Kevin Bresnahan Posted May 9, 2004 Report Share Posted May 9, 2004 Oh man!! Are these things heaven! To promote "Shrek2", M&M's has come out with over-sized M&M's. They call them "ogre-sized". Sooo much chocolate. I haven't had M&M's this good in 41 years. My mouth is watering just thinking about more. I have to get more. I may have to buy out the whole store. Anyone on a diet who's a chocolate freak must avoid these things at all cost! Must resist... can't reach for the bag... no... no... I'll balloon up to whale proportions... ahhhh!! Murmph... smack... mmphf Kevin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z-Man Posted May 9, 2004 Report Share Posted May 9, 2004 Do they come in peanut also? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachel Posted May 9, 2004 Report Share Posted May 9, 2004 (edited) I'll sign that petition!! OK.... where are they?! Who's hiding them?! Who ate them all?! I want 'em!! Just because of the fact that they are called "ogre-sized" makes me love them even more... I remember as a child eating candy called "Kooky Cocoa" or something like that. Two huge M&M type candies in a pack. Each one was approximately 2.5 inches in diameter, and they were awesome. Are Ogre-sized M&M's that big?

Kevin Bresnahan Posted May 9, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2004 Do they come in peanut also? Yes, they do! What to do? I may go back to my store and buy about 10 bags of each and stash them in the cupboard.... These are good and it won't take long before the chocoholics like myself realize this. They will sell out of these in no time. BTW, "ogre-sized" to M&M/Mars means about 1/3 bigger but oh, that extra 1/3 is all chocolate.

BruceH Posted May 9, 2004 Report Share Posted May 9, 2004 Only 1/3 bigger is "ogre-sized"? Still, they sound good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Bresnahan Posted May 10, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 They're in Walmart! Now I can get 'em cheap. I picked up a bag of the peanut version yesterday but I was way over my recommended daily allowance for chocolate so I haven't opened it yet. M&M's and port wine go together like Abbot & Costello.

rachel Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 Kevin~ Are you able to get anything else done beside scouring the landscape looking for these things? I feel like we need to do some type of intervention. (but thanks for the Walmart tip--I still haven't been able to find any, so Walmart is on my list today...)

Kevin Bresnahan Posted May 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 Well, last night I popped open the bag of ogre-sized peanut M&M's. While better than regular-sized peanut M&M's, they were nowhere near as good as the ogre-sized regular M&M's. I also bought 3 more bags of the chocolate ones at Walmart. I plan to stash them in a nice cool dark place and crack one every now & then. How long does chocolate keep anyway? I wrote M&M/Mars using their "Contact Us" link at their web site and it's been 4 days without even an acknowledgement! Maybe I should find an M&M web site and drum up support for my petition with some other chocoholics? Later, Kevin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachel Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 How long does chocolate keep anyway? Well.... I know someone who, while in the midst of PMS, has eaten an M&M found on the floor of her car, date of freshness unknown and probably very expired. Taking a walk on that wild side.....

Aggie87 Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 I hope this ain't the inside of your car... ...or else you that m&m may start causing you to hallucinate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachel Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 (edited) OK Aggie, now you're pissing me off . (inside joke, everybody...) No, my car is a little more, er, tidy than that.

Aggie87 Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 The floor of this car is probably cleaner than my whole home! I'm sure the m&m's would be fine! : ...and they'd go great with the Scotch!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
