Food Theory: We Need To Talk About The Green M&M
SUBSCRIBE for Every Tasty Theory! ►► bit.ly/2CdCooV
There is a lot of talk out there about the Green M&M. She's gone through some... iterations, but that is NOT what we are talking about today. At least, not the most important thing. What I'm looking to see is if green M&Ms can help you get LUCKY! Think of this as the spiritual successor to our chocolate episode a while back.

Food Theory Idea: Are banana peels really slippery? What makes them slippery? Are other fruit peels slippery? Which peel is the slipperiest?
That’s interesting
Good idea!
They are, what makes them slippery is the liquid inside them, when you squeeze them a super small amount of oily liquid gets released The slipperiest peel is mango peel
It's pretty well established they've killed quite a few people but if you're asking I assume younger people don't know
Myth busters actually had an episode with this!
I know that if I were in a study, and a bowl of singular-colored candy was presented to me, I would be distracted by trying to figure out what the study was trying to discover, whereas being in a room with a bowl of normal distribution candy colors, I would assume they were just there as a bonus snack to help the subjects focus on the task at hand. Maybe that's a future theory too, "does eating while doing a task help you focus?"
I would watch that video
Studies have shown that chewing gum helps improve focus so I would assume that snacking/eating can help one to stay focused, but you know what they say about assumptions. Related food fact; drinking tends to calm emotions. Next time you realize you're getting a bit too heated, take a sip of water. It also works if you're too exited or too sad.
Agreed. I would immediately be suspicious as to why my m&ms were all one color. xD
@@neolithiumproduction I guess unless it was Valentine's Day and they had the all green bags in stores XD
That and listening to music
As an irish lad i rarely heard 1st base etc we just ask no hidden meaning words it's just " have u shifted " "have u done IT with her/him/them" "yous are together ?/ together now" and the questions can start (depending on which county or friends ur with ) from "yous are together" to" have u shifted" or" yous are together ?" Whats he/she / or are they like etc etc
Thanks MatPat… Changing my dating app profile pic to one of me holding a bowl of mixed M&Ms
I hypothesize that a mixed bowl of color is possibly more "fun" thus leading to a higher rating than just a plain color, no matter what color that is
That’s what I was thinking too. Maybe more colors = more mental stimulation = more “arousal”
i was thinking the same thing, many colors is more visually stimulating than plain color candy, i'm pretty sure that's why m&m's and skittles are so colorful in first place
Taste the rainbow!
Especially if you threw in some of the less common colors. I can still remember how hyped blue M&M's were when they were introduced into the mix.

When the photo is so over used that the original image looks photo shaped (11:05)
3:32 Alright, Alright, you have officially convinced me to rewatch every office epsiode
When I was young I recall reading that British soldiers in WW2 would keep their green Smarties (a candy-coated chocolate like M&Ms) to throw into the grass when they returned home. Why? So their kids would spend the afternoon trying to find them, while dad was inside making up for lost time with mom. Tried to find a reference online, but can't find one. But as M&Ms are inspired by Smarties, the connection is there - assuming some author wasn't lying to me!
thats disgusting
i've never heard of that in my life, also smarties are only similar to m&ms in looks they're two very seperate sweets
@@Dkarm26 not US Smarties (which are called Rockets elsewhere). Outside of the US Smarties are candy-coated chocolates, like M&Ms, only flatter and wider.

Fun story. There was an upperclassmen in my physics class that didn't like purple Skittles and said they tasted like children's tears. So she would offer them to the table and I would usually eat them. So now I love to say I like eating children's tears everytime I eat purple Skittles.
Actually laughed out loud with this one.

Ok, but why does your teacher know how children's tears taste😶 Hello internet, welcome to teacher theory!

The fact they always have a control group make me happy :D
So, my marketing teacher in high school swore up and down that one of his students started the whole green M&M thing as a stunt to outsell other student groups in a regional contest, and that the legend grew from there. For the record I was always dubious of his claim, although he had never before told any tall tales of the sort. He told us this back in 1996 in the US state of Connecticut, though I'm not sure how long beforehand this took place.
I hope that's true. That'd be hilarious.

