Poll question: A bag of M&Ms
How long does it take you to go through an 8 oz (half pound!) of M&Ms? Or should I even bother asking?

Still, nobody's immortal. I might buy me that 52oz version at Costco next week. :9

6. Good point
I could take care of peanut M&Ms in a couple days but the regular ones would take a lot longer.

7. I try to savor them for at least an hour, but
I prefer to have them last all day. They are the best damn little candies! Mmmm!

8. They would eventually get stale and have to be thrown away
I eat very little in the way of sweets. When I eat M&M's, I eat maybe 3 at a time. And since I don't eat them every day, or even every other day...

To give you an indication, I have a friend at work who insists on giving me little candy gifts at holidays. I have some candy canes from last Christmas still and I haven't even touched the Valentine's Day cup of Hershey's Kisses.

9. Forget 8 oz. bags of regular M&Ms
Edited on Tue Aug-02-05 05:03 PM by mcscajun
Move on up to the 12 oz. (or 19 oz. if you can FIND 'em) bags of the new
Mega M&Ms! Yes, they have 'em in Peanut...I'll stick with the Plain.

I just bought two bags today and put them in the candy jar. I'll report back when they're gone. :)
