M&M’S®, proudly part of Mars, is deploying its first-ever M&M’S Halloween Rescue Squad to help Americans who are at risk of running out of candy on Halloween night. For more than 80 years, M&M’S has created colorful fun for all and the M&M’S Halloween Rescue Squad is continuing this legacy. A recent survey commissioned by Mars* found that nearly half of Americans who celebrate Halloween have worried about running out of candy for trick-or-treaters and 89% say they have eaten at least some of the candy intended for trick-or-treaters prior to the big night.
