Flavor distribution of a wholesale club jar of Starburst original - original research

I buy the jar of Starburst for Sam’s Club, which according to the label contains about 318 candies (53 servings of 6 each).

Naturally, I only eat exactly one of each flavor if I have any at all.

This means that when I run out of a flavor, I can determine how many of the other flavors are left over. I’ve done this the last 3 times, so I thought I’d share the results.

My personal favorite is pink. Pink is never the dominant flavor. Figures.

I hope this advances humanity.

I do the same with M&Ms, except I eat the odd number to leave pairs then eat a pair at a time until I have the same number of pairs. Not a psychopath at all…

Some years ago my wife asked me how I was feeling, and I replied with “I am functioning within normal parameters.”

I got the strangest look…

At least you didn’t say “I am working as designed.”
