For example:

When you open a fresh jar of peanut butter do you only work through one side until it is completely empty then start on the other side?
Or when you get those shallow tubs of hummus does it have to make it back home undisturbed? Then one of the baggers at the grocery store shoves it sideways into the bag completely ruining the symmetry.

When I eat soft candies, I always have to bite them into pieces in a specific way. Like if I have a cola bottle gummy, I will bite off the "cap" first. If I have a gummy bear, I will bite the bottom legs off, separate the head from the arms and then split the legs and arms from each other. The gummy cherries, always bite the stem off first. Gummy bats, the wings separate from the body. Gummy coins I usually try to split down the circle, i.e. splitting in two thinner coins.

Most of the time it's just inside my mouth but sometimes I hold it in my hand and bite it off like that.

Also chocolate bars has to be eaten in the squares the bar is divided into. No splitting it across squares!

Bite their legs off first so they can't run. Smart.

I read the first few words as soft candles and was so confused.
