That was the worst suggestion ever. Not only do we have an asinine (TM) in brackets, it is opened by a { and closed by a ). Use � if you're dead set on the Trademark symbol being used in a quotation, anyway.

Besides, I'm pretty sure that Campbell's spell it "mm".

Well, we can just use � since that was the original intent... Sorry the suggestion wasn't up to par with your usual brilliance.

It's "platypi". And the more I think about it, it seems like Campbell's use some nonsensical apostrophes in their slogan. Perhaps it's "m'm". Too bad I can't be bothered to look it up.
