Which healthy vending machines sell candy? We’ll give you a hint: it’s the perfect blend of sweet and salty\u00a0\u2014 Peanut M&M’s.<\/p>\n

In a serving of 10 Peanut M&M’s, you’ll find 103 calories (via Secret Menus<\/a>According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture<\/a>\u00a0(USDA). Protein is the main source of nutrition in this candy. You’ll receive nearly 2 grams per 10 pieces. Of course, Peanut M&M’s don’t come out of a vending machine one at a time. Instead, if you opt for the Fun Size Peanut M&M’s package (like the one you might get while trick-or-treating on Halloween night), you’ll still get 1.72 grams of protein.\u00a0Even more, in a regular-sized singles package, you’ll find\u00a05.17 grams of protein. In comparison,\u00a0a\u00a0regular-sized bag of vending machine Peanut M&Ms trumps many of its sweet competitors when it comes to protein. Consider a Milky Way bar, for instance, which only has 2 grams of protein as opposed to the 5.17 grams of Peanut M&M’s (via\u00a0CBS News<\/a>). On top of that, 2 grams of fibre are included.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
