President Trump has his very own boxes of personalized M&Ms available on Air Force One.
Piers Morgan, who recently interviewed Trump for the Daily Mail, included a photo of his box of candy in a post describing his ride on the presidential plane.
The image shows one side of the box which features the presidential seal and President Trump's signature flanked by white stars in blue stripes.
According to Thrillist, the tradition of handing out boxes of M&Ms started with President Ronald Reagan who requested the customized treats from the manufacturer in 1988.
Then-first lady Nancy Reagan eventually began using them as a replacement for cigarettes which had previously been available to passengers aboard Air Force One.
The M&M tradition continued with subsequent presidents with minor changes. During Bill Clinton's administration, the president's signature was added to the box and peanut M&Ms were made available as well.
The candy has since become a popular souvenir to have, with one reporter showing off his box on a BBC News Facebook live stream in 2016 with the comment: "The hottest thing you can get are the presidential M&Ms."
