Ah, so that's what your avatar is about. It shows what happens when you eat M&Ms :)

Maltodextrine powder works too. For those where lactose could be an issue. I have used them both. My experience is that neither lactose or maltodextrine are really sweet and both add body to the beer as both are unfermentable by saccharomyces.

The times I've used maltodextrin I've been a bit underwhelmed by the end result. Flaked barley does a much better job at filling out mouthfeel to my tastes.
