Why some new bags of M&Ms may be missing blue and brown

Mars is introducing four specific products, including M&Ms, Skittles, Starburst, and Extra gum, which are manufactured without synthetic dyes regulated by the FDA. This change in ingredients explains why some new bags of M&Ms may be missing the blue and brown colors. The company is transitioning these popular brands to formulations that avoid the specific synthetic coloring agents typically monitored by the FDA to meet new product standards across these four distinct confectionery and gum lines.
