Today I am going to blog about the age old question that everyone always thinks about: Do skittles have a taste?
I was at my friend's house the other day and we were discussing the matter of Movie Theater foods. My friend noted that she could NOT eat skittles or m&m's in the movie theater, because it was dark and she could never tell what colors she was eating. She noted that she only liked the green m&m's and that she couldn't stand the taste of purple skittles!
After telling her that I never really paid any attention to what colors I ate or how they differed in taste, I decided to test her. I told her to close her eyes as I pulled out a skittle. I anxiously put it in her hand and watched as she popped it in her mouth. Can you guess what color I gave her? If the taste didn't give the color away I was sure that my unstopping giggles would. I was glad when they didn't.
"Green?" She guessed. "Red? Yellow?"
I laughed and told her that it was purple. Obviously, her complete dislike for purple skittles was completely ....there's a word, it means 'it's all in your head'.
After testing her, her husband noted that he could tell the difference. So, we tested him. The results were incredible! As soon as his wife tossed a skittle into his mouth he knew what color it was. It was so cool! I was like, "Wow, do it again!"
Anyway, it was really funny! I guess the answer to the question is: it depends on who you are. For someone like me, skittles and m&m's all taste the same. I mean. That is. They taste the same as themselves. Not that an m&m tastes anything like a skittle. At least I can tell THAT difference.

"I mean. That is. They taste the same as themselves. Not that an m&m tastes anything like a skittle. At least I can tell THAT difference." hehe, you make me laugh Julia! Funny post, I enjoyed it. And for the record, skittles definitely have a different taste for each color. M&M's on the other hand....DEFINITELY all the same. :) I still question smarties though....
smarties do have a different flavor per color, but you have to get a whole package of that color to tell the difference. And now I'm really curious to see if I can tell the difference in skittles. Hey any excuse to go and buy skittles sounds like a good idea to me!
*side note* Hey have you or Grandma found a 4pack dvd of musicals? its got meet me in St. Louis, the band wagon, singing in the rain, and easter parade on it. I cant figure out where it is. Last place I remember having it was at grandmas house. Let me know if you've seen it!
Oh, just fyi...it's harder than I thought to tell specifically which skittle flavor is which. We tried it out at rehearsal on Friday. We did ok, but it wasn't exactly easy! :)
So I start reading and you stop writing, what is with that?!
