Does anyone else have to senselessly sort out all the colors of say, skittles, or sweet tarts and eat them in a specific order? This process seems to horrify my friends (and if that doesn't, the fact that I can't eat either w/out a nice tall, cool glass of milk does).

If so, what's your typical order of colors?

Skittles: (original)

orange
yellow
green
purple
red

Sweet Tarts:

blue (gag)
orange
green
yellow
purple
red

Candies like M&Ms and Reeses Pieces don't count, since they all taste the same. And it's been so long since I've had Starbursts that I don't remember, except that I end with pink and start with orange.

So am I the only freak out there? ABOUT CANDY I MEAN! Sheesh.

Yup your pretty freaky there Whir. I just grab a handful and pop 'em in my mouth.

You've got some problems.

No, I don't really care... I just grab a mix of colors and enjoy as I watch people like YOU sit around me and watch in horror.

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!!"

or better yet...

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING! THERE ARE RED ONES IN THERE!"

Buahahaha! I are nutz!

I AM the guy that screams about eating the red ones. Those are always last.

Way back in high school, I had a friend over one night. I had gotten down to just the purple and red skittles from like four 2lb bags (that took forever, I can't eat many at time). While I was downstairs he proceeded to eat almost everyone of the red ones. I almost killed him.

To heck with butterfinger, nobody better lay a finger on my red skittles!!

Starbursts rule!

I often will eat the all the red ones first.
Then the orange ones.
Then the yellow ones.
I'll leave all the pink ones for someone else.

Or if I'm feeling particularly neurotic, then I'll smush a red one together with a yellow one and bite it in half. That way I get a cherry-lemon Starburst.

Anyone tried the sour Starburst. OMG they are gooood. Especially the red. And the pink is not a crappy strawberry, but instead it's watermelon...and pretty good. Finally I can buy a bag of Starburst and be able to eat them all. bwahahahahaha.

<Candies like M&Ms and Reeses Pieces don't count, since they all taste the same>

No they don't, the brown M&Ms are terrible by themselves..YUK!
I don't sort my candy out though,If I did the kids/dog/cats would eat it all before I got done

Peanut M&Ms rule...IMO.

IMO=In MO.

(in this case)
