For Christmas you should do an episode on if Santa could survive all the cookies he would consume.
The answer is no, I can promise you that much lol.
Rather than if he would survive, I’m more curious to know how many calories he would consume if he actually ate all of them.

I want this
THAT would be a fun video; even tho we already know the answer. I think it would be nice to know the closest to surviving he could get. Or maybe how long he would survive.
Well, I mean there are multiple ways of interpreting "does not melt in your hand" I personally have always assumed it meant that the chocolate doesn't make a mess in my hand. because Hel knows that all other chocolate does.
Yes, they are being pedantic. We all know what they mean. 8^)

@I care frick I was 2 minute late
Me next day at school:
Teacher: “Have you done your homework?”
Me: “It burnt up in my hands”
When I was small and occasionally even now, I find it very satisfying to smush milk chocolate M&M’s between my thumb and index finger before eating them. I deliberately let the chocolate warm up a just a tad bit by say for example, leaving an unopened bag in my pocket for a minute or two… There’s just something about the compression and rupturing of the candy shell that is satisfying in much the same way people find it satisfying to pop bubble wrap…

I like how Matt's like "the most unforgettable slogan" and then lists an M&M slogan _that I've never heard before_
I have also never heard of this slogan, It could be because of the time or place we were at while watching TV.
I don’t think they’ve used it in this century lol
Very boomer of him.
To be fair, that does mean you’ve never forgotten it

I’d love to see a food theory on why people drink coffee when it upsets our stomachs so much
This but with people with lactose intolerance and cheese
They like it
It doesn't bother mine.
I’ve never heard of it hurting someone’s stomach before. Maybe you should see if you have an intolerance, or an allergy to it?
Cause that isn’t the norm. 😅
Coffee can definitely be acidic, and it changes from brand to brand. Depending on where you get your coffee, you can get one acidic enough to affect your stomach.
5:15 he just explained how sweaty and gross m&m's really are after being in your hand for too long. That's putting me off m&m's for a while. Advertising healthy eating without meaning to, I love this channel
I mean, “It melts in the shell, not on your hand” works by its own context. I dunno why that isn’t used. It’s accurate, descriptive, equally simple.
It doesn't suggest that you eat it though, and doesn't get you thinking about chocolate melting in your mouth.
I agree with that. All chocolate melts.
It's comparing itself to the alternative options like chocolate bars, which melt in your hand
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.
You should see if the chocolate in M&M’s hardens back up. And that might be the point of military shipment. It melts but stays in cased in the sugar shell to later be hardened after shipment. As if nothing happened in the bag, unlike their chocolate bar counterparts.
3:54 The text changed from "Not in your hand" to "Not in your hands".

Game Theory: Ruining your childhood since 2011
Here’s the real slogan: “The milk chocolate doesn’t TYPICALLY melt in your mouth, not in your hand. But if you get Mat to hold it in his hands for 4 minutes or keep M&M’s in your glove compartment, then it will spew everywhere.”

I will always wonder how Mat comes up with this stuff, It's always so fun to watch him lol
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
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,

@@Craxin01 I’m sure Matpat and any sensible average people knows what the slogan meant. Matpat has to try hard to spin the slogan to mean what he what it to mean to make a video. This video was honestly one of the more boring ones
@@Craxin01 well he mentioned sugar in the shell which can dissolve in water including your sweat from your palms if you hold the m&m
The slogan should be "melts in your mouth not ON your hand." So while the physical process of melting happens inside the shell whilst the m&m is IN your hand, the milk chocolate theoretically doesn't make it outside if the shell ON your hand. It's the semantics and prepositionality of it all for me 😂
Was thinking the same thing but matpat just had to drag it out
Ok
That is an awesome idea! Great choice of words.
Bro that was the slogan when m&m first started
I did not understand what you said but i completely agree
5:57 the bfdi mouth….
Yes
Okay
Oddly specific
I've already done this before when I was a kid living in a restaurant. I still remember that it takes about 250 seconds for the M&Ms to become super squishy.
I guess the 2 M’s stand for Mythical Marketing.
I understand this might have been a joke but in case you wanted to know it actually stands for Mars and Murrie. Mars invented the chocolate and at first the Murries who were in charge of Hershey supplied the chocolate
What does m&ms actually stand for
@@bakrobertjohnston4889 read my comment
Nah, everyone knows it stands for Marshal Mathers
Well then it's good mythical marketing
"Melts in your mouth, not *ON* your hand"
The chocolate certainly melts in your hand but it doesn't get ON them
It doesn't melt in your hand, it melts in a shell
grammar MatPat, do you speak it?
@@johnnyslokes2712 in a shell encased within the palm of your hand (if holding it like MatPat did at the end)
@@johnnyslokes2712 Exactly, it isn't melting in your hand, but once you bite through that shell and the chocolate is exposed, it certainly melts in your mouth.
I think he's reading the slogan more like if a person were found crushed inside a car after the car had been crushed in a car crusher, we wouldn't blame the car, we'd blame the car crusher. So, since your hand is making the chocolate melt through radiant heat, he's technically correct. But, since the chocolate isn't melting onto your hand, the slogan still reads true.
@@Craxin01 yes we aren't holding it long enough for the shell to reveal the chocolate inside so it would still be true as we eat it the chocolate melts in our mouth
Melts in your mouth, not *ON* your hand. There, I fixed it. Mars can pay me the money.
Exactly. That little candy shell is made of meltable stuff - sugar, which, yep, melts in your hand especially when you hold them, your hands are warm, and they sweat.

