658,172 pounds of M&M's
The Savy Giver blog posted yesterday on the new pink flavor as part of a fundraising partnership between M&M's and The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation.
Now through the end of October, which is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, M&M'S Brand will donate 35 cents on 14-ounce packages and 50 cents 21.3 ounce packages to Komen with a minimum donation of $250,000.The direct marketer inside me couldn't resist calculating the rate M&M's is paying as 2.374 cents for every ounce of M&Ms. So don't tell the donor, but that means we will have to eat 10,530,749 ounces or (as the title of this post suggests) 658,172 pounds of candy to fulfill this corporate goal.

Common Breast Cancer Myths
The first myth pertaining to this disease is that it only affects women.
Second myth that is associated with this disease is that if one has found a lump during an examination, it is cancer.
Third is that it is solely hereditary
The next myth associated with breast cancer is downright ridiculous. Would you believe, that in this day and age, some individuals still think that breast cancer is contagious?
Conversely, some individuals foolishly believe that breast size determines whether or not one gets cancer.
Finally, another myth that is associated with this disease is that it only affects older people. This is not so. Although the chance of getting breast cancer increases with age, women as young as 18 have been diagnosed with the disease.
