OT: M & Ms Candy Poll

Hey everyone! WHERE are y'all hiding out at? Hopefully your weather is warm & sunny and y'all are out enjoying some sunshine!

As many of you know, I'm a huge NASCAR fan and one of my favorite drivers (Kenny Schrader) drives the #36 M&M's Pontiac. I received an e-mail through the fan club that M&M/Mars is running a global poll to allow their consumers to vote for a new color addition to the current M&M's!

The website is really cute--there are even e-cards that you can send! Check it out and vote for your favorite! :o)

It was a toss-up between pink and aqua and I finally went with aqua. I could not vote for the dreaded purple as that is one of the colors of one our arch-rivals, the WA huskies (boo, hiss).
Go Ducks!

Well, I won't tell that I voted for purple then I would hate to offend my MIL...

I have a question about these M & M polls - I know that when you buy them in the store you only get a couple colors. So is the poll to add a new color to those? You do all realize that M & M's actually come in 21 colors? I was just at the M & M store in Las Vegas and it is SOOOO cool to see the wall of all the colors :-)

I thought the usual package of M&M's had red, yellow, green, tan, and brown, and then blue was added a couple years ago. On special occasions other colors would be available, such as pastels for Easter. I've never seen a bag with 21 colors in it! That must be cool.
As for the indiscretion of your purple vote DIL, I guess that can be overlooked... ;)

I also voted on purple. It would be cool to actually get a bag with all the colors in it.

At the store you can fill up as much as you want! There is a huge bag (don't know how many pounds) you can fill up with whatever you want! (Of course, you can have more than one bag if you want - and it is $8 for a bag). Then the M & M's are in these big huge plastic tubes on the wall in order of color. They have both the plain and the peanut, so there were 42 in all! Kinda like Baskin Robbins, eh??? LOL!!! Oh and they also have a 10min. mini video which was pretty cute - AND a replica of Kenny's car up on the top floor (it is 4 stories). Pretty cool place :-)

Thanks for voting for your favorite colors, Ladies!

Most everyone that I've heard back from has voted for purple! ;o)

What's really neat is that Kenny Schrader's car will sport the winning color at one of the August races! One things for certain, I'll be able to spot him on the track right away during that race! LOL!!!!

I voted the other day(sorry, I picked purple, it's my favorite color) I did search around the web site and saw all the other colors. I didn't know some that were offered. I think a regular bag has brown, yellow,green,red,blue(tan was taken out a few tears ago. I han't even noticed.)The new one will be added to that bag.
