No More M&Ms In Your McFlurry?

McDonald's Corporation (NYSE: MCD)'s famous McFlurrys might be missing a key ingredient soon.

"An industry source familiar with Mars' thinking said the company has had talks with the world's largest fast-food chain and other partners about its candies' inclusion in super sugary products," according to a Reuters report.

"The elimination of M&Ms - which contain 7.5 teaspoons of sugar, about a third as much as the large McFlurry, per serving - is just one idea on the table; also under consideration with McDonald's and other partners, are recipe reformulations, the source said."

McDonald's has tried tweaking its offerings by providing healthier options over the years. This would certainly fall in line with that.

But don't worry, there are still plenty of McFlurry flavors to choose from.
