I like both but if I can only choose 1 it has to be plain.

Years ago a question was put out as to why there weren't any blue M&Ms?
The basic response was 'because they would look like Smurf poop'.
So, guess what? They do look like Smurf poop. Ha.

You've never had a frozen Snickers? Oh you poor poor man.
If you give it a try, and you really should, use a regular size candy bar. The little snack size just don't feel right - they're too big to throw them all in your mouth at once, and too small to hold onto when you're biting a piece off. And the giant size are just too big period.
Plain, I believe in the KISS principal!

old urban legend that the green ones make you horny -
Apparently, green has been considered a symbol of fertility for ages, and in the 15th century it was even the traditional color for wedding attire. Van Halen then famously fueled the rumors by requesting that bowls of green M&Ms be present in their dressing rooms. Mars Candy / Via pinterest.com Do you remember the rumor?
We have the winner!
I thought the issue was the green ones just weren't ripe, yet...
Peanut is preferred, but I've recently discovered the hazelnut filled version (they're tasty).

For maximum effect, get the dark chocolate covered peanut variety.

I love chocolate. I love peanuts. However, I DO NOT like them together!
I voted for plain, obviously.
An old-time doctor made a house call to an old man. While he was sitting next to the man's bed, he noticed a dish of peanuts on the nightstand. He started eating them, and when he had eaten half the bowl, he apologized for it. The old man said, "That's okay, I only suck the chocolate off them anyway."

Peanut for me. I wish they made Macadamia nut M&M's. But they'd probably be $5 a small bag.

Plain, red only. M&M Peanut is evil.

Why ...oh why , did they change the coating on M&Ms ?
Used to be a harder thicker candy shell , now they are just smarties by another name
I first heard about M&Ms in the novel ,"terror at sea" a story about the last days of the Indianapolis
In the story the enlisted men were angry that the officers had bought all the M&Ms at the PX as these candies were the only ones that did not melt in the oppressive heat .
I was about 11 i guess , had to try them and they were great ! Replaced jelly beans as my favourite
different from what we are offered today , id rather have jelly beans now
Edit to add: plain ones please

No, never heard that rumor, nor do I follow trivia about rock bands. The only reason I know who Adam Levine of Maroon Five married is because it's VS Angel Behati Prinsloo. I'm a VS groupie, ha!
I associate green with Robin Hood or German hunting attire and forests, inc. jungles. Oh: I have seen girls in their 20's dressed for Halloween as Tinker Bell. That had your "green effect" on me...
I thought that rock stars used their guitars as macho symbols. Didn't realize they'd need M&M's to allude to their prowess.

Have you tried Jelly Belly jelly beans? They became famous after President Reagan kept a jar on his desk. Pretty good!

Spook-
You know where I live. Where would I find the hazelnut ones? Do you get them at HEB? Via Amazon?
You know that I love Lindt & Sprungli chocolate with hazelnuts. And their Intense Orange bars.
That was cute about the green ones not being ripe yet.
Dad
Put me down for the Peanut Butter version.

Spook 76 may recall the time I asked his sister's (my daughter)
boyfriend if he knew the difference between eminence and imminence. He'd just said something that triggered that question.
He thought briefly and replied, "I think one is plain and the other has peanuts."

Would you like to guess where and how many M&Ms are made?
My Son works in the maintenance department at our local plant in Cleveland, TN...
The plant produces over 300 million M&Ms per day.. it is the largest producer in the world!
They also make Twix...
