The orange M&M is now more open about its anxiety, but the most obvious visual difference is the shoes, particularly on the ‘female’ green and brown M&Ms.

Green’s boots have been swapped for comfy trainers and brown’s stilettos ditched for a lower, more practical heel – presumably for when she has to negotiate stairs.

Fox News presenter Tucker Carlson had his own somewhat disturbing take on the revamp, and Acyn Torabi shared the Fox News presenter’s rant.
