It ’s likely not real , but I really wish it was .

Early one Monday morning, while lying in bed psyching myself up to go to the gym, I was scrolling through TikTok and came across a very peculiar M&M’S video that stopped me dead in my tracks.

The video in question seemingly showed a giant bag of M&M’S (my dream) sky-high above Yonge-Dundas Square in Downtown Toronto.

All of a sudden, the bag of M&M’S started to shake and shimmy while luscious, delicious, and chocolaty M&M’s started to fall on the pedestrians below.

Spoiler alert: No one was hurt in the making of this TikTok.

Once my brain cells started firing on all cylinders after my 12-hour slumber, I realized this video was created with the magic of computers and, sadly, is not real.

Here I am, devastated:

I then realized this video was created to promote M&M’S taking over Yonge-Dundas Square during the upcoming long weekend (March 29–31) and their #ForAllFunKind campaign.

I then kept scrolling to see even more giant M&M’S content (my new algorithm) including this one in Montreal:

This one in Vancouver:

And this one in Calgary:

Needless to say, I’m sold. Giant chocolate taking over my feeds was not on my 2024 bingo card, and I’m not mad about it.

hold back out the Yonge - Dundas Square energizing in Toronto on March 29–31 . And if you see any giant M&M ‘S , please DM me a photo andbuy me some here !
