I separate M&Ms by color and eat them one at a time. I save the best, the green ones, for last. My sister makes fun of me for that. Until this thread, I thought that I was the only one who did this.

Peaches, I do the same thing, but I always save the BROWN ones for last. You are not alone.
I tend to separate jelly beans too (because I just don't like the black, white or green ones.)

Normally I mix them all up, but there are some times that I feel like separating them into colors (especially Skittles, since they each have a distinct flavor, but M&Ms don't  )

I separate them but I am not sure it is because they taste different. I think it is just habit because I do it to M&M's also and they all taste the same.

Skittles: I only eat the red and purple ones.
M&M's: I eat all together, since they're all chocolate.
Jelly Beans: I'm VERY picky about. In fact, I rarely eat them. When I do, it's usually only Jelly Belly brand so that I can compare to the back of the packaging and pick out the flavors that I know I already like.

I seperate my Skittles by color and eat them in the order of orange, yellow, green, red then purple.
I used to divide up my M&M's by color and eat them in two's when I was little but I've kind of stopped that now.
I had no idea how common this stuff was.

I separate my Skittles and eat them in the order of: orange, green, yellow, red, purple (least to most favorite).
What is really sad is the way I eat a Twix bar. I eat the top first (the chocolate and carmel or peanut butter), then eat the chocolate all around the cookie bar, then eat the cookie.
Are any of you like that, or should I be institutionalized?

I eat the red, buff and green skittles last...
I separate my candy bars too. I especially like to do this with Three Musketeers...
You cannot put two m&m's of different colors into your mouth at the same time.. it's not pure. If you are left with some at the end of the bag, then you can eat primary colors with secondary colors if the primary colors make the secondary colors (so you can eat a blue or a yellow with a green, a red or a yellow with an orange, etc. You can eat yellow, red or orange with a brown). You must eat two at a time, one on each side of the mouth... Yes, I am a little OCD with this!
I am soooooooooo hungry.. doing prep for a procedure tomorrow and have been on clear fluids all day. I have to stop reading food threads.

For those of you who don't care about fast food and diets who eat McDonalds' Chicken McNuggets, how do you eat them?
Do you dip the whole thing in the dipping sauce and then bite?
Or are you weird like me and you peel the outside off, eat it, and then dip and bite?

I DO THAT. I always get shit about it. I use to get all 3 sauces and alternate the dipping too but now they charge for sauce so I don't anymore. And whenever I eat a Swiss Cake Roll I eat the chocolate off, then unroll it as I eat the rest.

When you eat Skittles, Jelly Beans, Smarties, or any other candy that has different flavors, do you separate and eat each color/flavor separately, or do you mix them up and eat them as they come out of the wrapper? If you do eat them separately, do you eat your favorite flavor first, or save it for last?

split them up by color/flavor then save my favorite for last. I even do this with MnMs.. even though there is NO difference

I'm usually driving when I eat those candies. So, I can't exactly seperate them, so whatever comes out first.
They really don't taste any different. Except for Jelly Belly's, you have to watch out if you eat more than one at a time.
As for McDonalds and other places with chips and salsa, I'm a double dipper.
If you don't like it, ask for your own dip.
