The speaker, who is hosting a show called "Food Theory," is discussing the iconic M&M's slogan: "M&M's melts in your mouth, not in your hand." He explains that this slogan is a complete lie, as the chocolate inside the candy shell does indeed melt in your hand. He uses a series of experiments to demonstrate this, showing that the chocolate inside the M&M's melts due to the body's heat and the sugar coating on the outside of the candy shell. He also explains the science behind this, using thermodynamics and the properties of sugar and chocolate. He concludes by suggesting a more accurate slogan: "M&M's melts inside the candy shell, which is separated from you by less than a millimeter of sugar." He also mentions that he has been on Noom's program since April and has lost weight while feeling healthier. He recommends Noom's program for anyone looking to make healthier decisions.
1. The speaker is discussing a customer's experience with returning a product, specifically M&M's, which they bought and found to be defective. The customer's hand burned when they tried to hold the product, and the product's credit card burned as well. The customer was given a refund for the product.
2. The speaker is introducing a show called "Food Theory" and discussing the concept of food slogans. They mention that the slogan for M&M's, "M&M's melts in your mouth, not in your hand," is a popular one.
3. The speaker delves into the chemistry and thermodynamics of M&M's, explaining that the candy shell is made from a blend of sugar and corn syrup. They also mention that the melting point of the candy shell is significantly higher than the temperature of a human hand.
4. The speaker explains that the sugar coating of the candy shell does not melt in the hand, but the sugar inside the candy shell does melt when in direct contact with the hand. They argue that the candy shell acts as a good insulator, preventing the sugar inside from melting.
5. The speaker presents a mathematical calculation to demonstrate that the sugar coating of the candy shell is a poor insulator, and the chocolate inside the candy shell would melt if exposed to the heat of a human hand.
6. The speaker concludes their analysis by stating that the chocolate inside the candy shell does melt in the hand, even though the candy shell itself does not melt. They suggest a new slogan for M&M's: "M&M's melt inside the candy shell, which is separated from you by less than a millimeter of sugar."
7. The speaker mentions a sponsor for the show, Noom, and discusses their personal experience with the Noom program. They express that the program has helped them maintain a healthier lifestyle and feel more accomplished.
8. The speaker invites viewers to take a free 30-second quiz on Noom's website to start their own health journey. They also encourage viewers to share their favorite flavor of M&M's in the comments section.
