Truth In Advertising -- Science At Work For You

M&M's melt in your mouth
            not in your hand
          
          In summer they cook in the sand
            and melt on the land

My maiden name starts with an M, so my initials were MM, so these were my favorites (and still are) and in summer they do make your hands sticky, no matter what the commercials said!

I'm a Smarties man, myself, though they no longer taste of childhood...they still melt in just the same way as they ever did. Like wet paint in rain, the colours bleed rainbow-esque in my palm.

Hadn't heard of Smarties before... Looked 'em up on google. I see what you mean now. I imagine they make you 'smart,' just like 'Kool-Aid' helped make you cool. lol. Thanks, Ryan. Sweets and Treats, Gershon
