as someone who has kept track of their skittles color distribution over the course of a year, I can attest that there can be wide fluctuations in distribution percentages.
I wish I had kept all the numbers, but IIRC, the "typical" bag would have roughly 55-60 skittles, so the "average" color would have 11 skittles. It was common to see a single color with only 9 skittles. I can't recall ever having a bag have one color with less than 7 of any one color, but I would have on occasional see one color get as many as 18 of one color.
