8. Chili Nut

This was yet another flavor, along with the Coffee Nut ones, that was part of that promotion to vote on the new flavor. The Chili Nut flavored M&Ms, too, have the peanut base, mixed with a spicy milk chocolate.

It’s one of those flavors that’s not the best, but you just can’t stop popping them into your mouth (hence, why they got 8th place on this list).

I’m not always the biggest fan of spicy and sweet mixed together, however, this one wasn’t too bad. There’s not a whole lot to say about the flavor of this one because it’s very two-noted. You’ve got the taste of the milk chocolate, and then the spicy chili flavor.

Upon doing some research, I came to figure out that the flavor was just some chili extract mixed with ‘spices’ as the label said. And once you’ve had a handful of these, there is a bit of a spicy aftertaste that does linger for some time.

Needless to say, if you’re not a fan of tasting that for a while after eating some, or it doesn’t or won’t agree with you, then I’d stay away. Otherwise, I’d still definitely give these a try nonetheless.

Overall, Chili Nut M&M’s deserve a 7.1 out of 10.
