The much-hyped M&M's SuperBowl commercial that was supposed to clarify the status of the brand's 'spokescandies,' which were put on pause after they were criticized by right-wing pundits, finally aired on Sunday, and it was, well, confusing.

The much-hyped M&M’s Super Bowl commercial that was supposed to clarify the status of the brand’s “spokescandies,” which were put on pause after they were criticized by right-wing pundits, finally aired on Sunday, and it was, well, confusing. In it, actress and comedian Maya Rudolph tosses handfuls of the colorful candies in the air, but instead of M’s, they’re emblazoned with “Ma” and “Ya” and images of Rudolph’s face. Rudolph sings that the candies are now filled with clams.

That’s because so many people tune in to the game and some of them are just interested in the commercials. “Anything you run during the Super Bowl will automatically get some attention, as if it were a scheduled show or entertainment,” said Karen North, professor of digital social media at the USC Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism. “The question is, how do you get attention to you, in particular?” Social campaigns may make the difference.

It only made “sense” to the small minority who pretended to be OUTRAGED.

Why? Made chumps out of Tucker

Hope Republicans don’t start holding M&M investigations!!!!!

Leave our candy alone!!!!

M&Ms are Woke

WOKE Zoomer Exposes THE TRUTH On East Palestine Ohio Train Derailment As Pete Buttigieg IS SILENT!!! via YouTube

Who cares buy them at not. Just candies

What happened in Ohio? You environmentalists truly don’t give a shit about the environment do you?

You truly are pathetic? Where is your coverage of the hiding lying JOEY the PEDOPHILE COWARD? Where is your border coverage? FAKE NEWS

Cool. Anyway, back to the news you're ignoring:

In 2023 this is what we’ve come to. Absolutely embarrassing by both sides for this entire world. I feel bad for people with actual problems in this world.

Mars extends this way further than just through its candy. Wonder why your dog or cat just fucking died at the vet? Probably because it’s owned by Mars Candy and they hired random gays off the street and called them a vet to fill a quota. I will send CNN the emails to prove it.

They were trolling Tucker Carlson. This is excellent sport and should be encouraged.

I love Ben lmfao

Insanity. .

Conservative backlash? or everybody backlash?

Just let M&M’s be M&M’s without the added BS 🤨

I've seen more news articles about this supposed controversy than people actually complaining about this The cons are tired I guess

I don’t care if the spokes candies were shown swinging on stripper poles..I’m gonna eat the sh*t out of them. There are bigger things in life to worry about.

I was like … wait, what?!

M&M’s should have announced their candy will now be sold in two color options. Rainbow and all white, so their customers can make their own statement

I can't believe that people are arguing the sexualiry of... CANDY.

Boring! Bring the M&M’s Characters again.

IAmSophiaNelson Which means it was a waste of (BIG) money.

I’ve been an m&m lover for 40+ years. But now I’m boycotting them for being woke and ridiculous.