That might’ve been my favorite theory video opening ever. Well done.
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.
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.

I work at a grocery store stocking shelves overnight. We get BIG loads of candy during holiday seasons and they come in early so we have to put our pallets of candy up top on our metal sky shelves. But we can't do that with candy anymore because the lights up there (even 6ft away) heat up the candy so much it melts. INCLUDING M&M's lol, pulled the pallet down to check on the candy and picked up a bag of liquid M&M's 😅

Slogan pitch: "The milk chocolate melts in the shell, not in your hand."
In the bottom left corner in extremely small text: then the shell melts because we stopped using the tropical chocolate formula.
I don't remember ever hearing "the milk chocolate..." part before, I just always took it to mean the chocolate doesn't get all over your hand, but once you bite it, it would be all creamy and melty
Ya. In other words, it doesn’t even matter that the chocolate inside would be melted as long as it’s not messy in your hands

Looking at this again, I'm wondering if it's theoretically possible to hold M&Ms in your hand long enough to fully dissolve the shell. At that point, the chocolate should have long melted as well.
your the best at making me want to use/have whatever your sponsering lol
"Theorist levels of unnecessarily rigorousness" DAN you have had the highest MatPat praise ...
M&M's slogan should be: "It doesn't melt in your hand", considering "it" as the candy and not the chocolate.

Loved this episode!
And now I want M&Ms…
Matpat,I would actually like to say a food theory idea I had!
How exactly does certain colors of food,also effect the taste of foods? I feel like it's a way to help understand the psychology behind how color effect taste,even when not flavored.
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. Meanwhile, warm colors like red are more appetizing, hence why a lot of food related businesses use red or warm colors (KFC, Burger King, McDonald’s, you name it. The more blue ones are grocery stores or ice cream places).
He has
@@monroerobbins7551 exactly,it also helps understand why certain shells with candies,let's take the m&m's for example (I actually don't know if they're flavored,but let's go with they're not) that it makes the red colors have a different taste then the green colors,or that the yellow tastes somewhat let appetizing then blue.
The psychological reason behind certain brands using colors and other textures would help explain why some food is seen much more appealing when it's colors are different,though the food alone would be something seen as gross.
@@wififishylego703 that was for certain brands and games on game theory,and I've seen that before
@I care report him
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.
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 😂)
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
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.
@@patrickwilsonfan4397
Ditto for you.
@Joshua Roehl th-cam.com/video/JwncAQurlqk/w-d-xo.html
Ya know, before today, I've never even knew that MnM's even had a slogan.
Idea For Christmas: So in Elf buddy says he eats nothing but candy, syrup and among other sweets. So if he’s a full grown adult living on sweets, how did he survive
MatPat: “Now it’s time for some sweet, sweet thermodynamics”
Me: Wooooo baby! Yeah that’s what I’ve been waiting, this is what it’s all about
Another thing: as the sweat on your hand dissolves the sugar exterior, it should increase its conductivity, making it melt faster
Dissolve
UGHHHHHHHHHHHH but then we have to apply integral calculus just to make the answer only a few more seconds accurate!!! ;-;
@@danese1636 and this is why I'm very comfortable with a ballpark. Though, tbf, he could have used an extremely weak insulator to wrap the m&ms before closing his hand. Even if there's math involved, there, it's no longer calculus.
I actually learnt something in this video. Good job MatPat.
I Like how he spends all this time just to explain some food
Theory idea: Is the 5 second rule dangerous? I’ve always been told “5 second rule” as a kid and been very nervous about taking said advice. I’m wondering if it holds up and how likely it is to make you sick. My guess is that salty things would be better at this, but I’m not sure, and I’d like to see Matpat test it. (Pretty sure it’s gonna get buried again, but in the infinitesimal chance you’re reading this, I love your videos, Matpat!)
I can't remember where but I remember someone looking into it and it was also about if the food was dry vs wet when it came to how quickly bacteria grew
@@Katherine_999
There was an episode of Mythbusters that dealt with that.
5-second rule, wet vs dry, AND double-dip vs eating from bowl.
Fully controlled execution.
Adding on to the discussion, believe it also depends on the surface they land on. Some are cleaner than others.
@@ryudragonuv I remember that episode.
It depends on the surface (someone else did say this) but if you don't know if the surface is clean or not then you shouldn't eat it from the surface. (I probably typed more words more than I could've)
“The milk chocolate coats your tongue, not your hands!” New slogan, or “Coats your tongue, not your hands!” For short lol
Not that bad.
This was one of my favorite ways to eat M&M as a kid. Stick the package in a warm spot (the sun, a car or a back pocket) and then you got a perfect treat: a crunchy outside with a warm melty center.
14:30
MatPat: (M&M's)with those Rice Krispies inside
Me immediately: Excuse me? 🧐
The extended slogan definitely uses the word "chocolate" as the entire snack.
A "box of chocolates" doesn't just refer to the solid mix of cocoa and sugar, it's any filling and coating too.
not in europe 😂

