::MsRobyn has an impure thought as to what kind of face is going on the green M&M ::

**fear not. m&m’s are health food. each yummy little bag of plain m&m’s contain 4% calcium. with caramel…hhhhm perhaps 5-6%. will someone help me out with a bit of math, how many bags do i need to get for 100% of my calcium needs?
**

All candy is health food. Honest. I got in some calcium and some fruit (errr…vegetable, fruit…plant product) with the Almond Joy I ate tonight.

Ah, football concession stands. Entire meals can come from thee…

And I think I must definitely try these M&Ms now.

I FOUND them! I asked at 7-11 and the 7-11 boy said he had them last week. The look on my face made him hurriedly clarify: he has tasted them, bought them at a mini-mart across town. I went and bought 3 bags.
Advice:

1. Eat three M&Ms at a time to get the max. caramel charge, otherwise the candy shell interferes with the experience
2. Take 2 Units of R Insulin
3. Be happy
4. Put a bag in the freezer—frozen dulces!!!
   Muy bueno, M&M people, good job.

I’m gonna have to check out my local Mexican grocery store!!

Think they’ll have them in the suburbs of Chicago?

Slightly off the topic but deals with food:
I really really REALLY want some Fritos with Lime that I could get in Mexico! They were SOOOOO GOOD!!

Anyone around here have them in the States?

In Spanish “dulce de leche” roughly means “candy of milk”

Going shopping tomorrow.

I will light a candle tonight, and ask the Goddess for her assistance in finding these little chocolate-covered miracles.

**I’m still waiting to get my hands on some of those thoroughly disgusting-sounding Musk Lifesavers, which are apparently only available in Australia. **

I tried them whilst in Australia a couple years back… they taste like soap. Absolutely and thoughouly discusting. I couldn’t believe they sold them… but then they’ve got vegemite there too… ugh

as for the m&m’s, THEY’RE ONLY CANDY PEOPLE, SIMMA DOWN NA!!!
[sub]candy that i can’t get here as of yet… lousy m&m’s, probly don’t even taste good anyways…[/sub]

Good Goddess, nooooooooooo!
Don’t they know I don’t eat anything with a face? Whywhywhy this obsession with putting faces on our foodstuff?

[GingerOfTheNorth]

Um. Most of our food starts with a face. At least, if you’re an omnivore.

Umm I have some Tostitos with Lime sitting in my cabinet. I don’t know if that’s what you mean but they’re sooooo yummy I got them in Winn Dixie so I guess other places must have them too.

Just FYI… some vegatarians say “I never eat anything with a face.”
I don’t eat anything that doesn’t have a face…or chocolate. Except as a side dish.

Its basicall sweetened condensed milk. In south Florida they have dulce de leche everything. There’s even a dulce de leche shake at McDonalds (on the “South Florida New Taste Menu”). What I’ve always seen traditionally as “Dulce de Leche” is yellow cake drenched in sweetened condensed milk (http://www.lacabe.com/marga/food/recipes/dulce.html).

resurecting an old thread…

My buddy in Houston TX sent me a package of Caramel M & M’s yesterday and man are they good. I am the envy of my co-workers.

These are not available in N. MI yet, I hope they go nationwide wtih them soon.

[cmkeller]

Can’t wait until they get to NYC. They sound great.

Weren’t there minty M & Ms for a brief while? I was shocked that they were pulled; I loved them.

Ditto with the Mocha-flavored Nestle Crunch…

Maybe you guys had better hope that I don’t end up liking these caramel M & Ms.

[Doubting_Robert]

Healthy Choice has Dulce de Leche ice cream too. It’s pretty good. I suppose the higher-fat brands taste better, but some of us have to watch what we eat [sub][sup]darn it[/sup][/sub].

I remember chocolate mint M&Ms, too. They were good.

Regarding the “all M&Ms are the same colors” remark earlier in this thread, that’s not true at Eastertime. Then you can get pastel M&Ms.

[Flamsterette_X]

Okay, I am planning my next shopping trip as I type…

[li]ice cream! (hey, I’m almost finished my mint chocolate chip ice cream and don’t have any more)[/li][li]caramel M&Ms (if they have them here in Canada; by now, they must?!?)[/li][li]soup, bread, milk, pudding, Jello, juice[/li][li]other things I need to get[/li][/ul]

They sound pretty good… I like the peanut butter ones myself, but maybe it’s time to expand my horizons! (yes, I should watch what I eat, but there are SOME things that you just have to have…) Wooooooyeeeeeeeaaaahhhhh!!!

We had them in Iowa about 15 years ago. Fantastic things. What kills me now is the new color they are “voting” on: Pink, Purple, or (gag) Aqua. Wot-ell!? Even the blue ones aren’t proper. What they should have done is kept the tan ones and add in a dark green. That way, you’d have [ul][li]Dark Brown[]Light Brown[]Dark Green[]Light Green[]Red[]Orange[]Yellow[/ul][/li]
…and kept the autumnal color scheme. This technicolor business is just…too…smiley-like.
