What's the conspiracy against lime?

Seriously.
When I was a kid, if you had a candy that had several flavors in a pack (Life Savers, SweetTarts, etc), the green was always lime, yummiest of all fruit flavors.
Now, the green that was lime is either sour apple or watermelon, the two most unspeakably foul of all fruit flavors.
What's more, Life Savers got rid of lemon, too, replacing it with raspberry. Not as bad a loss, but the greens are still inedible. And they still have "pineapple," which tastes as little like pineapple as it ever has.
What the fuck? Are these candy company executives smoking some sort of incredibly potent crack that makes them think people like fucking sour apple and watermelon candy?
