The post in question, which was both mathematically inaccurate and wrong, drew outrage on Twitter. People replied to the meme by posting pictures of refugees with the caption "not a skittle."

The company that owns Skittles, Wrigley America, later released the following statement to media organisations (including Mashable):

Many on Twitter praised Skittles for the statement:
