which is better, M&Ms or Skittles??

M&M's!!

Skittles suck.

M&M's totally!!!!!! (Just not the Crispy kind though - I really love the peanut butter kind) I do like skittles, but I had much rather have M&M's!

I love Skittles. All of the delicious flavors. Well, I'm 12, so what can you expect? A lot of my friends love Skittles.

thats exactly whats wrong with todays youth.
skittles.... :rolleyes:

m&ms are PLAIN. the different colors are misleading and I find it to be false advertising. If I see red, I expect a cherry taste, if I see yellow, I want a lemon taste. For that reason, I prefer skittles.

As Skittles has, I also expect red to be strawberry.

M&M here :biglove:

M&M's...skittles are okay, but they kind of gross me out sometimes...

M&M's, but not the ones with peanuts.

M&Ms WITH peanuts. Yum! In fact I have some in the house right now!

fools fools fools

M&M's all the way! :rock:

Skittles suck. :D

M&M's. Skitttles get all stuck in my teeth. I like chocolate better anyway.

I like M&Ms just a little better.

M&Ms but then again I LOVE Chocolate :)

Skittles. The only M&Ms I like are peanut butter and crispy but Skittles are much more tastier.

M&Ms

M&M's, especially the one's with peanuts.

I like skittles better because all of the differnt colors taste differnt unlike m&ms. :D :D :D :D

I prefer Skittles because I like their fruit flavor! I also like spree!

M&M's!! I never could get into Skittles.

M&Ms all the way. Skittles are a little weird for me. Don't know why

I like M&M more.

Skittles. I'm not a huge chocolate fan.

****tles.

M&Ms all the way :D Not the peanut ones, just regular 'ol M&Ms ;)

mandms

Depends on my mood but I voted for Skittles. I like how they make your spit multicolored. :D

skittles

Skittles......because I've eaten them more than I have M&M's. In fact I think I've only eaten M&M's about three times in my whole life so far.

I perfer skittles, im not much of a Cholocate person..sorry if i spelt that wrong.

M&M's all the way

M&M's for life, yo :D


I like Skittles, but I can't live without M&M's. Fruity things tend to make me sick, and chocolate doesn't.

M&Ms rule!!!! :rock: :guitar:

M&Ms! Skittles make my teeth feel like crap. And there's just something appealing about the superficiality of eating colored chocolate. I've actually tried to convince myself that the red ones taste better...you can actually taste the colors....:rainbow:

I say M&Ms!

m&ms bring le chocolat

Eh, I can't eat either one. :(

M&M's

Eh, I can't eat either one. :(

Sorry about that! :(

M&M's...skittle juice after you chew for awhile kind of makes me sick.

M&Ms

Sorry about that! :(
It's okay. :)

It's okay. :)

Did you say before that you had diabetes?

M&M's :liplick:

I voted for "Sorry, can't decide." Overall, I say both. It all depends on my mood as well. If I feel like something chocolate-y and in tiny pieces, then I choose M&Ms. If I feel like popping some small fruity candy into my mouth, then I go for Skittles.

As far as sugar-free M&Ms and Skittles - why haven't they made them yet? I'm surprised, actually, as they are both popular candy.

I will tell you from experience that sugar free candy is not that great of an idea. I ate 5 sugar free peppermints at one time, and later on had Diarhea for the rest of the day. Later on I read the bag, and it said to be careful because if you consume too many they work as laxatives. I mean would anybody really only eat 2-3 M&Ms and Skittles?

You're right about the laxatives. I hadn't thought about it. I purchased those low carb Pepper Mint patties, and I do recall reading about the cautious over excessive consuming warning.

Bulimics - listen up - a good tasting laxative where you can binge on it and then use it to purge afterwards!!! :woohoo: :lol:


I went with Skittles. Love them (but can't eat them anymore because of my teeth).

I like Smarties a LOT better than M&Ms!! Don't think you can get them in the States - but they're a much better chocolate in them. Like the M&M dudes in the commercials tho! ;)

We have smarties, but they're not chocolate :grr:

Sweet Tarts are better than those, though.

I picked M&M's (especially the peanut ones!) Skittles are good but they hurt my jaw too much.

That depends, are we talking Peanut M&M's or Skittles? Definetly Peanut M&M's.

However, I prefer Skittles over regular M&Ms.

Anybody like Penut Butter M&M's ?

M&M's! I've tried Skittles, but I don't really like them. Actually, I just had some M&M's tonight! They were good..

They're not? What are they then? Ours look a little flatter than M&Ms, have the coloured candy coating, but milk chocolate inside. Used to be that each coating tasted differently, but now they're all the same taste (still the old way in Britain from what I understand tho).

Yeah - Sweetarts rock. Also like those candy necklaces - :lol:

M&M's. Peanut.

