I used to tip out the Smarties onto a table. I would then arrange them into columns, according to colour.
Then, Smarties would be eaten according to these rules:
a) from the longest column;
b) unless it was the same colour as last time in which case it has to be the next longest column.
Eventually there would be an equal number of each colour represented. These could then be put back in the tube and the tube resealed. I would then be happy that my tube was a fair tube.
I have done that for as far back as I can remember.
That means either:
a) I am very non-colour prejudiced
or
b) My compulsive-obsessive behaviour started at a very young age.
