Find the M&M premiums commercials somewhat morbid..

why would a M&M make a commercial about eating "higher end" M&Ms

why do the smaller M&M candies not have personalities...

It's disturbing that M&Ms are cannibals... are the small M&Ms that they eat babies? or maybe another race of M&Ms that they were maybe born without appendages .. so they are viewed as so low in an M&M society that they have become food..

lol just something that always strikes me as weird whenever i see those commercials

What drugs are you on Tiny,

M&M's are sweet's and nothing but sweet's,

They can't walk,Talk, or eat each other.
What ever your on ,

i think you should share

TinyGiant · 12-23-2008, 02:12 AM

lol i realize they arent really walking/talking..

just the idea for the commercial doesnt seem kosher lol

(no drugs here) lol just and observation

YAR1S · 12-23-2008, 02:15 AM

As in, who's behind the counter? just employees really, labor's cheap enough that the store owners rarely have to work

Bob_VT · 12-23-2008, 09:28 AM

It actually seems like (here I go doing the stereotype thing) people from India now own and run most of them .......... actually there are none in VT.

TinyGiant · 12-23-2008, 10:09 AM

eTiMaGo- do you have the crispy M&Ms over there.. they discontinued them here but i tend to see them on ebay in asia.. if you happen to see them LMK i'll pay you to get me a bunch and ship them over. My sister in law was addicted to those.. then they stopped selling them over here...

The premium ones are like $5-6 for like a hand full of them ..never felt spendy enough to buy any to try them

there is nothing wrong with stereotypes if its true lol..

Rain · 12-23-2008, 10:28 AM

I thought about that too.. but then you also have the talking waffles commercial, the cereal that talks, etc... I don't approve of getting my food animated. lol.

TinyGiant · 12-23-2008, 10:39 AM

i eat animals.. so i dont mind food that has movement and personality :)

Shroomster · 12-23-2008, 11:04 AM

I never saw it as that I don't think making the M&M's appear 'sexy' is the right way to go about marketing them.....

and another sidenote to TINY....have you seen if Dorito's 3D are still made anywhere?
