Mars is changing M&M’s, Skittles, and Starburst this summer

Mars is revamping its iconic M&M’s, Skittles, and Starburst candies by phasing out artificial dyes for natural ones, starting this summer. From August, M&M’s sold on Amazon will drop blue and brown colors, made from artificial dyes, in favor of natural alternatives. This shift, set to last two years, underscores a growing trend towards health-conscious, sustainable food products. Consumers can still find the traditional colors in M&M’s sold elsewhere, highlighting Mars' commitment to catering to diverse consumer preferences while embracing eco-friendly practices.
