The M&M's are the large size, like the peanut butter ones. They are white, orange and yellow and the inside is candy corn-flavored white chocolate. I didn't really think I'd like them, as I'm not a big fan of white chocolate and the idea of candy corn flavor kind of freaked me out. I have to say, though, they're really good. The flavor is subtle. There are times when I was eating them that I really had to concentrate to get the candy corn flavor instead of just generic white chocolate sweetness. I like the ratio of crunchy shell to creamy insides. I wonder what a regular plain M&M would taste like if it was in this bigger form. I think I would love those, but you never know. In any case, I definitely recommend these to get you in the fall spirit.

I have to try these, just don't think I'll be able to get them in the UK
I'm so jealous, here in the UK we don't get much of a variety in terms of m&m flavours. I've never even tried candy corn because it's only on sale in specialist shops =( Are there any British sweets that you haven't tried yet but are curious about? It's interesting for me to read about other views of British food.
Su, I'm trying to think of something to compare candy corn to, but I can't think of anything. They're pretty unique! (They're also really cheap here...about a dollar a bag.) There are tons of British sweets that I would love to try. I've been to England and Ireland a few times and each time I've tried as many candies as possible, but I really want to try things like candy shrimps and pineapple chunks.
I don't know how much posting them would cost but I could definitely send you some things sometimes. You can get those shrimpes everywhere here, sometimes weirdly they are packaged with the banana sweets that are made from the same 'foam' candy.
I still need to try these, but regarding the bigger M&Ms - did you ever get a chance to try Mega M&Ms while they were around?

Thanks Su! That's so sweet of you!
Hey Rodzilla, Yes, I did try those when they were around. I can't quite remember what I thought of them, although I seem to think that they didn't jazz me. I prefer the regular size.
As always I am doubting that these will come to the UK... shame really as they look really damn good
