What made Green M&M famous?

Forrest Mars Jr. rose to fame due to the creation of the M&M brand. His inspiration came from a candy named “Murrie,” small round sweets coated with chocolate that were sold as children’s toys in Richmond, Virginia. Mars Jr. took this concept and crafted M&M’s, which initially had a peanut butter flavor. The distinctive feature of M&M’s is their hard candy shell, made from sugar and cocoa butter, encasing chocolate on both sides. Over time, the flavor range expanded, encompassing not just the original peanut butter, but also varieties like dark and milk chocolate, mint, and white chocolate.
