Pretzel M&M's and the return of the orange M&M guy!
Posted: Wednesday, June 23, 2010 by Admiral Snuggles in Labels: butts, reviewsI've seen a lot of shit in my life. Some of it good and some of it not so good. But one of the most troubling and emotionally scarring moments of my life was when I realized that they had stopped selling Crispy m&m's.
Crispy m&m's were simply m&m's with a small saucer shaped cracker/cookie in the middle almost like a rice krispie, the bottom line is that they were delicious. But they were taken away from us too soon, although there are rumors of them still being available in other countries like Australia.......lucky bastards. Cripsy m&m's also introduced us to the "Orange" spokescandy.
Now we all know that "The Red M&M" is the one with an attitude and that "The Yellow Peanut M&M" is the retarded one, but what's "The Orange M&M" all about. I mean what's his deal? Well he's the paranoid M&M. I mean just look how startled he is. The reason he's so paranoid is because everyone wants to eat him because he is so delicious. Even the other m&m's! He also has the honor of almost being eaten by Halle Berry. I mean people die from horrible things all the time being eaten by Halle Berry isn't so bad in comparison. In one commercial Diedrich Bader ate his whole fucking family! You're damn right he's paranoid. Well anyway, Crispy m&m's went off the shelves and so did the Mr. Orange M&M.
Until..............
They made M&M's with fucking pretzels in them! THERE ARE PRETZELS IN THEM DAMMIT! They aren't crispy m&m's but they're the next best thing and even better they brought The Orange M&M back to be their spokescandy. Now you may be thinking "Now wait a second I thought he was a crispy m&m, how can this be the same orange m&m?" Well smartypants, according to the commercial they surgically removed the cookie out of him and replaced it with a pretzel. So there you go!
The candy itself is actually really good. The m&m's are bigger than normal, almost the size of a peanut m&m with a large piece of pretzel in the center. Basically it boils down to this, chocolate + pretzel = good. It's basic science and it applies to other things like chocolate+chicken and milk+ spaghetti sauce. At the moment I can only really find them at Wal-Mart and Sam's club. So do yourself a favor and go out to one of those stores and buy yourself a pack actually buy a whole box. But most of all it's good to have you back Orange M&M......it's good to have you back.
Check out these commercials!
"Crispy M&M's" are finally coming back to almost each and every fine retailers anywhere in the U.S. market as one of the five most-popular varieties of M&M's Milk Chocolate Candies, replacing the Pretzel M&M's variety that lasted only for a limited-time period of over 1 1/2 years. The "Orange M&M" character - voiced by Eric Kirchberger in "M&M's Milk Chocolate Candies" advertisements - is finally having his giant pretzel center inside to be invisible, and by melting back down into his own crispiness.
Almost all 150 of the M&M's Milk Chocolate Candies commercials were being filmed between July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2016, and they were being shown on almost every U.S. TV channel and in movie theatres anywhere nationwide between January 2012 and December 2016 (30 of them were being shown each year, with almost 5 of them being shown each and every 2 months). In all 150 M&M's Milk Chocolate Candies commercials, viewers can hear the M&M characters talk, whereas human characters and real-life people appear in half of these commercials where they can be heard in all-vocal talents and also seen communicating in facial expressions and other parts of body language. Here are the actors who'll reprise their voice-over roles as any of the following M&M's characters in these commercials.
* Billy West - "Red M&M" (Milk Chocolate M&M's mascot)
* J.K. Simmons - "Yellow M&M" (Peanut M&M's mascot)
* Cree Summer - "Ms. Green M&M" (Peanut Butter M&M's mascot)
* Robb Pruitt - "Blue M&M" (Almond M&M's mascot)
* Eric Kirchberger - "Orange M&M" (Crispy M&M's mascot)
