Size Does Matter

I don't like plain M&Ms. Peanut, peanut butter and the special holiday-edition mint ones I can get around. (If you haven't had the mint ones, you're missing out!) However, the plain ones, not so much.

That being said, I have no logical explanation for why I am now in love with the Mini M&Ms. They are so good, I had to start buying the fun size packages so I'd stop eating the entire tube in one sitting. However, they are just mini versions of the regular plain M&Ms. The only explanation I can come up with is, well, I guess size does matter.

(Hee hee--I'm snickering even typing that. I can't help it.)

Take 5 Candy Bar

Why have I never tried this candy bar before? I am not a huge candy bar person, but I bought this because it was on sale and sounded intriguing. Pretzel, peanut butter, caramel and peanuts, all wrapped in chocolate...

This candy bar has just about everything you could want wrapped into a made-for-any-mood chocolate bar--except nougat, but who really wants nougat? (The word even looks funny. Nougat. Blah.) That being said, why have I never heard of it? Hershey's needs to make commercials about this bar, because if I saw a picture of it, I would have ran out and bought ten right away. I tried one at work, shared it with two friends, and all three of us looked at each other with the "Oh-we-should-not-have-tried-this-because-now-we'll-want-one-everyday" look. On a personal note, I love that the candy bar is divided into two small bars--it makes me feel like I'm eating two candy bars.
