M&M distribution

[fbhjr]

For the last 8 months or so, I’ve been tracking the color distribution of
the M&M’s I eat.
At least for the basic store ones, there are 6 colors.  If they were evenly
distributed it would be 16.66666ect% each.
It is close in the over all average.  (1366 sample size.)


But, if you get into the distribution of the different kinds it is less
clear.

I must admit there is a much lower sample size on the pretzel as I’ve only
had 2 bags of them and wasn’t impressed.  So, those results could be due to
the low sample size.

Huh.

It's hard to rid the brain of science...

I wasn't impressed with the pretzel m&m either.

While orange is my favorite color I prefer my m&m's red. I think it is from the time when we could not get a red m&m.

I am left wondering if there are any statistics which you DON'T keep track of

I still mourn the loss of the light-brown, caramel-colored ones from my youth. Blue doesn't make it up for me. Those were my favorites. (Dunno why!)
