I sense a great disturbance in the force. They have taken Nature's Perfect Food, i.e., peanut M&Ms, to a place I was not prepared for. Usually I don't have much truck with blockbuster movie promo gimmicks. But this? Peanut M&Ms and dark chocolate are such marvelous things, yet I never dared to contemplate combining the two.
And somebody has to explain to me why Mexico gets its own country site, the U.S. gets its own country side, but the other third of NAFTA doesn't. Fercryinoutloud, Belgium has a site, with a choice of French or Flemish. Don't tell me they can't write Javascript in Quebecois. And if you think Darth Vader as a yellow peanut M&M is the most disturbing thing you've seen this week, you haven't seen the synchronized swimming M&Ms on the Italian site.