Honestly, I thought it was placebo since the Green M&M was associated with a salacious character, but I guess it was the other way around. My bad. (And I also had no bloody idea this whole “green M&M’s turn you on” thing existed, this is the first time I’ve heard of it.)

5:55 was the reason I subscribed 😂
Green is my favorite. I told my husband who bought a little bag and big bag of M&M's. He separated the green ones and handed me the little pack he taped back together. I opened it and laughed. It was Valentine's Day. It was my favorite Valentine's Day gift ever. I dont remember them making bags of green M&M's only. I'm sad that I missed that.
Um, when I was a teen, people didn’t say that made you feel any particular way, but they were a secret signal. So like, if someone wanted some intimate time with someone else, they would offer them a green one as a signal. If it was accepted, that mean the person was willing.
As someone who is never in the loop about anything this terrifies me
Hi
Oh boy I bet that has led to a bunch of awkward situations Unless you gave them a bag full of green m&ms.... but that might be too much for some
For the theory, I think the all green/red m&m’s just made people think about what was going on. Becoming more critical probably made more people second guess if they were truly attracted to someone.
Ayo don’t forget the brown m&m

As a german, coming from a country which actually takes a lot of pride and enthusiasm in their football/soccer: no, we do not make Relationship references using sports:))
So I'm just curious since not a lot of folks have answered, do you guys have any sort of euphemism for different levels of intimacy? Not necessarily sports related ones but just some other sort of family friendly way of referencing s*x?
@@oluwatimahwise6859 at least in Poland...nope

@@oluwatimahwise6859 nah, it's more 1st and 2nd date that is emphasized. 1st base is generally thrown out in favour of talking about it directly as in crushes, perceived flirting, describing the intimacy directly.
@@oluwatimahwise6859 hard question because in theory: yes The problem is, we love sayings So for example if we we want to say someone is imagining the worst outcome one could say "you are painting the devil on the wall" And we have a lot of these So basically yes we have sayings with family friendly words for having s*x, but they've become normalized in the way that they aren't family friendly anymore (And also not quite sports related)
My favorite fact about M&Ms. Eddie van Halen would mandate that a bowl of M&Ms be put in the back room of the venue exactly in the middle of the room and there would be NO brown candies, and this is item 295 out of 541 of setting up a typical van Halen concert. If they messed up the candy, then van Halen suspected the pyrotechnics we're neglected too, and would just cancel the concert.
What’s sad is that I think a lot of people misinterpreted that fact back in the day, because “no brown M&Ms” has since become a trope establishing that a character is a diva, despite Van Halen having *genuine concern for his life* if something went wrong.
@@ChanceTheBrony AND THE FANS, my god Eddie didn't want to blow up the fans! An amp alone can cause a serious fire.

@@ChanceTheBrony Exactly. It seems like a ridiculous request, because it _was._ It was a single, strange, completely arbitrary request stuck in the middle of a list of provisions to catch the kind of people who either didn't read the list fully, or would cut corners they didn't see as important.

I recently noticed something about peanut m&ms and thought you might be interested in reviewing. I had a family sized bag and noticed all the m&ms were wonky shaped, even some doubles and one missing a peanut. If you buy a small bag like from a gas station, they are all perfectly shaped. My theory is they use the perfect ones for the small bags, impulse buys, and they use all the wonky rejects for the large family bags.
Cool. That would be an interesting theory.
I also think smaller individual bags or single packs of any treat (personal sized candy bars/bags, single server pastries or snack cakes, etc) taste better. I think it’s to entice us to buy the bigger packs 😂

