M&M’s get bigger and bigger

As we speak, Masterfoods is unveiling a new product, Mega M&M’s, at an event at Grand Central Terminal featuring John O’Hurley, best known as J. Peterman from Seinfeld. According to the Masterfoods release, these enormous new candies are “on average 55 percent bigger in size than original M&M’s and come in six new hues that appeal to adults: maroon, teal, blue-gray, beige, gold and brown.” (I guess as we get older, we begin to turn against primary colors.)
