It's blue because coconut = tropical = sandy beaches and blue water, which evokes positive emotions and pictures of paradise in your mind, which makes you more likely to buy [PRODUCT]
As a pretzel M&M lover, I hate both that they are relatively rare and that the caramel ones have such a close color.
I used to get a tinge of excitement when I saw a blue bag of M&Ms, followed by disappointment at realizing it wasn't the pretzel ones. Now I just get immediate anticipatory disappointment, and, rarely, a nice surprise.
Now I'm really confused and my whole world view and philosophy of life is crumbling! Sigh, yet another existential crisis and it's only false dawn outside......
I think I'm just going to make another cup of tea.

Land grows from trees that live on coconuts.

Surprisingly enough, all of these statements are at least partially true.

Coconuts spread by floating on the sea from pacific islands to Madagascar

Wait till you learn how the coconut got to the Americas...

Swallow?
b_n@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 320d
African swallow
Zachariah@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 320d
An African swallow, maybe—but not a European swallow.

Yeah, palm trees that grow near the ocean you doink

Coconuts doink you on the head and then all you can see is blue

Coconuts grow in the ocean?

Light blue, though. Regular blue is milk chocolate.

There's coconut M&Ms!?
AmazingAwesomator@lemmy.world · 12 pts · 321d
sadly, i meant it the other way - blue does not mean coconut (its crunchy flavor)

Big mood

There were, and they were good too. I think they had a white packaging, then a light blue.

Hi Raffaelo you're fit

I don't know what you're talking about, but blue means raspberry.
stray@pawb.social · 5 pts · 321d
That's for candy and drinks. Blue is coconut for chocolates specifically. Though it also holds true for granola bars in my experience.

Blueberry chocolate beats coconut chocolate any day
essell@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 320d
Yeah, that was my first thought too.
I'm guessing this is some "America first" nonsense 😁

I thought everyone agreed that blue meant raspberry? If doesn't, what color am I supposed to paint my red raspberries now?
OneWomanCreamTeam@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 320d
No blue means blue raspberry, which taste different from real raspberry.
