So I try to keep the foods that I review fairly nutritious, but let's face it - sometimes we just need some candy. When my friend Heather told me about these new pretzel M&Ms, I just couldn't resist a sample (or two or three...). I have always loved the salty/sweet combination that chocolate-covered pretzels provide, and here you get that same idea in the little M&Ms we all love. Somewhere between a peanut M&M and crispy M&M (whatever happened to those anyway?), these pretzel M&Ms hit the spot as a perfect movie treat, candy dish filler, or post-lunch sweet.
I am always intrigued by the ways traditional candies try to stay fresh for consumers (3 Musketeers Mint, Crispy Reeses, Dark Chocolate Milky Way, etc.) but this may be my favorite one in a long time!
I certainly don't want to get in the habit of trying every new candy out there, so instead I ask my readers: What new twists on old favorites have you tried? 3 Musketeers Truffle Crisp, Limited Edition Snickers Fudge, Limited Edition Coconut M&Ms, Starburst Summer Fun Fruits, others??

for as much candy as i eat, i'm surprised i hadn't even heard about the candies you listed at the end! i've been curious about these m&ms and honestly a bit scared to try them for fear of getting hooked! i'm also a huge sucker for anything dark chocolate! sometimes it works out...like Milky Way Dark and sometimes not so much (I'm talking to you kit kat!)
ReplyDeleteI just saw those the other day and was almost hoping I had glanced so quickly that I read it wrong for that same fear...that I would LOVE them! I love the crispy m&m's and who doesn't love choc. covered pretzels, I knew they'd be good. Darn you!!!
ReplyDeletehaven't tried any of those new candies...trying to not get hooked on anything else!!
I tried these! They are delicious. I got suckered by a display of them. I'm also a big fan of the midnight milky ways. I can't say I've tried the others though.. although I might have to try! I bet if they are put in an aisle display I would grab a pack :)