That would be interesting though Pringles isn't a true chip. But is delicious and nifty idea.
@@morrigankasa570 I think that adds to the video's script though. Food Theory has done a bunch of episodes on food classification (hot dogs = sandwiches, is Subway Tuna actually Tuna, etc.) and I think it would be fun to tackle both the questioin of "what is a potato chip" as well as "why use tubes to transport chips"
@@gamecatharsis9600 true
actually, its the shape of the chips themselves that helps them not break and less so the canister that contains them.
I totally signed the petition🤗. I won't get to watch but I want him to get all his flowers
Such a great timing for asking to sign your petition lol
still cool that they bothered to find a way to keep it from turning into a giant pile of sticky gross mess while being shipped back in the day. And no where near as weird as the M&M mascot monsters.
M&m mascot monsters?
@@justmonika3475 The cannibalistic fellas that eat each other
Apparently that's been the M&M slogan for a long time, but somehow I've never heard it before, despite picking up M&M's fairly frequently.
the way they advertised it as being unmeltable is becasue the layer of candy stops the actual choclate inside from seeping out unlike the normal choclate bars when you hold them they melt and make a mess yk
This video helped me answer a trivia question today. I never know trivia answers!!!
Matpat, I think you should reach out to Linda Bartoshuk. She’s one of the most phenomenal taste scientists out there, and she might be able to greatly benefit you when it comes to the science in your videos, especially behind taste. 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. Since some philosophers greatly messed up the ideas around taste, and she has some super out there theories (she’s currently writing a book about it). I would love to see this, and I’m sure most of your viewers would too, so just consider it.
he should
very interresting!
Yes!!!

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.
Actually, in the right conditions, I've had M&Ms melt in my hand. It was awful and I've largely avoided M&Ms since lol.
@@47ratsinahoodie Same tbh so I don't get this. MnMs in the tropics is awful.
@@alalalala57 yeah, I feel like the only way you can really enjoy M&Ms is stuff them in the freezer for a bit, let them thaw for like 5 minutes (maybe even less) and scarf them down like a starving coyote before they get back to room temperature. I wish there was a more versatile chocolate candy
My mom always told me it's not literal, but that they're saying you eat them so quick they dont have time to melt in your hands
I was going to call you out based off what I saw Rhett and Link do on GMM, but you changed it up with the specific words in the slogan. Good one!
The twerking Thanos was a nice touch. Chef's kiss to the editor.

@@EEEEEEEE i agree
Thank you for make science entertaining 🤣🤣🤣. I didnt need to do all of that math to find out of the shell good isolator because if u put in fridge 😆, it will become hard inside means poor isolating shell
0:24 who reads wings of fire and one of there favorite characters is Peril and this reminds you of her?
Yes lol, I had a feeling that was familiar
It’s about how you interpret the slogan. It could mean the chocolate won’t melt in or “into” your hand thus making a mess. So I doubt you will be winning any false advertising lawsuits.
But it’s just a theory…..A FOOD THEORY
he's not trying to win any false advertising lawsuits.....it's just a video about if the chocolate melts in your hand or the shell....sounds to me like you take things too seriously
@@hufflepuffler2575 r/woooosh
@@PUNISHERMHS_2021 go away, redditor.
what if the shell dissolves then the chocolate melts in ur hand
Hey MatPat, since you've talked about Mtn Dew in the past, how about doing a Food Theory on trying to figure out what the 2021 Mtn Dew Voo Dew Mystery Flavor is. Maybe it could be a yearly thing. My friends have guess it to be fruit punch. It think it has to be cranberry related. 🤷♂️
It's sad to see most comments to yours are links to videos.
Good idea then do what new candys might come out
@@somethingnotcatchy report them for spamming
@@PurPurDot yeah
@Anna nice 😍
This must have been an advertisement because I had the craziest cravings for peanut m&ms after this 😅
I’m so thankful for your sponsored ad. I’ve been wanting to lose weight for a while now, and I think this app will be the app I need, thank you so much!
Next up: “Goldfish has lied to you, that snack don't smile back”
only some of them smile false advertising!
