In a hilarious experiment the anonymous mathematician behind the website Possibly Wrong estimated that s/he only needed to open “about 400-500” packs of Skittles to find an identifical pack.
From January 12th up to April 6th, s/he put it to the test and counted the contents of an astonishing 468 packs, containing over 27.000 individual Skittles! Read all about the experiment here.
