I eat all the brown M&Ms first...
Then the green ones...

Then the yellow ones...

Then the orange ones...

Then the red ones...

Then finally the blue ones.


Do you have a certain way you eat your M&Ms?

1. As long as I eat the colors in pairs
I'm fine.

Although sometimes I'll split the colors. In that case I'd eat the browns, the reds, orange, yellows, blues then greens.

10. No, but as a Canadian I used to be bombarded with this commercial
Sing the Smarties Song!


When you eat your Smarties,
Do you eat the red ones last?
Do you suck them very slowly,
Or crunch them very fast?
Eat that candy-coated chocolate,
But tell me when I ask,
When you eat your Smarties,
Do you eat the red ones last?

17. Yes, I do, actually.
Edited on Thu Nov-01-07 03:19 PM by redqueen
I divide them all up by color, but I don't eat them based on which color tastes better... I eat whatever color I have the most of, first. And always in groups of whatever is the smallest number that evenly divides into the total amount of M&Ms of whatever color.

until they are all gone.

Some of us are just picky about how we eat M&Ms.

34. OK, now, I don't want to start a flame war or get anyone's nose bent out of shape here, but
I just eat M&Ms as they come, sometimes one at a time, sometimes a few.
Sometimes, if I have a glass of milk or a cup of coffee to go with it, I might grab
a scant handful. No particular color combos, no alphabetical order, no primary colors
first and then the brown, no tossing one over my shoulder and catching it on my left eyelid,
then bopping it onto the back of my right hand and popping it into my mouth.

Am I sick?
