In a recent Fox News segment no-one saw coming, an irate Tucker Carlson blasted M&M for swapping one of their characters' high heels for trainers, complaining that the look was "less sexy" and “deeply unappealing”.
With apparent dismay, Carlson lamented that "you wouldn’t want to have a drink with any one of them", adding "that’s the goal. When you’re totally turned off, we’ve achieved equity".
Confused and amused by the idea that anyone would be turned on by an M&M in the first place, the iconic cinema sweets quickly began trending, with a number of 'sexy M&M' memes doing the rounds. This included plenty of discussion as to what the two Ms in M&M actually stood for.
