Anyone remember this rumored thing from the 90s?

A cringeworthy advertisement featuring Dennis Miller comes to mind

Sorry, but this was a GenX thing, first.
Pretty certain it was not a boomer thing, first.
My (13att) gf (14att) used to save all the green ones... that was 1982.

I proudly repeated that as fact to my family in the living room once, and only once
Arr2DoubleDee2@reddit
Is that why they made the green m&m the sexy lady?
CorgiMonsoon@reddit
Until they took away her sexy shoes. No man would ever want her once she started wearing flats!
tackleboxjohnson@reddit
Does she even have an ass? Who can tell

Man Tucker Carlson was PISSED that they changed his weird porn on him lol
ezmoney98@reddit
That's the rule. That's the goal now.
Timmeh007@reddit
What are we doing? What’s going on?
PushPullLego@reddit
He jerked off to an m&m for sure.
Tylerdurden389@reddit
And on them too
Apprehensive_Hat8986@reddit
I think his confused frown was because even the m&m shot him down.

She wore the sexy shoes when we first got to know her. Once she was comfortable and felt accepted, she switched. She’s still the same, sexy m&ms to me🤣
WasteOfBerries@reddit
In Canada we were busy being seduced by blue Smarties
Timmeh007@reddit
Same in the U.K.
theicecreamassassin@reddit
Mmmmm Smarties

I just remember that yellow 5 was allegedly gonna make you sterile. but I think copious consumption of Mt Dew, surge, m&ms and skittles combined with the existence of Gen Z has proved this hypothesis to be incorrect.
bikingmpls@reddit
It was skittles not mms I thought.

I remember calling the 1-800 number 20 times in a row to vote for the blue M&M to replace tan in 1995.
ObligationJumpy6415@reddit
I was explaining this concept to my millennial sibling the other day; they’d never heard of it. I was like how did you not know the green ones make you horny!? 😅
djsynrgy@reddit
I hate how everyone always rembers this wrong! 😆
It wasn't M&M's; they just looked like M&M's.
It was a pretty big scandal in its time, but the search engines only seem to offer misdirection or total whiffs. I was young when it happened, but I watched a lot of (often age-inappropriate) TV, and for some reason this has always stuck with me.
The supposed aphrodisiac product was called "The Green Ones", and they were sued into oblivion by the M&M/Mars company shortly after hitting the market.
It all came to a head after an episode of that awful dating show STUDS, in which a woman contestant described arriving at the guy's place to find a big bowl full of "green M&M's," then implied they hooked up.

Had two female friends who enjoyed performing the “m&m” trick- which was passing it via tongue from one to the other. Maybe this post is NSFW but- it did happen during school hours- between classes, lunch etc.
PleiadesNymph@reddit
I just put it together!
u/Smart_Calendar_1874 is Tucker Carlson!
How would you get a small cylinder (5.1in length, ~4.5in girth) unstuck from a mini M&Ms tube filled with butter and microwaved mashed banana?
aravarth@reddit
The cylinder must remain unharmed.
thunderlips36@reddit
It was the tan ones the whole time. It's why they took them away.
Remember when it was a huge deal that the red ones were coming back?
CultKitchen@reddit
I always thought it was blue m&ms, as they were added later (and the colour of Viagra)
Broken-Sarcasm-Meter@reddit
Green M&Ms give you the ability to hit home runs in Little League
dirtjiggler@reddit
This is one of my favorite colors. The dream is a 67 Continental in this color with brushed aluminum wheels and trim.
6thBornSOB@reddit
I thought the original mystique of the green M&M had to do with hitting home runs as per a commercial in the 80?
lirio2u@reddit
I always thought this was just a way of communicating desire. I remember a bf offering me some m&ms in college and poured some in my hand that were all green to make me laugh
Unexpected_Gristle@reddit
Green means your horny
Apprehensive_Hat8986@reddit
Your horny what?
shady-p1nes-ma@reddit
But only if it’s Wednesday.
Apprehensive_Hat8986@reddit
No can do. They're too sexy for TV.
SimpleVegetable5715@reddit
It was green peanut M&Ms.
Hilsam_Adent@reddit
Green is the "Horny Color", after all.
virstultus@reddit
I first learned this from Family Feud.
bfume@reddit
Only that they’d make you “horny”. Of course no one could tell you what that meant at the time.