Food Theory: food expiration dates! My partner and I had a conversation about when to throw the milk out and when it exactly goes bad. I know there’s a difference between “sell by” and “expiration” but how long after the date does it take for bacteria to grow?
I like your suggestion in regards to bacteria growth and don't have an answer about that, but here's a fun fact: sour milk won't make you sick. Sure, once it's gone sour and curdled it's disgusting, that's definitely the suggested point at which you should probably stop trying to drink it. But drinking sour milk won't give you food poisoning or anything like that.
@@Oberkiller probably a bad stomach ace, and force you to hug the toilet lol
I’m definitely interested in an episode on this. I will drink milk more than a month “expired” as long as it smells fine and has no chunks 🤷♀️
sell by is just the average shelf life of the product, it cam go bad sooner or after that date
@@Oberkiller just a tummy ache and some botulism
Food theory all the theories make me shine my day
jeeeez that green sketch at 6:09 is making me giddy 0_0
also, placebo is a thing. believing the green m&M's actually make you feel "something"
This is one of the most understated and misunderstood things in pop science. Placebo reactions are a massive part of everyone's daily life, and they significantly impact our quality of life. The whole reason you give a placebo pill in the identical shape and color, in the exact same way, to a control group in a medical study, is because the expectation of the thing can, in part or in full, be causal to the thing. We don't want a medicine to just be better than nothing, we want it to be better than our perceptions can manipulate. A lot of folks think of the word as bad or dirty. It gets a lot of attention when something gets deemed to be "no more effective than a placebo," and folks who use or do those things don't respond well to being told the benefits they experience aren't real. The thing is, they probably are getting benefits. Like, if you grew up with your parents telling you that orange juice makes you better when you're feeling sick, you are very likely to actually get better. No joke, it frequently shortens your recovery and blunts your symptoms if you believe that. But we know for a fact that there are zero objective benefits from drinking orange juice compared to water and a few calories. How can those two things both be true? Because we don't actually deal with objective reality as much as we think we do. That's what science means when it mentions placebos. Your brain can take information and make your body do a bunch of things that don't seem like they should be possible. Those reactions are frequently belief based, and they do meaningfully help. They just aren't universal to every human. This is really just the tip of this iceberg. If it occurred to you that negative things could happen in the same way, you're absolutely right. And the sheer number of things a placebo reaction can do are not presently calculable. But it's a lot, and the differences are significant.
Good point
Green is my favorite color must mean I'm constantly thinking of 👏 🍑 which I'll neither confirm nor deny without my Lawyer present
This world is rapidly passing away and I hope that you repent and take time to change before all out disaster occurs! Belief in messiah alone is not enough to grant you salvation - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36) if you believed in Messiah you would be following His commands as best as you could. If you are not a follower of Messiah I would highly recommend becoming one. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life - Revelation 3:20. Contemplate how the Roman Empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13 over the course of 1260+ years. Revelation 17 confirms that the beast is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years going back to Babylon and before, C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate once you start a relationship with God. Can't get a response from God? Fasting can help increase your perception and prayer can help initiate events. God will ignore you if your prayer does not align with His purpose (James 4:3) or if you are approaching Him when "unclean" (Isaiah 1:15, Isaiah 59:2, Micah 3:4). Stop eating food sacrificed to idols (McDonald's, Wendy's etc) stop glorifying yourself on social media or making other images of yourself (Second Commandment), stop gossiping about other people, stop watching obscene content etc. Have a blessed day!

3:18 like in poland we usually refer to sports like football/socker cal it what you like or we try to refer to things in every day jobs or popular jokes
The talking candies are amazing!
I think that maybe another thing could be that seeing M&Ms with an assortment of colors provides the participants with comfort knowing that there is a variety despite there being no actual flavor difference among all the colors. Being given only one color of M&Ms makes it seem as though they are bland or all only one flavor and won’t be as satisfying.
You just gave me Froot Loop flashbacks!
Sure sounds legit. Just looking at the mixed bowl in the video makes my obsessively compulsive side feel happy and satisfied. 😊
Ok cool?
My theory: A full bowl of vari coloured M&Ms could induce a sense of security thanks to the perception of choice. Participants may also have been in a better mood because the garish colours made them think it was a party and thus socially appropriate to let loose. Meanwhile, single coloured M&m bowls could have induce a manufactured sense of scarcity, which would make people hesitant to date since they wouldn't have the resources to finish the seduction process. All in all, I think the lighting results are polluted with the sugar results and social perception. It would have been better to isolate the colour variable
i'm gonna be honest, i think you overcomplicated it. i don't think most people associate a full bowl of multi color m&m's with a party, but moreso a doctor's office. also idk if the scarcity part makes sense? realistically, one would think, "hmm, they're all one color, so clearly someone grabbed a fuckton of m&m's bags and kept only some colors." i think even i'm overcomplicating it. no hate btw, i just like debating theories
@@erilopez9564 How a doctors office? What a great doctor you may have but I would think I would a associate a full bowl of m&ms with a party

