Subject: Please help in my quest!

Written By: Dude111 on 11/09/07 at 7:27 pm

I used to love m-ms candies (THE PLAIN KIND) but,in the year 2000,they changed the recipe from using WHOLE MILK to using SKIM MILK,MILKFAT and they taste terrible...

Have you noticed a change in the way they taste,you dont really like them anymore??? Well,this is why........ (Anyone that cant tell a difference in taste is messed up (Which i've heard so many times since i've started this quest))

Im going crazy trying to get the company to change it back to the original (I DONT KNOW WHY THESE STUPID COMPANIES MESS WITH SUCCESS) As we all know SKIM MILK TASTES TERRIBLE,and I can tell a BIG change in taste....(Terrible,i dont eat them anymore)

Im not the only one who can tell the difference....WHY ARE THEY IN DENIAL?  (What,is it bad business practice to admit a changed successfull recipe???? (They denied it for about a year))

They had THE BEST candy for about 20 years,then in 2000 they changed it to SKIM MILK,MILK FAT and they lost thier chocolate flavor,etc......(Terrible)

PLEASE TRY...The more people who ask them to bring the original recipe back because they dont like the taste of the PLAIN m-ms,THE BETTER CHANCE WE MAY HAVE...

Just CLICK HERE and enter your comments about bringing back the original PLAIN PRE 2000 recipe...(WITH REGULAR MILK)

PLEASE TRY AND HELP ME IN MY QUEST FOR GOOD CANDY COMING BACK......(The more people who send them email the better chance i have)

PLEASE everyone who does,leave a message here......

SPREAD THIS AROUND......PLEASE.....I am desperate to get GOOD CANDY BACK!!!

THE QUEST IS ON!!!!!!! http://img4.hostingpics.net/pics/413947XtremeAnger.gif http://www.inthe00s.com/Smileys/webby/sad.gif

I honestly hadn't noticed...

I haven't noticed the difference. But that could be because Cadbury & Nestle here have always used whole milk in their products that aren't "Lite", "Low Fat" etc.

I hadn't noticed a change in taste, but I haven't ate M&Ms as much as I used to,  In Canada, we have a similar product called 'Smarties'.  They are just like M&Ms, only you get more for the same price

I wonder if M&Ms in canada are made with reg milk... On the package it says "Milk ingredients" it doesnt say SKIM MILK like it does in the states..


I have had to find other M&Ms like the ones in "Trail mix" packages... Some of those chocolate candies ARE NOT M&MS and are made with whole milk still......

Sadly thats what makes it harder for those of us that can and love the taste better..... They count on people not being able to tell :(


Thats how they walk all over people.......... For about a year they lied to me saying they didnt change anything but the wrapper.... WERE THEY REALLY INSULTING MY TASTE BUDS???

Yes they were.......
