Title: Dark M&Ms
Post by: on May 04, 2005, 09:26:59 pm

M&M's is daring consumers to go to the dark side with the first-ever dark chocolate M&Ms and creating a parallel "M-pire" of M&Ms dressed up as characters from all six Star Wars movies, including M2-D2 and M-3PO. Even Hasbro, the master toy licensee for "Sith," has created a toy line of M&Ms dressed up as "Star Wars" characters.

Here's hoping we get them too!

I'm really getting a liking for dark chocolate lately. I would like something dark and nutty.

Thorntons Dark Chocolate tasted nice yesterday when I had some.

Apparently they've had complaints about that advert he does where he puts his face on the cooker - people are worried kids could do the same thing. The TV critic in the paper said he had a complaint too - he was complaining about the hotplate not being switched on!

Why does he put his face on the cooker?

I haven't seen the advert. Smurfboy do you remember what the advert is for?

I think to demonstarte how clean it is. 'So clean you can put your face on it and kiss it'

Oh of course. Makes sense now cos I always rub my face over the cooker and kiss it when I've cleaned it, same with the bath and the car.

Not forgetting the toilet and the floor.

I wonder if Tony Blair cleans Cherie before he kisses her.

What cracks me up about that ad is that the cooker obviously hasn't been cleaned in ten years! There are people on 'Life of Grime' that don't let their cookers get that dirty, never mind professional chefs!

P.S. The ad is for Fairy Power Spray LouLou.

We will need to "force" them to.

This is the joy of conversation - it's organic, it moves, it flows...

I'd like to see what M2-D2 and M-3PO look like. And I'd definitely like to try the dark M&Ms

My cooker is really clean. it's only a few months old, rarely gets used and when it does I make sure to invite my mam over so she can clean it after she has done the ironing.

That's what I do too!
