"It's buttery."

If you could choose any flavor to become an M&M, would popcorn be one?

That's right! M&M's has recently created a saltier, more buttery version of its famous candy: "chocolate popcorn"! Only just released, it's already causing a stir on U.S. grocery store shelves. With its normal chocolate shell but super-crispy center that's supposed to mirror the taste and crunch of freshly-made popcorn, the Chocolate Popcorn M&M seems to be a perfect addition to your family movie night.

If you're an interested fan, there are three size options: a large 7.44 oz bag, regular shareable 2.83 oz bag, and a smaller 1.35 oz bag. So bring plenty of these to the party!

Snack Instagrammer @theimpulsivebuy tested the new candy and gave it an overall score of 8 out of 10.

Apart from the Chocolate Popcorn M&M's, the company has recently introduced a few other new fun flavors as well, including the White Chocolate Sugar Cookie M&M's, which will debut shortly before the holidays, in November. 

(As for us, we're still looking for a bag of popcorn-flavored M&Ms to taste-test! Can anyone hook us up?)

What do you think of popcorn-flavored M&Ms? Would you give them a try? Tell us in the comments!

Hi! I've lived in the NOVA region most of my life, repping our sports' teams, finding unique and cozy coffee shops to indulge in, and exploring nature hikes I've never visited. I used to live under the mountains in Roanoke, VA as well as a handful of beaches in NC, but good ol' Northern VA had always called me back! I write novels for fun (currently working on a fantasy series that won't have a terrible ending like Game of Thrones, right?), and enjoy reading and diving into new experiences that help me grow.
