I've known about this for a while - it's terrible that it's pretty well-known that they do it, but they don't stop....

Lyla Neko (scourgelyla) | 654 comments Damn... I like 3musketeers and Milkyway so much... :'(
I have already refused to eat Skittles since I found out about that at least 2 years ago. I can live without them.

Argan  Sadai (argansadai) So your going to blame all the workers for things they can't help? You want them not to have money for their family?


snake! Can't somebody love me v.v, | 81 comments no im not blaming them but there are other ways to test it


Lexphie (The Animal Lover) | 855 comments Mod
Yep have u. Guys ever heard Of the lady who's cells were cloned. Over and over, that is exactly what mars should do instead of animals I mean they won't even have the same effect of a human


message 21: by Argan (new)

Argan  Sadai (argansadai) So they should clone candy?


message 22: by Kayla (new)

Kayla Duff I have actually seen numerous sites that prove Mars does not kill/hurt animals. I don't believe it. I never have and I never will unless I see solid, fool-proof evidence, which I haven't. One website against tens I've seen does not convince me.

No they should clone human cells to test on instead of animals


message 26: by Argan (new)

Argan  Sadai (argansadai) I think that's even less humane


message 27: by Emily (new)

It's a company for M&Ms, Skittles and more."


No. M&M's is there own company I think. They do not come from Mars.
@Haley: Mars is a candy company.

Kayla Duff I'll see if I can find them, though I came across most in random google searches on animals and have no idea where I might find them again.

Alright ^-^

Lyla Neko (scourgelyla) | 654 comments A clone is an imitation of an original. All they do is take DNA into a machine then there is a copy of you.

message 37: by Lyla (new)

Lyla Neko (scourgelyla) | 654 comments haha. I'm used to the gore. Watching horror movies with your father and watching Animal Cops gets to you after a while.


message 38: by Redwallcrazy (new)

Redwallcrazy (redwallcrazybigkotfan) | 814 comments Oh hey, I watch Animal Cops too! I think some of that is soo sad, and my Grandma is funny because she can't watch that show while she's eating, lol.

Lyla Neko (scourgelyla) | 654 comments Before you stock up on candy this Halloween, you
should know that candymaker Mars funds deadly
animal experiments even though not one of the
tests is required by law, there are more reliable
human studies and Hershey’s, the company’s top
competitor, has banned all tests on animals.

Mars has funded cruel experiments in which mice
were fed a candy ingredient and forced to swim
in a pool of diluted paint. The mice had to find a
hidden platform to avoid drowning, only to be
killed and dissected later.

In another experiment funded by Mars, experimenters fed rats cocoa and
then collected their blood by injecting a needle
directly into their hearts—a procedure that can
lead to internal bleeding and other deadly
complications.

Mars also supported an experiment
in which baby mice were crammed into small
Plexiglas chambers and submerged for nearly five
hours in chilled water just to see if a chocolate
ingredient affected their breathing rate.

Please don’t buy any of these Mars products
until the company drops its deadly animal tests:
• M&M’S
• SNICKERS
• SKITTLES
• MILKY WAY
• STARBURST
• THREE MUSKETEERS
• TWIX
• DOVE
• M-AZING
• COCOAVIA
• ETHEL M
• LUCAS
• MUNCH

I believe in this to much to let it be unknown. I have stopped eating those candies and I will not eat them until they do something about it. We CAN make a change and i think we should start now.

to get this known...start a conversation in all of ur goodreads groups stating this. join other groups to get this known. Do whatever u can to stop this awful killing! Make a change.
