It’s Not Easy Being The Blue M&M As Candy Gets ‘MAHA’ Makeover

Mars is giving M&M’s a “Make America Healthy Again” makeover by swapping artificial dyes for natural ones, but blue is getting temporarily benched because natural blue colorings (like spirulina) are expensive and a manufacturing nightmare. Brown is collateral damage, since blue is used to give brown its depth, so both colors are sitting this one out while Mars figures it all out.
