originally colored red with a flavor unique to the candy (often guessed to be lingonberry, but never verified), they are now also available in several different colors, such as orange & lemon-lime. purple swedish fish in grape flavor were discontinued in 2006. the fish come in two different sizes. initially, the smaller fish came only in red; now fish of both sizes are available in all flavors. according to a visit to the factory on the food network's show "unwrapped", green is not lime, but pineapple flavor, while yellow is a lemon-lime flavor.
