Colorful chocolate buttons

M&M's are colorful button-shaped chocolate candies with a hard candy shell, each stamped with a lowercase "m." The name comes from the founders' surnames, Mars and Murrie.

She sorted her M&M's by color before eating them.

The slogan "melts in your mouth, not in your hand" refers to the shell's ability to prevent melting from body heat.
