McLean, Va is incorrect. Newark is incorrect.
 
I don't think you will find the answer easily on Google. This one is hard... Her Royal Highness Queen Ruth came up with this question.

Ruth has decreed that Monrein is the winner for a partially correct answer.

The full answer is: M&Ms candies are produced in Hackettstown, NJ and Cleveland, TN
 
From the Mars, Inc. website:
 
Mars Snackfood US
 
There are currently eight manufacturing sites in the U.S.: Albany, GA; Burr Ridge, IL; Chicago, IL; Cleveland, TN; Elizabethtown, PA; Hackettstown, NJ; and Waco, TX. Albany, GA produces COMBOS® Snacks, KUDOS®, CocoaVia® and SNICKERS® MARATHON. Burr Ridge, IL produces all of the frozen confectionery products. Chicago, IL produces MILKY WAY®, 3 MUSKETEERS®, SNICKERS® in the Fun Size® and Minis format and Dove® Promises® and MUNCH® Bar. Cleveland, TN produces all varieties of M&M’S® Chocolate Candies, and TWIX® Cookie Bars.   Elizabethtown, PA produces MILKY WAY® Bar, MILKY WAY® MIDNIGHT® Bar, 3 MUSKETEERS® Bar and DOVE® Chocolate. Hackettstown, NJ functions as both a manufacturing facility and the National Office for Mars Snackfood US. Four M&M’S® varieties are produced in Hackettstown: M&M’S® Milk Chocolate Candies, M&M’S® Peanut Chocolate Candies, M&M’S® MINIS® Milk Chocolate Candies and MY M&M’S® Custom Candies. Waco, TX produces the Mars Snackfood US non-chocolate products: SKITTLES® Bite Size Candy and STARBURST® Fruit Chews. The site also produces SNICKERS® Bar, the country’s number one chocolate bar.

Congratulations Monrein, You're up!
