5. Pretzel

First of all, the packaging along on this flavor just does it all for me. It shows an M&M with an X-ray in front of him showing a pretzel in his stomach. It’s so hilarious, it goes to show marketing goes a long way. While the bag itself is a great little gimmick there, the flavor outdoes the outside of the packaging by a long shot.

You can see it here: CLICK ON THE PRETZEL BAG.

This particular flavor is that perfect balance between salty and sweet all in one little bite. This variety is made with milk chocolate, but being an avid lover of dark chocolate, these would’ve been much, much better with dark chocolate. However, the milk chocolate is sweeter and does work well with the bit of salty pretzel on the inside.

This variety is fairly similar to the crispy flavor (that will be mentioned in a later slide, so stay tuned). The crunch you get from biting into these Pretzel M&M’s is unlike any other.

It gives a whole new dimension to the already perfect classic M&M’s, but with a little extra flavor combination that we’ve always been missing in these cult classic chocolate candies (until they were released, of course).

Overall, Pretzel M&M’s deserve a 7.9 out of 10.
