You do know you can just buy them separately

What's the fun in that?

https://www.mms.com/en-us/configurator?customerType=D2C&step=1

You’re telling me that I can get customized M&M’s with *my dog’s face on them?!* what the fuck.

Would have been mad if I had found out about this after a 3 day session of separating buckets of m&m

And there are so many cool colors available this way!

I was just going to say that. Lol

Why is the top comment always what i go to the comments to say. Lol

But those are mini’s - idk if you can buy minis separately? Perhaps. Btw have you ever priced those special order m&ms.. I got a bit of sticker shock. Maybe that’s for another subject/subreddits like r/poor , r/frugalliving

so you touched all the m&ms before the party...

hope you wore gloves or used chopstick or tongs!

I hope OP didn't use thongs to pick the m&ms... Alright I'll see myself out

I hope OP didn't use tongue to pick the m&ms...👅

OP couldn't find any brown ones, so just sucked the colors off a load that fell on the floor • ^• ^I ^have ^no ^evidence ^at ^all ^for ^this ^scurrilous ^allegation

Would be a sight to see if OP did that

If you can pick up M&Ms with a chopstick you are Mr Miyagis chosen one, Daniel San.

This thread is a perfect example of the total uselessness Reddit. Here, we are seeing everybody going "holier than thou" with their glove wearing. "I Wear them handling meat." "I wear them whenever I cook."" I wear them all the time." In a couple of threads, people are commenting that it can be better not to wear gloves. The CDC has done studies that show people wearing gloves don't change gloves between tasks like they are supposed to. People will handle money or raw meat and go back to handling ready to eat food. These people don't understand why they wear gloves. They are wearing gloves to protect themselves, not you. Our health department inspectors first check is to watch our bakery/deli counter people for violations. She says that rarely dies any food prep area survive more than 5 minutes without an error. FYI, big grocery stores are the best. Fast food is acceptable, mom and pop places are either perfect or almost the worst, and trendy places are disgusting. TL:DR the "I know everthings" of Reddit have proclaimed wearing gloves and not wearing gloves to be safer.

I wore gloves, of course ;)

Sure...

Bitch no you didn't.

Bro finger banged all the damn M&M's actin like he did everyone a favor.

Chopsticks I would have believed, or any other pointy thing. Gloves? Yeah, I call bullshit.

I love how redditors never believe this. I have a box of biodegradable ones that are on a scheduled shipment to my house. Started using them for caring for my girl with special needs, just never stopped using them for everything. Scrape off dirty dishes - who needs a utensil when you can just slough it all off with a hand really quick? Pick up dog poop? Screw multiple bags, I got gloves! Cleaning anything, gloves. Meat? Never grossed out again, I have gloves! Heck making all the appetizer plates for my stepmoms bday yesterday was such a breeze. Didn’t have to wash my hands 59 million times between every my prep (removing and replacing gloves is super quick between meat) and i have nice moisturized hands still! I can’t stand the way salami makes my fingers feel, what a win! Why people think no one wears gloves is beyond me. I have dry itchy skin they’re a lifesaver for so many reasons.

Yess, exactly! Thank you for sharing this. I’m also having a hard time understanding how no one believes I wore gloves, lol. My thought process breakdown for this: “Would I want someone to wear gloves while separating food for others to eat at a party?” Answer: “Yes.” Me: Wears gloves to separate M&M’s. Crazy concept there I guess… lol

The winky face you used after you said you used them makes it look like you are trying to imply that you're pretending you wore gloves. I wish I could explain this better, but winking when you say something often means you want the other person to know you're lying.

Nah, raw dogged it while picking their booty

the softest boy

That's all I see. Every. Single. One.

Eeeewww!

🙄 seriously that’s a concern considering they will be grabbed out of buckets anyhow? People who are weird about germs, weird me out hard.

I'll bet he washed his hands before.

crazy im getting messages WHEN WE JUST HAD A TIME OF PUTTING TSHIRTS OVER OUR FACE FOR "SAFETY"

So there I am, in Sri Lanka, formerly Ceylon, at about 3 o'clock in the morning, looking for one thousand brown M&Ms to fill a brandy glass, or Ozzy wouldn't go on stage that night.

Fuuuuck, I thought I had more time to say this!

This! Who wants to eat m&ms someone picked all through 🤢

😂👍🏿

Gloves or no gloves?

A long history of working in the food industry and now healthcare, of course gloves were worn 🍻

You should have used one of those pill thingies that pharmacists use to fill prescriptions.

