Green M&Ms (Valentine’s Day Contest Submission)

These are bags of green M&Ms for Valentine’s Day. Why green and not red or pink? It is because of the decades old rumor that green M&Ms are an aphrodisiac. Rather then shy away from the rumor the company has now decided to run with it and put out bags of nothing but the green ones.

    This is another product I can’t believe I missed. These are completely insane! Is this a current product, i.e. do they still do this every Valentine’s Day? if so, I need to get to the store NOW!!

    I love that M&M’s would have a slogan like ” The New Color of Love”. (I understandably thought the color of love was PURPLE.) I never knew green was an aphrodisiac color. I may just go outside and munch on some grass now.

    there’s something disturbing about the m&m lady’s arms…one looks way too thick and the other looks like a crooked stick…and what’s up with the four fingers and the rubber/latex glove thing?

    There was another urban legend about green M&M’s from the entertainment biz: famous supergroups from the 70’s ordered large servings of M&M’s with all the green ones taken out for their backstage area following each show.

      I would’ve thought that green would be the color everyone would want to see. I’d certainly like to see more popping out of MY wallet!
