A Fairy Tale Quiz

Once upon a time there lived a king, you had a beautiful daughter named Princess Helen.

Although her beauty was overwhelming, she had a serious problem. Everything the princess would touched melted. No matter what substance, metal, wood, plastic-anything she touched would immediately melt!

Because of this, men were terribly frightened of her. With the fear of melting, no man would dare ask for her hand in marriage.

Because of this affliction, the king was desperate since he had no solution to help his daughter? Consulting the wizards and magicians of the kingdom, the elder wizard believed if the princess would be able to find one thing that did not melt in her hands, she would be cured.

The king was overjoyed. The next day, he holds a competition. Any man that could bring his daughter an object that would not melt at her touch, could marry her and inherit the king's wealth.

Three young princes accepted the king's challenge.

The first prince brought a rod of steel. But alas, once the princess touched it, it promptly melted. The prince went on his away sadly.

The second prince has a large diamond. Knowing that a diamond was the hardest substance known to man. But alas, once the princess touched it, it also melted away. He too went away very disappointed.

The third prince approached. He told the princess, "Put your hand in my pocket and feel what is in there."

The princess did as she was told, though she turned red. She felt something hard. She held it in her hand. And it did not melt!!! The king was overjoyed, and everyone in the kingdom began the festivities.

As promised the third prince married the princess and they both lived happily ever after.

Question: What was the object in the prince's pants?

Answer: They were M&M's, of course. Everyone knows that they melt in your mouth, not in your hand. (What were you thinking?)
