The chocolate may melt relatively quickly when it’s hot out but at least the candy shell prevents it from getting messy to a degree, which I think is more the point

[@Craxin01]

English, believe it or not, has changed in the last 80 years. The original slogan was referring to the chocolate melting onto your hand, meaning the chocolate isn't getting onto your fingers. Be that as it may, once you bite through the shell, the chocolate is most definitely melting in your mouth,

That being said yes it melts in the shell just like he proved and just like you're saying here that's a good phrase but it doesn't compare it to say a chocolate bar which does melt directly onto your hand I think we all kind of understand this and this episode is kind of a splitting hairs episode and that's cool because that's why we okay I'm going to go take a shower now and just enjoy the episode and kind of zone out

The Shell lets you snack, without the mess! is even better because its truthful, simple, and fulfills the role of comparing it to other things like Chocolate bars and addressing the actual issue of them melting in your hand. Instead of having a chocolate bar with the mess, have a M&M with the shell.

The slogan should be "melts in your mouth not ON your hand."

sweaty, melted M&Ms are for everyone. Also..M&Ms disolve quite a bit on ice cream. Those colorful streams on a vanilla cone are part of the fun.

[@evanmontague9456]

Also when you hold the m&m’s (for like four minutes) while it melts on the inside it is still solid and yes, when you crush it, it’ll ooze but it’s advertised as candy and put that thing in ur mouth and it’ll ooze in your mouth. Not to mention that when popping the m&m’s in your mouth (like a normal person)it isn’t melted by your hand even slightly because of the shell and because you break the shell with your teeth it’ll melt in your mouth. The problem with how matpat “proved” m&m’s melt in your hand is that he went out of his way to make the m&m’s melt my holding it for a long time. It’s like if someone said “HEY GUYS IMMA PROVE THAT ROCKS ARE FLAMMABLE” and then took a rock, poured lighter fluid on it and lit it on fire.

Ohhh yeah, like how blue makes it look less appetizing, hence why blue glasses used to be a diet fad, cause it made the food look less appealing.

She works in the phycology of taste, and was a professor at Yale for a number of years. Currently she works at the University of Florida, and she would probably love to help you with a theory. She has some really good evidence on some really cool taste stuff, that’s super interesting.

[@DragonHeart53]

To be totally fair, this is generally taking the slogan a bit too literally. The candies accomplish their task of not melting "in" your hand by simply not covering your hand in chocolate while you're trying to eat them. it doesn't mater that the chocolate is already melted inside the shell, it's meant to keep that chocolate from melting "onto" anything other than the inside of your mouth. which is referring to the phrase of "melting onto" something. regardless of if the chocolate is already molten by the time it gets to your mouth, the only place the chocolate is actually being released from it's candy shell, is in your mouth. that's why it was successful as a candy for sending to troops, because open bars of chocolate became a nightmarish mess to handle, but the M&Ms were still solid pieces of candy. even if they were just a little softer than usual.

[@atirkahn]

I totally agree, in my eyes the slogan still definitely stands up, since at no point does the chocolate get to your hands and coats them, it coats your mouth and taste buds - which is exactly what the slogan is trying to accomplish 🤷🏻‍♂️ So in my opinion this theory doesn’t really hold any water… (unlike the shells holding in the chocolate! Ayyyyy 😂)

[@JordanRunge14]

Exactly. Who cares if the inside is melted as long as the outside is intact and allows you to eat them without the chocolate getting everywhere

[@starplatinum2414]

THANK YOU!!!! This is exactly what was irking me off about this theory. Because sure from an unnecessarily over analytical and scientific standpoint, the M&M slogan is wrong about the chocolate melting in your mouth and not your hand. But from a common sense standpoint the slogan is fine because no one, literally absolutely no one in their right fucking mind is going to intentionally hold a bunch of m&m in their hand for upwards of four minutes.

the candy coating allows it to retain its shape when it cools down again, so its still great to send over seas to the military. as long as it is kept dry, and is brought back down to room temperature. Its melt resistant, well enough to provide its function.

I can safely say they wouldn't, had them all the time as a kid and they'd often be melted inside the cardboard tube they came in if I'd left them in my pocket for too long.

You've actually convinced me that the slogan isn't as false as I thought it was. I've always just thought of the reaction that leaves the coloring on your hand as being a result of melting, but, as you've shown here, that was wrong. Focusing on the milk chocolate, though, the slogan rings absolutely true. The chocolate isn't melting in your hand because the chocolate isn't IN your hand. It is in the candy coating. You held it for 4 minutes and that coating wasn't even close to dissolving enough to let the chocolate melt into your hand. In your mouth, however, the candy coating will dissolve fast enough that the chocolate will indeed melt in your actual mouth. Conclusion: Mars nailed that slogan.

Well liquid just means the molecules can slide past each other, which I say they did pretty well just then, so maybe it *is* a liquid just a very viscous one

[@danese1636]

@@ultimus616 A liquid is defined as a material that deforms continuously under shear stress. Mat applied a bit of a normal stress to the M&M's, but he also seemed to slide a few of them (adding shear). The chocolate did not deform continuously, and is thus not a liquid. More accurately, if he were to raise the plate 180 degrees (vertical orientation), the M&M's would also not deform continuously under gravitational shear. If you had a drop of oil, it would "slide down" (continuous deformation) [actually it leaves material behind... the droplet deforms continuously under gravitational shear]. The M&M's would, assuming the face in contact with the plate was made fixed, not behave this way while having the state of material depicted within the video.

[@ultimus616]

@@danese1636 While I'm not familiar with that exact definition, and it might help to frame it less.. pedantically.. I gather that you mean it doesn't flow like a liquid does.
