Popular chocolate brand, M&M’S attempts to make a mark in Singapore Book of Records by calling on Singaporeans and residents in Singapore to help form a Singapore flag made with with thousands of M&Ms lentils.

This record attempt is part of the M&M’S roadshow at Plaza Singapura called “Go Red this National Day with M&M’S”, which is happening at the atrium at level one from 28th July to 3rd August 2014.
