What should the new M&M color be?

M&Ms: they're crispy, nutty, peanut-buttery, even plain. Soon they'll also have a new color.

Seven years after 10 million voters picked blue as the new shade, lovers of the candy-coated chocolate have a new decision to face: "awesome aqua," "think pink," "purple power," or a write-in color.

Venues asked what Penn Staters want the new M&M color to be.
