Mo’s Dark Chocolate Bacon Bar

Mo’s Dark Chocolate Bacon Bar is a chocolate bar with real bits of bacon. They describe it on the package as being 62% dark chocolate with Hickory smoked uncured bacon and Alderwood smoked salt. It tastes like your standard dark chocolate candy bar. You wouldn’t know that there was bacon in it unless someone told you it wasn’t kosher. It has a little bit of a salty taste, but you can hardly detect any bacon. It’s good. It’s just not bacon-good. I was a little disappointed. I wanted more bacon. It was way too subtle. If you’re advertising a bacon candy bar, I expect to taste some fucking bacon. For shame, for shame.

Mint M&M’s

Sometimes you want a mint. Sometimes you want some chocolate. And sometimes you don’t want it to melt in your hands. That’s when you need to get Mint M&M’s. Look for the teal/sea foam colored package with the Sexy Green M&M on the label. It’s kind of creepy that a cartoon candy spokeswoman can be so seductive, but who am I to judge those advertising geniuses? Mint M&M’s are made from dark chocolate as opposed to milk chocolate like most M&M’s. The result is a rich chocolaty taste with a sharp mint sting. The Mint M&Ms come in two colors: green and light green. They taste the exact same. I can’t eat a whole pack in one sitting. They get boring and bland after a few bites, so I share to get rid of them and let people think I’m being generous. Then they share their candy with me when I don’t have any. It’s the perfect crime.

Mint M&M’s

M&M’s are a staple of a happy childhood. M&M’s are bite-sized chocolates with a colorful candy shell. You should know this already, even if you didn’t have a happy childhood. Sometimes when a product is successful, they add more shit to the original formula to make it better. With M&M’s they added peanuts, peanut butter, pretzels… and now they have mint flavored M&M’s made with dark chocolate. It’s a sexy flavor with the sexiest spokescandy (the green one). It has a smooth chocolate mint flavor, it is like an Andes mint but crunchier. It tastes good and it’s refreshing, but it won’t make your breath smell better. You shouldn’t rely on candy to hide your halitosis anyway.
