and now i have an odd taste in my mouth, and it kind of feels like an extra layer of skin in my mouth.

Junk Food: Candy and other junk foods are loaded w/chemicals and sugar that the body does not recognize. If this persists please see your doctor. Peace and good health. Dark chocolate (80% or more) is a better choice.

Odd taste: Candy contains a wide variety of chemicals and additives. Perhaps you are having an allergic response to one of the myriad of ingredients. See if avoiding Skittles (there are a lot of other candies to choose from) eliminates your problem. If not, see our GP.
