This makes me laugh, because this is a source of great controversy in our house.  I am a Skittles guy.  Debbie loves them too, but not to the extent I do.  To me, it is the number one movie candy of all time.

Now, when it comes to eating Skittles, there are two camps:  those that  eat em like me (just by the handful, all at once, mixing flavors), and those that are like Debbie.  These psychotic people pour out the Skittles from the bag and separate them by color.  Her reason for doing this?  Simple..."the green ones."  When the candy first came out, the green flavor was lime (I loved/Debbie loved).  Then it switched to green apple (I love/Debbie HATES).  Now, it's coming back to lime.  I wonder if this means she'll still be separating her flavors?