When MatPat was struggling to find a way to say the question of the video without getting demonetized, my first thought for the question was "Are green M&M's an aphrodisiac?" You can say that without getting demonetized, right?
Yeah same, literally just on my way down to comment lmao
He also played Austin Powers, so why not just say “randy” lol
A KZheadr got stroked for saying he liked grapes so i wouldn't take chances
12:37 my theory is that the red and green are stimulating as a more unique color but not alone (in this candy specific situation anyway)
3:27 we have rounders so we can still use the bases as an example
Some European perspective, if it's of any help: In my experience, we just don't use the "base" metaphors; we just say what we mean-- but we _are_ second-hand familiar with them because of American media. I just haven't experienced anyone using them sincerely/unironically. I've never heard anyone claim the green M&Ms to have any particular properties; and so, prior to watching this episode, I had just assumed it was a psychological thing, relating it back to the Green M&M from the advertising. If anything, the hot-ticket M&Ms over here (at least, in the UK) are the blue ones, because they disappeared from the market during... the 2000s, I think? Maybe the '90s?-- and when they came back, they made a HUGE deal out of it. Again, I think it had something to do with a connection being alleged between food-colouring and carcinogens.
Someone's really unlucky with bots. But, yeah, I agree.
Here in the UK we used the word scored as an equivalent metaphor to a home run, which is a Football Thing.
@@orionhardy I didn't know that. And I live there.
I think it was something to do with the blue colouring making kids more hyper due to it being a drug or something... not too sure tho
Agreed. It's rather funny bcs in Finland we do have baseball (even though it's not the same as the American, but anyways) and we still don't use baseball vocab for this purpose. Ice hockey is more popular, of course, but we don't use that either.

The fact that i literally eating m&m's while watching the video lol 😂
Here’s my theory: The bowls of the same colored candy definitely had something to do with color theory (maybe not all but at least a little). But my guess is that they also made the brain a little confused. You see, when you see an ad for m&m’s you see (usually) see all the colors, and so you kind of get used to it, anytime you see a bowl of same colored m&m’s its for a reason- its there to prove some sort of point (like in on the desk of a receptionist or something, hopefully that makes sense). But in conclusion it just doesn’t make sense to our brain is some way, like the uncanny valley of candy. Though I did see a theory on here saying something about the fact that they’d be suspicious is they walked in a room for an experiment and saw a bowl of same colored m&m’s there, they might wonder a little more what the experiment is about and get distracted. I could see this making sense in a way.

the uncandy valley 😏
My theory is that people find the green M&M mascot hot
I feel like that's more color psychology as opposed to color theory. Color theory is which colors for together and things like that, lol
???
Alternative hypothesis: the bowls of same colored candies doesn't allow the brain to rest. Think of how an addict gets diminishing returns after repeated drug use. The bowl of mixed candy gives the brain variation and makes those bursts of "love" chemicals more potent.
That's a cool hypothesis
Personally I believe it’s this mixed with us all previously having knowledge that it’s supposed to be mix, and therefor that it’s strange to be monochrome. If it was any other candy out there that comes in one color, it wishing face the same Issues. Then again, I’m not a fan of multicolored foods in the first place. So you might be more inline with the world for all I know.
you could also use sultry💚 3:41 KINKY 😂😂😂😂😂
Brings whole new meaning to Goated with the sauce.

