M&Ms are a beloved chocolate but what exactly do the two \u2018M\u2019s\u2019 stand for? TikTok influencer Condiment Claire took to the social media platform to enlighten chocoholics.<\/p>\n
The influencer stated: \u201cThe most fun candy or chocolate candy history fact is M&M and why it\u2019s called M&M.\u201d<\/p>\n
She claimed that there\u2019s \u201cso much family drama\u201d rooted in the tasty confectionary – \u201cit\u2019s so juicy, it\u2019s so good\u201d.<\/p>\n
She explained that the Mars company was started before what was then called Hershey Chocolate CO.<\/p>\n
The man who founded the Mars company had a son who was amazing at thinking up new chocolate ideas.<\/p>\n
@condimentclaire Replying to @Tweb212 \u266c original sound – Claire<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
On the other hand, the dad – who founded Mars – \u201csucked\u201d, claimed Claire.<\/p>\n
She said he was a \u201cbad guy\u201d who \u201cabandoned the mum\u201d, and his son ended up leaving him and the company.<\/p>\n
The son ventured to Europe during the Spanish-American war and noticed that people were eating what looked like \u201cpebbles covered in candy coating\u201d.<\/p>\n
He was delighted to come across this concoction and wanted to bring it back to America – but not to his \u201cbad vibes\u201d dad.<\/p>\n

When he brought the idea to Hershey Chocolate Co the man running Hershey\u2019s – Murrie – agreed to let him work with his son.<\/p>\n
The two got to work on creating these \u201cdelicious little candies\u201d and decided to call them M&Ms – Mars and Murrie.<\/p>\n
The original M&MS were invented in 1941 and during World War Two they were exclusively sold to the US military.<\/p>\n
The little chocolate pellets were heat-resistant and easy to carry around, thus made it into their rations.<\/p>\n
M&M\u2019s long-standing logo is \u201cthe milk chocolate that merle in your mouth, not your hand\u201d.<\/p>\n
Claire\u2019s TikTok explanation has gone down a treat, raking in more than 10,000 like and over 600 shares.<\/p>\n
TikTok user @mizzkikurbut said: \u201cNow this is history I\u2019m interested in.\u201d<\/p>\n
@seltzersnacks added: \u201cDying to pull this answer out in a future trivia night. Thanks for that!\u201d<\/p>\n
@milmama1 was delighted to hear the explanation: “This video popped up literally 15 minutes after my daughter asked why they were called M&M’s.<\/p>\n