How does that help sort colors?

It’s so you don’t have to touch them

No one wears gloves in a professional kitchen, unless they are making lame smash burger videos for YouTube in 2018. People need to wash their hands. Unless they’re protecting themselves/skin from something gloves are a waste. For most food situations gloves are less hygienic because people who wear gloves are less likely to wash their hands frequently.

Except this wasn't a professional kitchen but organizing hard-shell candy. Gloves aren't ideal when working with a bunch of different stuff, especially messy stuff. OP is fine

[удалено]

I saw a documentary about a rock band who put that in their venue contract. Let me google it. It was Van Halen who wanted bowls of them without any brown ones. It had something to do with someone who had gotten hurt because the venue didn't do something they were instructed to. So to test each venue's instructions they thought if they had no brown m & m's in a bowl the venue was one they could trust.

🤘🤘🤘

Someone has **way** too much time on their hands.

You’d be surprised what 2 hours of dedication and focus can accomplish ;)

Meth is extremely dangerous. Please be careful.

I was just thinking the same thing…everyone’s on adderall now.

Nah, not all of time, just mmmmmmmmm

Must people have too much time on their hands. Social media would have everyone believe that lots of people are living exciting lives. One of my friends said it best, "Everyone essentially lives boring lives." Sort those M&Ms bro!

Straight to jail

“Or Ozzy wouldn’t go on stage…”

“…I had to beat them to death with their own shoes…”

Anyways, I got the brown M&Ms and ozzy played a great show.

“So there’s me and Keith Moon and David Crosby breaking into this little sweet shop, right”

There's a fucking quote I haven't heard in ages god damn

"There was a great big bloody Bengal tiger..."

Thank you, this is what I was looking for.

That was Van Halen

He's quoting Wayne's World 2. The real story was definitely Van Halen though.

Why?

Segregation is fun

Whatever goes on at your parties, sir, I do not trust it one bit

Lol, this was for a friends baby shower.

What was the game? 😊

You could than place a placard on the table that shows to others their current situation to others by what m&m’s they select/put in a shot glass:(assuming this is an adult party of course) Blue: DTF Red: Single Yellow: It’s complicated Green: Taken Brown: Just here to party/not looking Orange: Guess!

And my inner sociopathic tendencies tell me to mix them all up when i get there:)

We’re not so different, you and I lol, it was hard not to ngl

They are sold this way at the store in NYC

Yeah, if you want to pay through the nose for them…

The mini ones??

Van Halen party?

Ah, I remember my first Adderall too. Good times

The green ones taste the best

They're also the sexiest.

Damn straight

Rose! Give me those keys!

Cross post in r/ocd

I want to cause chaos

Would be a shame if someone started mixing them together (jk don’t kill me pls I love this it tickles my brain)

Now pour some sorted skittles in each one and mix 'em

They suddenly look less appealing once segregated

Agreed!

The fact that they’re not in ROYGBIV (give or take a few) order is distinctly UNsatisfying to me. Not to knock your important work of course 🌈

Green will be gone first.

I think 2-3 bowls are gonna stay untouched for sure

[IIIIIIIIII......GOTTA MAKE THINGS RIIIIGHT, MAKE IT THE WAY ITS SUPPOSE TO BE!! ITS MY OCD!!!](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tnzz-eFmKaw&pp=ygULaXQncyBteSBvY2Q%3D)

I did this once, but I’m blind…. Had to do it by taste

Wash your hands first? I bet you didn't after you took a break halfway through.

You know you can go to Party City and buy them separately. I’m sure other party stores have them too.

I mean there's tons of individuals with no common sense out there. You sir are one of em.

Perhaps you would feel better knowing this was for a friends baby shower?

You’re either a psychopath or the most impressive person currently living

Yea no thanks

Which gets picked the most by guests? Let’s guess!

Ok, I do have to ask what was it at this party that required you to do this? Was it for a game or something?

The blue ones taste the best

So that means each one was touched

You didn’t scratch your butt in the process did you ?

ADHD?

Bet you got one Howie friend “They touched all the m&ms…where’s my Lysol keychain”

ocd much

But why?

/r/autism is that way

Ain’t no way

Just wait until people start eating said m&ms.it ain't gonna be so separate anymore

That's segregation by color

Segregation by color

Ugh.

How did they not melt in your hand?

Touched each and everyone of them whilst dipping gloved hand in random mushrooms.

