Anyone care to settle an argument about M&M's?!


Question: Anyone care to settle an argument about M&M's!?
i was enjoying some Mini M&M's at work yesterday and mentioned how they taste so much better than their larger bretheren!. my coworker looked at me as though i had lobsters coming out of my ears and said they taste exactly the same!.

do you believe there is a significant difference between the two!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
What a great word picture that is - lobsters coming out of my ears - I laughed out loud!! I will have to remember that one!.

The smaller ones taste better - I agree with you - your co-worker can go suck on a lobster claw!!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Oh yeah!.!.!.they do taste different!.!.!.although I prefer the original big ones!. The smaller ones are sweeter I think!.!.!.maybe more candy and less chocolate!. Maybe your coworkers palate is not as sensitive as ours!.!.!.and they do taste the same to him!. You also didn't mention if you were wearing lobster barettes yesterday :)Www@FoodAQ@Com

I hope you bet a nice lunch, my Dear, because you are absolutely correct! Tell your friend she needs to concede on this one!.!.!.the coating ratio changes the overall taste!.!.!.and YOU are one smart cookie!.

Most people either gobble them too quickly or are not too observant!.!.!.my son recently commented the same thing to me about the Mini's after I bought a bunch of them for him to hand out to his friends while they were at our house for a youth group event!. They're his "new favorite" candy!Www@FoodAQ@Com

I think because they are smaller, there are different amounts of candy and chocolate than the larger ones!. also, being able to put 100 in your mouth, makes for a tasty bite!.!.!.lol!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It's the ratio of hard candy to chocolate that make them taste different, otherwise, the formula is exactly the same!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yes!! The mini ones have a larger ratio of hard candy to soft chocolate and I enjoy them about ten times more than the large plain ones!. They taste sweeter to me!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

The mini's have a higher shell to chocolate ratio!. Sounds like your coworker has an attitude problem!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I like the bigger ones better myself cause theres more chocolate, and I am LOVIN the new premium versions! But yes there is a differenceWww@FoodAQ@Com

They taste different to me too! My 4 y/o is sure it's because some of them have "w's" on them, not just the "m's" like the bigger ones!Www@FoodAQ@Com

yes i do agree bacause personaly i belive that the smaller m&ms are softer than the bigger m&ms
thats just what i think and thats why i like the smaller ones better
yum!!!Www@FoodAQ@Com

The textures are different ; the recipe is the same!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Huge difference!. Why else would they make them!? Minis are much sweeter and the normal ones have a more chocolaty taste!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yes the mini's are so much better!.!.!.!.thats like saying milk chocolate m&ms taste the same as dark chocolate m&msWww@FoodAQ@Com

No, they taste the same to me!. The bigger ones have more chocolate but that's it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I think it may be because of the amount you put in your mouth!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

not personally!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You are correct!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I think you are rightWww@FoodAQ@Com

the texture is diff which might taste diff to us cause of the way it is when u bite into them!.!.!.i love small or big love m&m's!.!.plainWww@FoodAQ@Com

you are right!. co-worker is wrong!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
