M&Ms are a beloved chocolate but what exactly do the two ‘M’s’ stand for? TikTok influencer Condiment Claire took to the social media platform to enlighten chocoholics.
The influencer stated: “The most fun candy or chocolate candy history fact is M&M and why it’s called M&M.”
She claimed that there’s “so much family drama” rooted in the tasty confectionary – “it’s so juicy, it’s so good”.
She explained that the Mars company was started before what was then called Hershey Chocolate CO.
The man who founded the Mars company had a son who was amazing at thinking up new chocolate ideas.

On the other hand, the dad – who founded Mars – “sucked”, claimed Claire.
She said he was a “bad guy” who “abandoned the mum”, and his son ended up leaving him and the company.
The son ventured to Europe during the Spanish-American war and noticed that people were eating what looked like “pebbles covered in candy coating”.
He was delighted to come across this concoction and wanted to bring it back to America – but not to his “bad vibes” dad.
TikTok user @mizzkikurbut said: “Now this is history I’m interested in.”
@seltzersnacks added: “Dying to pull this answer out in a future trivia night. Thanks for that!”
@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.
