Leftover candy

So I've been eating leftover Halloween candy, specifically Starbursts and Skittles, and I just have to say I think something fishy is going on with the distribution of flavors. I've expressed my frustration at the randomness of Skittles candy flavors before, but I'm really irritated now. The past two packages of Skittles had not one red one in it, and everyone knows the red ones are the best. Perhaps a strawberry Skittle shortage? And speaking of red ones, I one had a boyfriend who bought two 2 lb. bags of Skittles, separated the red ones, and gave them to me as part of a Valentine's Day gift. If that's not love, I don't know what is.

The Starbursts weren't much better. With two to a pack, you'd think they could manage to pair up something other than the yellows and oranges. Where are all the red and pink ones?! Like I said, something fishy's going on.
