Some beekeepers in France were dumbfounded when blue and green honey showed up in beehives. They tried to sell it and couldn’t because it didn’t meet France’s honey production standard .That’s not satisfactory for a region that makes up to thousand ton’s of honey per year and a high bee carnage rate and low honey production after a harsh, winter. An inquisition by beekeepers in the town of Ribeauville figured out the problem: Instead of collecting nectar from flowers, local bees were eating remnants of colored M&M candy shells. The apiculturist have now thoroughly cleansed all leftovers of M&M’s on any container.
