    I bought one about twenty minutes ago, and I am eating it slowly.

    So far I've had,

    Green - Green

    and the next one is Green too.

    Green is not my favourite, but it is not my least favourite (that would be yellow).

    I want some reds and blacks dammit.

    The last time I had fruit pastilles, one pulled a filling out :(. I'm too scared to eat them anymore.

    Same, but black before red. I think.

    My flatmate left a packet of Fruit Pastilles on the counter. Now I really really really want to eat them :(

    I once had a packet of them where all but one were green. The last one in the pack was orange. Black and yellow are the nicest.

    You'd think so, but they managed it!

    (Perhaps the filling was already on its last legs?)

    i can totally see pastilles taken out fillings if the fillings are on their on their last legs.
