Eww! Who wants candy that tastes like a cat?

I’d like Mexican-style M&Ms with a hint of cayenne.

Seconded!

The last time my Mom went to the UK she brought me a Marmite flavored chocolate bar. It was delicious! I fully expected to like it, but it was far better than I anticipated. Chocolate and Marmite really go together unbelievably well.

I’d settle for just being able to get the American flavours. I have to stock up on dark chocolate and peanut butter whenever I’m over there.

> I’ve never seen wasabi M&Ms, but I recently got a package of wasabi peas at the supermarket. The peas are flash-fried (I think) and coated with wasabi. Crunchy and delicious. And fewer calories than M&Ms!

Similarly, I had some wasabi beans the other day. Same comment. The surprising thing about them is that the initial burn is really intense - like freshly-made English mustard, including the fumes-up-the-back-of-the-nose sensation - but it vanishes without a trace in a couple of seconds. It reminds me of the description of a taser: it really, really hurts until the current is shut off, then there’s hardly even a memory left.

Tabasco M&Ms would be awful. Too much vinegar.

I would like to see M&Ms with candied orange peel in the center - preferably dark chocolate.

I put Tabasco on Hershey’s chocolate bars. Tastes great.

I don’t know if they’re still around but M&M’s premium line had coffee among the flavors. I loved them, but I think I was one of the few. Haven’t seen them in a while.

And I agree, a coffee flavored cereal would be great! Especially if it was caffeinated, I could skip a step in the morning. 🆒

Canada had a Cinnamon Kit Kat for a while (maybe they still do?) It was… uh… not my favorite…
