Remember the rumors about green M&Ms?

[emeleel]

Looks like the company's going to have some fun this year with those old rumors:

Mars Snackfood U.S. is proclaiming green the new color of love
this Valentine's Day as the brand celebrates the myths, rumors
and innuendo surrounding green M&M'S® Chocolate Candies. In
support of this bold and fun declaration, retail establishments
across the country will display limited edition all-green
M&M'S® amidst a sea of traditional red and pink products.
Consumers can find the all-green M&M'S® in packages from
January 2008 through the Valentine's holiday.

Wished they would have done this years ago. Would have saved a lot of time sorting.

I saw these in the store the last time I went grocery shopping. Interesting marketing campaign possibilities...

They've played to these rumors in the past too. Remember when they anthropomorphized the M&Ms and they made them all male except the green one? She had white go-go boots and she was a flirt.

I saw those today! Green ones are my favorite - I almost bought a bag!

Why wouldn't they keep them out through St. Patty's Day.

[lynnzop[$]]

I'd eat those.

Lynn, we got one of those color stations at our Wegman's. I was hoping I'd get you... I was going to make you a mixed bag of blue and LIGHT blue.

LOL...Wormie did that to me last year as a joke...she gave me a whole ziplock sandwich bag of blue M&Ms. I turned around and crapped them to Margo, and her kids wanted to eat them, but her husband was horrified...I think he said something along the lines of "you don't know where those have been!"

[pippadaisy[$]]

I know, but she had to pick them out BY HAND! I wanted to do a custom mix. And then you WOULD know where they've been... a tube at Wegman's.

He is just a wierdo.

It's not like I licked them or anything!!!!

[jgibson2[$]]

And you probably even washed your hands before you started picking them.

I actually wore gloves!

Like my kids would care! It was freakin' chocolate. I'm trying to think if we got them back out of the trash and ate them anyway. I can't remember but I think we talked about it.

you're husband is a chocolate abuser.
throwing away perfectly good blue chocolate
I mean - just because you only know me as an online worm, doesn't mean that I'm wierd or dangerous.