You could just say “are green M&Ms an aphrodisiac”. As far as I am aware that is the commonly used, more “family friendly” term.
I was also about to comment the same!
I think they are just having fun with the idea of not being able to use the most common word
The placebo effect seems like something that should have also warranted a mention. 'Knowing' that the candy is stimulating due to rumors may lead to a placebo effect where it does actually cause you to become stimulated by it.
I think it's more likely that we find a variety more exciting for the same reason that most people find a plate full of monochromatic food to be less appealing. My guess would be that we need food from different sources to get different nutrients, so our bodies just find a variety of colors more attractive. I don't know that for sure, but it makes more sense than all red m&m's are suspicious. haha
Here in Brazil, even though baseball isn't part of the culture, we still use this metaphor of bases for romantic relations, not that common that everybody says, but still something that exists
I was wondering this thank you!
Great Job except u forgot 1 thing: Chocolate ITSELF is an aphrodisiac. So whoever ate the most candieswhile ranking would b more likely to rank higher.
actually it's not. it only boosts your mood, not your libido.
Sorry to break it to you, theres no such thing as an aphrodisiac, its all in your head making stuff up.
no, chocolate is the "feels good in your mouth" aphrodisiac. not the "make you want to have s--" aphrodisiac.
Oh yeah, Try Not to Get Age Restricted.. 3:36 Holy sh-

“The green ones make me 😈”
I love that the circle is complete, but I’m going to miss the joke “forth channel” that was sometimes thrown in.
it could be related to farva saying it in super troopers 2, although i think that may have came afterwards
As a Brit, I can safely say that throughout my high school and college days, I have never heard of a sports equivalent to any of the bases, we just said what we did
Was looking for a comment from a european, was curious if you guys had the metaphor but referred more towards cricket even though it’s not quite the same but probably most similar sport to baseball
@@luketruitt8150 Nah, we don't bother with anything like that
@@luketruitt8150 nobody actually plays cricket.
Why does this guy not have a Music Theory channel yet where he decodes concept albums He'd be a legend at that Edit: YES, I know about copyright, stop spamming the replies telling me about it- know this wouldn't happen- I'm just saying it's a neat idea
@dream what
Copyright issues !
he already explained this in one of his vids. its bc copyright issues
To be fair he probably would at this point, but the copyright rules when it comes to music is more uptight than other forms of media.
copyright things
The intro never gets old
Strewburies brings out the horn 😁 Smarties vs M&Ms. Apparently Smarties is made with natural fruit flavourings while M&Ms are all e-numbers. Do you guys have Smarties in the US? Your videos are great: :-)
My theory: a full bowl of colorful m&ms looks like a rainbow. Rainbows and colorful things are often associated with joy and excitement in our culture. The sight of rainbows might make people inherently lean towards happier more optimistic thoughts thus making the ratings go way up high
Sounds like a pretty solid theory my guy 👍
It would make sense, But you Don't have purple m&m and Brown isnt really happy colour
Dada
Everytime I see a bowl of singular color M&Ms my first thought is someone touched all that candy...like someone picked out all that one color from a series of bags to make a bowl. Kinda weird since I know they can just produce single color bags. My brain just instinctively goes where's the other colors?
your profile picture literally looks like a green m&m
@@y00uzu bruhhhhh
My cat love your videos. When I put your video my cat runs to see
As far as I know, amateur Baseball as well as Cricket are pretty popular in Europe, so I think they'd get the bases metaphor!
Food theory idea: you know the saying “I’m so hungry I could eat a horse”? Well how hungry would you actually have to be to eat a full horse?
W suggestion
Didn't he just connect with a competitive eating champ through Mr Beast? We could see how long it takes to eat an entire horse 🤣
Don't think a human could even physically do that, because the number of calories in a FULL HORSE would be way too high no matter how hungry you are.
@@RGC_animation i dunno, i think it depends on the kind of horse we are talking about, because there are some breeds that are really small, like 3 or 4 feet high

Credit to the editor and artist drawing the representations of colors, it’s bloody hilarious, and I love it, cause… yeah, I know *certain* artists are officially peaked by these things, lol.
