So, you are presented with a freshly-opened bag of classic gummy bears so no worries about stealing the last of someone else's favorite. Which one do you go for first?
I vote Orange, humble king of all gummies. It's not been unheard of for me to grab a random one blindly though.

I prefer their death screams rather than their taste.
Just kidding that rather sadistic, no I reach for the clear ones because they're the ones you would expect to have the most neutral flavour which is good to warm up my pallete.
If I had to choose....either Red or Orange. I sometimes grab a stack of three, a red,yellow and green then eat them all at once. But usually it's just grab a handful and wolf them down as fast as possible.
I voted yellow as well, though I do happen to feed indiscriminately sometimes.
Also, hats off to Cannerus for starting such a randomly genius thread.

For what very little it's worth, I had a complete ruleset for a gummy bear-based combat game. It was more about grabbing locations than anything else and each location had "presents" you could get if you met certain conditions like chatter teeth that would give an extra attack, face paint to change your, a lollipop with a fuse called a "lollibomb." The idea was that if you saw a demo table with plastic gummy bears and that many bright colors, you couldn't say no to giving it a try.
Edit: One of my favorite additions were the worms as heavy units and swedish fish as fast strikers. The idea was to have the worm segments just be halves so you could mix and match colors

That isn't sugar, it's cornflour and the composition is totally different.
Jelly babies have an almost rigid outer layer and a grainy jelly (jello) like interior
Woah, that sounds bizarre. Is this a British or American invention?

Yes, they were invented after one of the world wars, I forget which. Used to be called Victory Babies. What better way to celebrate peace than eating babies?
