Why, when you buy a mixed bag of Jolly Ranchers, are there no cinnamon flavored ones in the bag?

Cinammon constitutes too differing of a flavor from the fruit flavors. If they all had a party and decided to unwrap, we'd have a disaster on our hands.

Is this the kind of thing that goes on at your parties, Randy? 
Cinnamon cannot just intermingle with the regular fruit flavors--unless that flavor is apple. There are rules about these things.
Good day: that day long ago that Jelly Belly decided to sell their flavors separately.

The only mystery is why you eat them in the first place. Everyone knows the only Jolly Ranchers worth eating are the watermelon ones. The sole reason they make mixed bags is so you can horde the watermelon ones for yourself and put the rest in a bowl on your desk, thus giving the impression you actually care about your co-workers.

There, that's better. Watermelon Jolly Ranchers are nasty.

Well, they are certainly not my first choice, but well ahead of cinnamon at any rate.

I guess I really don't belong here. I like the apple. Even more than the watermelon. Peach is good. Cherry are sucky. Cinnamon rocks.

See, that is why we would make great cow-orkers. A different fruit flavor preference for every Riff Raffer.
Except for poor Joe, since they don't make pizza flavored Jolly Ranchers.

Apple is second only to cinnamon. The rest are what you put out on your desk.
