If I could eat one candy it would definitely be M&Ms - these are my FAVORITE treats. Not sure why I do this to myself but I randomly conduct science experiments on MYSELF (lol) so I can INFORM you of my results. So today...my kids have this candy cane filled with M&Ms...but they werent actually M&Ms..they LOOKED like my favorite little candy but they were in fact made by Hersheys. No big deal right? Well...yes. I recently researched a little thing called PGPR (Polyglycerol polyricinoleate) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyglycerol_polyricinoleate found in many chocolate bars/candies used as an emulsifier or thickening agent. Very commonly found in yep...you guessed it...HERSHEYs. So I check the ingredients in my little candy cane M&Ms and of course it DOES have PGPR but I figured ok...if I eat like 5 little pieces will it affect me? 20 minutes later and insane intestinal inflammation...why yes...YES IT DID. The true M&M brand does NOT use PGPR (based on my research). Dont you love how they abbreviate the word too? PGPR? It threw me off at first because I knew that anything starting with poly was a no no - but PGPR? Oh wait...its POLYGLYCEROL...duh. I mean why not add poison to our chocolate..makes sense right? So my guinea pig experiment for you is that even 5 tiny bites caused intestinal inflammation. (remember...this is me...my own study and MY opinion) but be warned...this stuff is lurking in your favorite foods/candies...ever wonder why you have severe abdominal cramping at random times that seems to last for hours? Its ADDITIVES like this in your foods! If youve had random intense stomach pain and wondered what the hell it came from... I hope this is eye opening for you! All content is MHO.
