Carolingian M&Ms

OK, so the M&M Mars company doesn't think they're selling Carolingian M&Ms. They think they're selling the candies in the heraldic colors of one of the NASCAR teams (I forget which). Still, blue & yellow M&Ms, while they last.

CVS. (I found them at the one on Rt 3 South, in Burlington, next to the Michael's Crafts store.)

The most disturbing phrase I have read today:

>>>>>the heraldic colors of one of the NASCAR teams

Accurate, but disturbing.

That's just cognitive dissonance, Liam! It's fun to indulge it sometimes.

Picture two knights on horseback. Now picture them plastered with spornsorship logos like the racecars. (Insert an evil laugh.)

Note for other folks: some candy stores have bins of the special colored M&Ms, so you can mix your own color combos. Would be a fun silly present for friends, in their heraldic colors.

And then there's always the Mystery Men movie, in which the big-league hero had his costume covered with sponsored logos.

Cool! Hartshorn-dale's colors are also yellow and blue (plus our Knight Marshal works for a division of M&M/Mars). We'll have to track some of these down :)
