Mid-November: Holiday Chocolate Review

[hummingwolf]

Think of those milk chocolate-covered cherries, chocolate mostly filled with liquid, a candy that tastes somewhat artificial even though you could swear that that must be a real piece of fruit in the center. M&M's have a Cherry Cordial candy that does an excellent job of replicating that flavor, so you can now enjoy it covered with a red candy shell and without anything dribbling down your chin. I can't really say that these particular M&M's candies are good--but I get a craving for the chocolate-covered cherries about once every three years, this is the year, and these candies satisfy that craving.

(A little research tells me that Cherry Cordial M&Ms have been released into the wilds before this year, but unless I'm repressing some previous encounter, this is the first time I've tried them.)

Yeah, Palmer may or may not be real chocolate, but sometimes (usually around Halloween for me) it satisfies those sugar cravings. A little bag of peanut butter eyeballs can be fun!
