Am I eating them wrong maybe? Maybe I don't have the distinct taste buds that are needed for M&M's or what?

Kobi is correct. All M&Ms tastes exactly the same; the colors make them visually appealing.

The only wrong way to eat an M&M is to not eat them at all. You do not need special taste buds.


::blinks::

Um, I was also correct as you can see in big bold.

I have to disagree....I am funny that way The green ones are the best tasting ones

My boss likes to put hers in the microwave for a few seconds. She says it's like a tiny burst of chocolate when you bite into them. I have yet to try this for the fear of doing it wrong and making a mess in the microwave. I prefer peanut M&M's, eaten a few at a time not paying attention to color.

Ever been the M&M Store on the Strip in Vegas. Mesmerizing. All these clear plastic tubes filled with every color M under the sun. And they are dispensers with a little spigot at the bottom. You can fill a bag with your own color mix. But be careful. Before you know it you are hauling 20 lbs. on M's back home. This is what heaven looks like in my dreams.

I dont sort them or put them in patterns or microwave them or freeze them. I don't care much about the colors since they all taste the same, but I do look at them before I eat them and prefer the peanut ones.

OOOH! I have questions. Do they look back at you? Do they get nervous when you look at them? Do they try to wriggle out of your hand? Are the ones you haven't picked up yet able to see you eat their compatriots? Do they try to keep from making eye contact with you when you are trying to pick which one to eat next? Have you ever had the feeling that they were moving away from the others you were picking up to avoid being picked up themselves?

Thanks for any info you can give me
Smooches,

I eat M & M's as.... A LAST RESORT when I am desperately craving sugar and there is absolutely NOTHING ELSE in the house. Any port in a storm and all that. And trust me, if there is a storm brewing you better not make waves in the sweet department

[Scots_On_The_Rocks]

No patterns, no sorting beforehand...but I do try to eat the blue ones last....they are my favourites.

Once upon a time there lived a King.
The King had a beautiful daughter, The PRINCESS..
But there was a problem. Everything the princess touched would melt.

No matter what;
Metal,
Wood,

Stone,

Anything she touched would melt.

Because of this, men were afraid of her. Nobody would dare marry her.
The King despaired. What could he do to help his daughter?
He consulted his wizards and magicians. One wizard told the King, 'If your daughter touches one thing that does not melt in her hands,she will be cured.'
The King was overjoyed and came up with a plan.
The next day, he held a competition. Any man that could bring his daughter an object that would not melt would marry her and inherit the King's wealth...

THREE YOUNG PRINCES TOOK UP THE CHALLENGE.
The first brought a sword of the finest steel.
But alas, when the Princess touched it, it melted.
The prince went away sadly

The second prince brought diamonds.
He thought diamonds are the hardest substance in the world and would not melt. But alas, once the Princess touched them, they melted.
He too was sent away disappointed.

The third prince approached. He told the Princess,
'Put your hand in my pocket and feel what is in there.'
The Princess did as she was told, though she turned red .
She felt something hard. She held it in her hand.

And it did not melt!!!

The King was overjoyed. Everybody in the kingdom was overjoyed.
And the third Prince married the Princess and they both lived happily ever after.

Question: What was in the Prince's pants?

M&M's of course.
They melt in your mouth, not in your hand.
What were you thinking??

I WORRY ABOUT YOU SOMETIMES.

I want to go here!

I like to separate my M&Ms by color. Since I'm watching what I eat I only eat 200 calories of M&Ms at a time which is approximately 48 M&Ms. I line up 8 yellow, 8 orange, 8 red, 8 green, 8 blue, and 8 brown in that order. Then I eat them four at a time - two of one color and two of another color changing up the color combinations as I go.

peanut m&ms are my favorite candy snack i treat myself to them after grocery shopping...or for movie nite at home...i do not eat plain m&ms

[Smiling]

lol, this is totally weird but when I eat M&Ms, I only open up a little corner of the bag so that I can't see inside and I try to psychically predict which color will come out next.

Also, if get two or more of the same color at once, it means I win - especially if I've predicted it;
[who is playing against me, I do not know] and the prize is good luck; and the more candies of the same color at once, the bigger the win and better the luck because, of course, the odds are against that happening and you know, lol, it's not at all ridiculous to think this way.

I have no idea how, why, or when this started; as I remember, I have just always done it. lol, so just how much am I showing my crazy here?

[Softquietfemme]

These are not a snack option anymore but when they were...

I ate them sorted by color ... The color with the least amount got eaten first. I also liked the chocolate on the peanut ones best but don't care for the nuts.., so I would suck all the chocolate off and throw away the peanuts....

[iamkeri1]

No M&M's for me today.

I just wanted to tell all you weirdo M&M sorting folks that I think you are extremely cool (and also deranged.) I look forward to posts in the M&M thread almost more than any other. Much love to you all.
Smooches,
Keri
