3. Peanut

Ahh. What a classic! This flavor is such a classic cult favorite for many (me included), that I just couldn’t make this list without including these ones. In fact, you likely expected these to rank at No. 1, didn’t you? But hear me out! I feel like you either love these or you don’t.

Peanut M&M’s can stand to be a bit underrated at times I feel. Most people probably think that they’re so basic and boring that they don’t taste like much of anything. WRONG!

Peanut M&M’s are such a heavy favorite of mine. It’s just got that classic chocolate-peanut taste that you just can’t resist. Especially with the peanut variety of M&M’s, it so impossible to just take a handful and be done. Another handful later, and then another handful later, you’ve gotta go get another bag to share with others and hide the evidence!

If you like peanuts, and you like the classic flavor of milk chocolate M&M’s, then these will be your fave. I just love popping some into my mouth and tasting both strong flavors. The peanut flavor doesn’t overpower the milk chocolate, and the chocolate surely doesn’t overpower the flavor of the peanut.

Overall, to put it into perspective, the peanut M&M’s taste like an elevated version of the classic milk chocolate ones too.

Overall, Peanut M & M’s deserve an 8.7 out of 10.
