Two and a half things about the Indiana Jones M&Ms.

So I just picked up a couple of packages of the Indiana Jones themed M&Ms. One of the packs if for review (the new Mint Crisp flavour) but I figured I’d pick two packs up to check out all the cool new features for this movie. (P.S. the half is the fact that there’s a new flavour).
First of all the new packages have a picture from the classic films with an M&M character in costume delivering a witty line.
Man I sure hope Dr Jones didn’t break anything.
Secondly all the M&Ms have new little symbols on them. Some look kind of like skulls but most where just indecipherable. I found one in the mint pack that looked like and M with a hat, but other than that it’s pretty much just a guess as to what they’re supposed to be.

Motherly Update Day

I’m on the phone with my mom right now, I’m listening to her talk about all the phone problems she’s having right now. It’s kind of sad, I bet a Caramilk Deluxe would make her happy. Too bad she lives too far away to get her some right now.

Click here to review.

No S’mores… A message from the fine folks at Hershey’s.

“With summer just around the corner, I wanted to share some fun, summertime s'mores recipes. Toasted s’mores have been enjoyed by families and friends around the campfire for more than 80 years, and the great news this summer is that the classic combination of ingredients found in s’mores - milk chocolate, graham crackers and marshmallows - is no longer reserved for the campfire. Toasting marshmallows over the grill or wrapping pre-made s’mores in aluminium foil and heating them on the grill makes a perfect dessert to accompany a backyard barbeque.

If the weather won’t let-up, the oven, microwave and even the freezer can be used to create perfect s’mores treats. From S’mores Sandwich Bar Cookies to S’mores Ice Cream Pie, www.smoresfun.com features a host of great recipes and cooking suggestions from the experts at The Hershey’s Kitchens.”

Microwave S’mores never worked for me I may have to investigate this further.

European Bulk Part 9

Two kinds of cherries and a random flower thing, this is going to be ok.
Big Cherry: It’s big chewy and cherry, I really have nothing creative to say.
Small Cherry: Much like the big cherry above only less big and more small.

Fruity Flan: Marshmallow bottom and fruity top, I like the top more than the bottom.

Purple Flower: I thought it was grape for a minute, then it turned into a perfume flavour, happy then sad were my emotions.

Where is the love?

What they heck happened to my Aero bar. It’s all full of love and stuff. What I want to know is which chocolate treat has the courage to change its name to hate.

Here are just a few of the bulk treats I’ve been avoiding due to fear.
White Cube Things: It taste like a soapy chewy pine tree, very gross.
Peas and Lard: Peas licorice gross, Lard flavourless thankful flavour wasn’t lard.
Just in case you don’t believe in this snack, here’s a close up.
Purple Little Cylinders: Really chewy and kind of soapy flavoured, almost plastic like.
It’s a torturous day for Candy Critic.

Candied Salmon Problem

This weekend some fine friends of mine picked me up a cool little gift while on vacation on the west coast. It was a bag of Candied Smoked Salmon.
I love when my friends pick me up strange and fun candies while on vacation. The question I have is weather or not this is a candy? Should I review it? I’m a little stumped about this one. I’ll most definitely post something, but I’m not sure if it’s BLOG or review material.

Today I decided to go with things that are a little less threatening, although I am a little apprehensive of the gummy apples.
Gummy Peach: A little chewier than other gummy peaches I’ve had I think I like them a little more.
Brown Wire Things: Cola flavoured and apparently they do not conduct electricity.
Gummy Apples: Subtle flavour at first, then it got a little yucky.
