Coconut M&Ms!

January 6th, 2010 No comments

Apparently Coconut M&Ms have been available as a limited-edition flavor for the past few months – who knew? I haven’t seen them around here, but I try to stay away from the candy aisle to avoid temptation.

Starting this month, Coconut M&Ms are now a permanent addition to the M&M collection. They look like a great and tasty tropical flavor, perfect for any Polynesia Addict. Now if only they would make Piña Colada M&Ms, I would be a very happy camper!

Have you seen Coconut M&Ms in your area or tried them yet?
