you can order the fancy colored ones online by the pound...as if a pound of m&ms (ANY kind) is enough.
does anyone else sort them and make color combinations or have i just proven how off the wall i really am?
I like to eat one color at a time...I miss the tan ones but I don't know why..I didn't eat those....
You can also have M & M's specially printed for occasions...I'm getting some for my son's wedding

Yeah Don, Some of the more rural area's in Oregon can't be expected to be too conventional. Speak with the new manager, perhaps he can special order them !

Sure, but they don't taste as good as the color they replaced ! Blue is a very different area of the spectrum color-wise ! It can't possible taste the same as a red/yellow/ brown tone, it's in the center of the spectrum of color, not the left side ! I'm not sure if this should be a state or federal mandate. I wouldn't mind if W. Virginia kept the Blue colored M&M's, (I don't want to appear too cavalier, or nit-picky) but it's crucial that the next Governer running in Ct. address this predicament before the 40th anniversary of the blue M&M comes up end of 2007 !
Or was it 1987 ? Don't recall...

Holy Xit, would *I* have lost money on a wager !!!! M&M switched to blue just 10 years ago, in 1995. I could've sworn it was 1967 !

OH this guy! Yeah, he got transfered to the Canby store a month or so ago. He plays the damn hip-hop station too loud all the time, the Cheddar Brats are always old and cold, no onions are ever chopped up and he cuts off beer sales ten minutes too early. Really ticks me off!

I hope he honor's the three hotdogs for $1, and doesn't run out like they do around here. I remember I used to get the munchies all the time around 2-3AM when bars were closing. I don't want to act ignorant, or sound like some sort've a biggot, or racist. But if middle-easterners want to buy into our businesses, they really should have a certain amount of respect for our culture, and customs, a good way to start, is having muchies after closing time !... It'd be ashame to think that this new guy who's gone thru the trouble of buying his franchise, is already shooting himself in the foot, agitating patrons inadvertently.
btw, How's the board of health in your area, with barrier laws ? With the Chasidic Sideburns, and that long jewish beard it looks as though he just stepped off've El-Al airlines from an Orthodox Synagogue in Israel someplace. As I stated, I don't want to say anything foolish, but he's way too Rabbinical looking. What do you want to make a bet, he even has a mazzuzza on that 7-11 entry ? Look at his lip's ! I studied Lip Synch'ing. He's probably telling someone " Good Pasach, Don't forget to say the Shma before bed tonight!"

We have a large Indian community where I live. Great people. My daughter has lots of brown friends, as she calls them. Very seldom do we see someone wearing a turbin or what ever its called.
We also have the largest Hindu temple in America here in Bartlett, Illinois.
They think it is funny whan you joke about them owning 7-11s and Dunkin Donuts. The people I know don't take offense.

Yeah Bab's, It's obvious this photo was taken on the Sabbath, and Mr. Rosenkrantz here is superstitious. He's afraid of taking his Yarmulka off. Not that I'm a religious scholar or anything close, but it's an educated guess !

Peanut & plain all in one.
First you bite it so it cracks open. Then you eat the peanut and then save the outside. You keep doing this until you have a whole bag of the outer shell. I guess that would then make them plain! Then you eat them!!! That's what I do anyway!!
Kinda like my oreos and many other candies.
Have a good day!

OK, for me the truth is...

Sorry, TMI, but that's just the way I am.

there is nothign wrong with a good blue m&m! my favorites were the purple ones the had for a while...a lovely shade of orchid, actually.
i usually start with blue-green-brown combinations. two blues and one green is always lovely. i feed the green ones to chuck sometimes (TMI again, i know). i'm not as fond of yellow and orange--they are just not as subtle i guess.
i have this OCD theory that the brown ones are more chocolate-y. i know it can't be ture but please don't burst my bubble as my therapist says i am in a fragile state and need constant reassurance.
