“Trail mix is just M&M’s with obstacles” is a jocular saying from someone who loves M&M’s—but not the other trail mix ingredients—that has been printed on many images. The saying was posted on Twitter on October 18, 2011.
Wikipedia: Trail mix
Trail mix is a type of snack mix, specifically a combination of granola, dried fruit, nuts, and sometimes chocolate, developed as a food to be taken along on hikes. Trail mix is considered an ideal snack food for hikes, because it is lightweight, easy to store, and nutritious, providing a quick energy boost from the carbohydrates in the dried fruit or granola, and sustained energy from fats in nuts.
Wikipedia: M&M’s
M&M’s (styled as m&m’s) are “colorful button-shaped chocolates” produced by Mars, Incorporated. The candy shell, each of which has the letter “m” printed in lower case on one side, surrounds a filling which varies depending upon the variety of M&M’s. The original candy had a milk chocolate filling which, upon introducing other variations, was branded as the “plain” variety. “Peanut” M&M’s, which feature a peanut coated in milk chocolate, and finally a candy shell, were the first variation to be introduced, and they remain a regular variety.