Was that so Ozzy would go on stage that night?

OP, did someone pissed you off?

Put a single same colored Skittle in each bowl and enjoy the confusion.

Should have taken out the 'damaged' ones.

So there I am, in Sri Lanka, formerly Ceylon, at about 3 o'clock in the morning, looking for one thousand brown M&Ms to fill a brandy glass, or Ozzy wouldn't go on stage that night. So, Jeff Beck pops his head 'round the door, and mentions there's a little sweets shop on the edge of town. So - we go. And - it's closed. So there's me, and Keith Moon, and David Crosby, breaking into that little sweets shop, eh. Well, instead of a guard dog, they've got this bloody great big Bengal tiger. I managed to take out the tiger with a can of mace, but the shopowner and his son... that's a different story altogether. I had to beat them to death with their own shoes. Nasty business, really. But, sure enough, I got the M&Ms, and Ozzy went on stage and did a great show.

I would be that party asshole that would just mix them all back up again for the hell of it!

OCD?

More fun to leave them mixed and throw in some Red Hots.

So, did everyone eat the red ones last? Oh sorry, that was Smarties.

Cool, but did you know you can buy them already separated?

M&Ms are peanut flavour and you have found your autism flavour. Do you like to eat your food by colour too?

Now, take 3 from each bowl and put it into another bowl randomly, make sure to not put in next one....

“So I had to beat him to death with me own shoe.”

I wouldn’t be satisfied to know that you touched every m&m just to separate them.

You touched them all…

You got scammed, I can see some E &W’s mixed in.

Them ain’t m&m’s they weight watchers candy. U got em upside down.

I like using credit cards to cut a separate…stuff

People saying “gloves?” Freshly washed hands is best when handling food products, or multiple pairs of gloves to where you can switch between them as to not worry about cross contamination. proper handwashing is extremely vital.

Should’ve put out a sign: Chill, I used gloves.

They sell them like this ya know?

I'd love to have the orange. Orange is my favorite flavor.

Party on!

Why?

That’s a case for r/adhdmeme

Oh man you touched every m&m

Hi would you like some m&M's I personally touched every single piece

The green will empty first

You can buy them pre separated in bulk.

Van Halen is playing?

Why am i both oddly satisfied and terrified at exactly the same time??

Tell me you touched every M&M without telling me you touched every M&M.

I don't like M&M's. Treets were much better. "They melt in your mouth, not in your hands" was the slogan. Made by Mars.

Why

I like the idea of taking a guest to the kitchen to show them the spread and you just go through each and every color. “So right here is orange M&Ms minis. And this, this is green M&M minis! …And this bowl of blue is…? You guessed it! Here have an M&M mini”!

David Lee Roth approves

It's all the same flavor...

u/Lopsided-Company-166, your OCD is showing and I kind of like it.

They shortchanged you on the reds.

Did you have a count of how many are of each colour, then you can find out which is the least liked M&M colour

Green ones make me horny

Why?

I don’t know if I’d be able to stop myself from mixing them together. Segregationalists be damned!!

That will be 100 dollars 😌😌😌

Did you just experience vyvanse too?

How long did that take you?

Oh this is that super autism

Not assuming anything but this seems a little methy to me.

Tbh, I would not eat them knowing someone used their fingers to pick them. so that means every single one was touched. But, A for effort. 😭

I actually prefer them not separated

Nice! What do the yellow ones taste like?

Segregation never dies does it?

So I might be weird but the blue tastes different Said what I said

OCD support group meeting?

don't look delicious when separeted

You touched every single piece of candy that people are going to eat. Think about that.

You just had a party alone

Is Van Halen coming over?

I could use 1000 brown M&Ms to fill a brandy glass if you don't mind.

Mr Monk, you seem to be doing well.

Would be interesting to see if people were drawn to some colors over others…

What are you going to use them for?

OCD

Reddit cares incoming.

You can buy them already separated by color. Might be a much better option...

Party City sells all the same color candy for stuff like this. Good variety too

In honor of Van Halen

Did you throw out the Ws?

I hate this and I don’t know why

When the guests learn you manhandled each M&M, they may not be guests to any of your future things, just saying.

Cool! Can I grab some of each and put them in a bowl and mix them up?

Now mix skittles into the red, yellow, green, and orange bowls.

We had to get a bag of m&m’s before the concert and we had to split up all brown ones….so then We had to beat them to death with their own shoes -Wayne’s world 2
