David and I have been having an ongoing debate about M&M’s and whether or not each color tastes different. David insists the brown M&M’s are yucky and that the yellow ones are his favorite. He has been saying that he can tell the difference between the dyes on them. So yesterday we decided to put him to the test. We did this very scientific like. I opened a bag arranged the M&M’s in random order and fed them to David with his eyes closed and my hand covering the M&M to keep him from knowing the color. He then guessed each M&M as I fed them to him. We used two fun size bags (left over from our candy jars at the reception) to test his skill. Here are the results.

During this test procedure I couldnd't help but laugh on several different occasions it was just so funny to watch David try to decide the colors and in my head I kept thinking "Are we really doing this? Testing whether or not each color tastes different? They are all the same!" It was still pretty fun and humerous And it was David's idea. I think the one reply that cemented my theory was Test #2 M&M #3 the M&M was Brown and David answered Yellow, that right there to me says they all taste the same. However afterwards David told me that he thinks the Brown ones taste more like regular non-peanut M&M's and I will have to agree that I can ALMOST barely taste a slight hint of what he is sayin but not every Brown M&M has that regular M&M flavor so it still differs. David still doesn't like the Brown ones and Yellow ones are still his favorite so I don't think we really solved much haha but it was fun. What do you think??

HAHA that is hilarious. i think you should do another test with just yellow and brown ones... since those are the ones he specifically likes/dislikes.
That is so funny, HAHAHA! I think it is so cute that you guys actually tested it out, and that David still has his favorites! I bet yellow will always stay his favorite. :D
Hmm... ya I dont think they taste different... all the same to me! but I do know people who Really do think there is a difference. maybe brown makes him think of something he doesnt like? I dunno. crazy. but totally awesome you guys tested it!!! :D
Great fun! M&Ms all taste the same! But sixlets have different flavors!
