Mars Inc., which makes M&Ms, is reportedly in talks with several burger chains about pulling its candies from soft-serve treats, including the McDonald's McFlurry, Reuters reported this week.
The effort is part of a broader campaign by the company to introduce more transparency and push for accordance with health guidelines around sugar consumption.
According to the McDonald's website, a 12-ounce McFlurry with M&Ms—alternately described as "a sweet storm" and a "moo-tiful partnership"—contains 89 grams of sugar. A smaller "Snack Size" version only has 59 grams.
