A list of M&M/Mars brands (I'm boycotting the products until I see the company create some gay-friendly advertising to offset the damage they've done with the homophobic garbage they released during the Superbowl

I'm sorry. I can only help out so far. I love the dark chocolate snickers. I'll eat them at the eagle, but i ain't giving them up. The rest, no problem:)

There will be no drama.However instead of attacking via a product that won't do any good really, how about addressing the media and adverising houses that came up with the commercials? People still drink Coors even after they stopped donating to various white power charities..now their commercials FEATURE African americans. How about being proactive instead of reactive? Just a thought.

The car hood thing, and the 'reactions', though, didn't just push it over the edge, they catapulted it past the breakers.
Unfortunately, however, I never patronize any of the Mars products above, so a boycott wouldn't mean a damned thing where I'm concerned.

Oh, I forgot the part where they take more bites of candy bar in between kisses. Or licking melted candy bar off each others' nipples.
Controversial, gets people talking, *and* buying more product.
