Grab a paper bag and start deep-breathing (or, better yet, grab your keys and jump in the car): Bags of all-pink Starburst are now in stores.

Of course, if you're not into going on a scavenger hunt for candy - or calling every Target, Walmart, and Walgreens in your area - you can always pick up a bag on Amazon.

When it comes to Starburst, everyone can agree that the best flavor is pink. While red and orange try really hard to be the favorite, nothing compares to that sweet strawberry square. (And that's not just because they can be turned into Cosmos.) And now, after years of fans displaying their affection for its fruit chews, the candy company is finally releasing a bag dedicated to the most beloved flavor.

According to Matt Montei, the senior director of confections at Starburst's parent company, Wrigley, the idea was born from candy fans. (I mean, duh.) "On social media we're seeing people talk about pink Starburst more than any other flavor; there's even a meme about being treated 'like a Pink Starburst,'" he told Mashable . "The Pink conversation and fanfare has continued to grow so we decided to act."

The worst part is waiting until April to get your hands on one of these beautiful bags. Unsurprisingly, they'll be limited-edition and you'll be able to find them at Target, Walmart, Walgreens, Kroger, Meijer, HEB, and Amazon. So be on the lookout and when they drop, buy in bulk.
