M&Ms



Do you know why M&Ms melt in your mouth and not in your hands?

Actually that's not only true to M&Ms but all (pure) chocolates generally. Only M&Ms applies science to its slogan.

The reason behind it is because chocolates' melting point is 370C. In your hands, the temperature is still below 370C and they will not melt yet unless you grab it in your palm for a while and this causes the heat energy from your body (370C) to be transferred to the chocolates and melt them. So that also explains why sometimes M&Ms do melt in your hands eh