Skittles can make your teeth hurt!

both! You can't really compare either, because they're so different! One is chocolate and the other is fruity.

skittles most of the time.

That's not as bad as what I read on a pack of Trident sugar-free gum. I can't read it all because the wrapper is torn up, but it says:

Use of this product may be hazardous to your health...
... which has been determined to cause cancer.

I don't know what it says in the middle, but I think it might be Sorbitol. I don't know for sure.

I said M&M

We have smarties, but they're not chocolate :grr:

Sweet Tarts are better than those, though.
Ew, I used to eat Smarties like there was no tomorrow when I was a kid. Now it gives me nausea if I eat it...Hell, looking at that pic made the nausea creep up on me. :barf: I don't know why...:crazy:


Anyway, I like reg. M&M's. Never liked Skittles, altho I do like their gum.

can't decide (love 'em both :D )

Is that a pic of what smarties are in America? :eek: Smarties in Australia are totally different. There like M&Ms except they have pink and purple, they're flatter and they're a tad sweeter. Also, they're chocolate. :)

Yeah!!! That's what they are in Canada too - nothing like what's shown in that picture -- those look like what we call "Rockets" (only Rockets are smaller and seen mostly at Halloween). Here's a pic of Canadian Smarties - if you're ever up here, you've got to try them - you'll love them I swear!

I found a great website that gives all the scoop and why the difference between Smarties in the UK/Australia/Canada and the U.S.:

http://www.classaxe.com/smarties/
Smarties are milk chocolate discs 8mm across and 3.5mm thick in the middle, coated in a crisp sugary shell and come in many colours.

FACT: Smarties were invented by Rowntrees in York (UK) in 1937 and were sold for 2d (old pennies) a time. Nestle bought the company (by then called Rowntrees Macintosh after an earlier merger) in 1988. Click here for supporting evidence for this claim.

Today, Nestles make Smarties at:
York (U.K - 530,000 tubes a day!), Czechia, Hamburg (Germany), Toronto (Canada), East London (South Africa), Melbourne (Australia), Thailand and Malaysia where they produce special "Halal approved" Smarties!
If you live in the USA you know Smarties as a different product entirely to the rest of us. This is because the UK company Rowntree's sold the Smarties name to an American company a long time ago. This is WHY you can't get what the rest of the world call "Smarties" in the USA - unless you buy from on of the firms with links later on this page. To see what Smarties means to someone from the USA, visit their web site: http://www.smarties.com.

This is what the box looks like in Canada. I understand they're sold in tubes almost everywhere else.

I'm the same way...actually, I've ALWAYS despised Smarties...they are so gross!


Ew, I used to eat Smarties like there was no tomorrow when I was a kid. Now it gives me nausea if I eat it...Hell, looking at that pic made the nausea creep up on me. :barf: I don't know why...:crazy:

M&M's Fa' Sho'

I'm the same way...actually, I've ALWAYS despised Smarties...they are so gross!


They LOOK gross! I checked out that website and blllllaaaahhhhh!

If you're ever in Canada or have a friend going, grab a box of the Nestle Smarties - I guarantee you'll like them - and probably more than M&Ms

And P.S. - they say you should always eat the red ones last.....but I save the blues!

I bought some sugar free Cream Savers and they said the same thing. I was like...eww! And compared to the regular ones...they were a lot smaller too.


Oh, and I hate M&Ms except for the peanut butter ones. Yuck.

Anybody like Penut Butter M&M's ?

Yumm. Only way I'll eat them.

lol...that reminds me. Didn't blue M&Ms used to cause cancer or something? Or was it the red ones?

M&Ms can cause cancer??!! :eek:

Skittles.

lol...that reminds me. Didn't blue M&Ms used to cause cancer or something? Or was it the red ones?


That's a new one to me!! I had only heard the rumours about the "green" ones!!! :lol: :lol:

Come on people...this is not a hard decision! M&Ms----with CHOCOLATE----or plain skittles with no happy, wonderful, yummy in the tummy, make-you-feel-better chocolate?! I loooove M&Ms...mainly the peanut ones because it's double the value--peanuts AND chocolate. :D

M&Ms

I clicked I HATE BOTH!!


Before 2000 Mars made thier candy with WHOLE MILK and I loved M&MS and ate them by the pound!

Now they are made with SKIM MILK and do not taste as good......

Although THE PEANUT BUTTER ones are made with WHOLE MILK!!


I just dont understand why there isnt another company who makes M&MS!!! (Who might use whole Milk still)


They are forcing this SKIM MILK garbage on everyone!! :mad:

I voted for liking both.

I voted M & M's - I don't like Skittles

SKittles all the way

M&Ms

M&Ms
