    Theorists, I'm guessing most of you have seen at least one M&M commercial in your life. From the classic Santa is real one that's been circulating for YEARS or more modern versions, one thing is clear. Those M&Ms are being EATEN! I'm not just talking about being eaten by the humans in the commercials, the M&Ms are eating each other! Yet, I'm not sure that means they are committing cannibalism... Why? Watch to find out!

    What you overlooked is that the pretzel was surgically implanted. This leads us to believe that the other flavors are a result of surgical processes as well, which would mean they are all one species but with unique implants and therefore cannibals. Sorry, Matt

    The Green M&M saying "I'm naked" is likely because they consider the chocolate their underwear, and people do sometimes refer to themselves in underwear as naked.

    I'd like to just put this out there: My theory is that Cinnamon Toast Crunch is being hunted down for cannibalism, and that's why the name fluctuates so much between countries, like Cinnamon Toast Crunch in the US, then Curiously Cinnamon in the UK, and Cini-Minis in Slavic countries, as it's them changing identities and fleeing to different countries to evade jail time.
    But that's just a theory...
