Let’s cut to the chase: Thanks to non-controversy Tucker Carlson stirred up, M&Ms paused the spokecandies, and replaced them with Maya Rudolph. And as you might imagine, Twitter fell over itself with all sorts of reactions, including plenty of M&M memes about the whole nonsense.
First, the green M&M lost her white boots. Then, they introduced a new female purple spokescandy, along with a limited-edition bag featuring the three female spokescandies brown, green, and purple.
All we’re pretty sure taste exactly the same. Simultaneously, Fox News pundit Tucker Carlson has been on a seemingly nonstop bender about them and how the “woke mob” is out of control and how the new purple candy is “plus-sized.”
M&Ms decided to pull the “you’re grounded” card and let us know that starting today, they will be taking “an indefinite pause from the spokescandies” and replacing them with the incredible comedian and actress Maya Rudolph.
But, do they know she wants to cancel Earth? And, does Carlson know she played VP Kamala Harris on SNL?
Though, there are Super Bowl commercials just around the bend, so perhaps they animated chocolates will return some epic fashion during Rudolph’s ad. Or, maybe Carlson should become their new spokesperson for the candy since he’s been helping drive sales because of his ranting about their “wokeness.”
