Mars ditches blue, brown in new dye-free M&M’s for U.S.

Mars ditches blue, brown in new dye-free M&M’s for U.S.

Mars is set to launch an M&M’s line without artificial dyes in August. The new packs will only include red, orange, yellow, and green shells. Blue and brown varieties didn’t make the cut after Mars ran into trouble matching those hues with natural dyes. This launch is a big deal for M&M’s. Color is central to what the candy is, not just a minor detail. Mars is trying to cut back on synthetic additives but still keep M&M’s looking familiar, as regulators and shoppers keep asking for simpler ingredients.

PepsiCo expands farming work, partners with House of Treats for personalized drinks

PepsiCo is rolling out new efforts this month. The company launched custom drink options at big venues and started a pilot on regenerative farming finance. Yahoo Finance, citing Simply Wall St., described them as “experiential drinks” and “regenerative farming.” Pepsi Global introduced its “House of Treats” beverage platform and teamed up with Compeer Financial to offer a strip-till equipment leasing program.

According to the company, the drinks are built through collaborations with entertainment and hospitality players. The brand debuted this month at the Pepsi MAX SXSW London activation in the U.K. Launches in Poland, Romania, and the Czech Republic are up next for this year, and more U.K. events are on the agenda.

PepsiCo stock slips into Presidents Day break as buyback plan meets rate jitters

PepsiCo shares gained ahead of the holiday. Harder pricing test still on deck

PepsiCo Inc. shares finished Friday up 1.16% at $150.57, gaining some ground into the Memorial Day break after a mixed week marked by a new liquidity filing and renewed scrutiny of U.S. snack prices. The stock started the week at $149.06 and ended at $150.57, up about 1%. U.S. stock trading won’t start up again until Tuesday, as the New York Stock Exchange marks Memorial Day, Monday, May 25, as a market holiday in 2026. That gives investors another day to look over PepsiCo’s credit filing and reports of a price hike for small-bag chips, along with the latest gains in U.S. equities.

  • Japan Moves to Defend Yen, Spends $74 Billion as Dollar Stays Strong
    July 1, 2026, 2:31 AM EDT. Japan logged nearly $74 billion in currency intervention as the yen sank to a 40-year low against the dollar. The country's latest move comes as the Bank of Japan raised rates to 1%, but that's still nowhere near U.S. levels, and the dollar keeps the upper hand.
