Color blinded

I was just at a store last night and passed by the candy rack. As I kept walking, I started thinking that maybe there was a new flavour of M&M's and I should try them (because I hadn't eaten dinner and candy is ALWAYS good). When I went back to the rack, I got a better look and all they had done is changed the damn color (they're temporarily black and white for a new promotion). So, I just bought the regular almond ones instead. Screw you, marketing execs at Mars Candy, and your dirty tricks!

Candy for dinner? You haven't changed a bit. Do you still eat whole boxes of stovetop in one sitting?

Yup.

It's good to see you're staying away from Nestle.

it's an old promotion that's about to end. the new m&ms are supposed to be brighter than ever and they are slowly being delivered to stores across the country. the ms will be bigger too.

also, while the b&w m&ms were around, there was a contest - there were a handful of bags that were marked b&w but inside they were colored, and if you found them, you won something really big. not all of the bags were found. they'll probably be found but by the time they are, the contest will be over (i think that it is already).
