===1990s: New flavors ring=== In 1991, Peanut Butter M&M's were released. These candies have [[peanut butter]] inside the chocolate shell and the same color scheme as the other varieties. As of at least 2013, the size of the peanut butter M&M has become slightly smaller. In 1995, tan M&Ms were discontinued to be replaced by blue. To introduce the new color, the Home Shopping Network televised a promotional video for the blue M&M. Producer Jon Watson became the first man to wear the famous blue M&M suit.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://money.cnn.com/2002/06/20/news/companies/mandms/|title=M&M lovers pick purple β Jun. 20, 2002|publisher=CNN|access-date=October 5, 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060527062928/http://money.cnn.com/2002/06/20/news/companies/mandms/|archive-date=May 27, 2006|url-status=live}}</ref> During the 1990s, Europe first began to adopt the M&M's brand name, replacing existing products.
