What have you done to my Life Savers?

Yesterday I bought a couple of rolls of "Five Flavors" Life Savers, for the first time in maybe 15 years. Just now I opened one. The green candy I tried first didn't taste like lime.

 The five flavors I remember are Lemon, Lime, Orange, Grapefruit, and Cherry. I looked at the label. The five flavors now are Watermelon, Pineapple, Cherry, Raspberry, and Orange. When did that happen? And why?

Is nothing sacred any longer?

1 Nooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!
I like citrus flavors, especially lime.  Just about every other color-coded candy has a noxious 'green apple' or watermelon flavor as green.  Life Savers used to be one of the few exceptions.  *Sighs* I should be avoiding candy anyways....

2 I just gave up but I do miss grapefruit. I prefer the gummy ones though.
