Peanut M&M’s have fallen from grace. While they used to be the strong second fiddle to regular M&M’s, these classic, lumpy candies lag behind newer flavors like Pretzel and Peanut Butter. (Next year, we’ll even see a flavor variant of Peanut Butter M&M’s.) But Peanut M&M’s are coming back! We got our hands on the brand new Toasty Holiday Peanut M&M’s—the 2024 M&M’s holiday innovation—and they’ve got big shoes to fill.
Per the official description, Toasty Holiday Peanut M&M’s feature caramel-roasted peanuts infused with cinnamon, vanilla, and spiced sugar. That’s a whole lot of good stuff, but does it live up to the promise of its lengthy list of flavors? Read on to find out.
Where can you buy these new M&M’s?
Toasty Holiday Peanut M&M’s are available anywhere M&M’s are sold – aka, everywhere. So far, I’ve personally seen these at CVS Pharmacy, Target, Walmart, and a Pilot gas station in the middle of nowhere. These are sold in a couple different sizes, from single-person packet to family-sized sack. My recommendation? Pick up the biggest container you can find, dump them into a glass dish, and become the grandma you want to see in the world.
To me, they taste like coffee, not like maple. That’s not a good thing, because I don’t like coffee.
absolutely demolished these. I’m glad I tried them and I want more, so good!!
My family tried them and no one liked them. To us they had a strong coffee taste (kind of like Timamisu). We bought a Share Size package and still have over 3/4 of the package left. We can’t recommend them to anyone.
I just bought these new M&M’s yesterday and tried them. They had a definite coffee-ish flavor to me and tasted strongly of artificial flavorings. I’m not a fan of the Toasted Peanut flavor.
These toasty POS’s remind me of burnt coffee with chocolate. NOT good. I strongly recommend against.
Those M&Ms are gross! Dont get any!
It’s mentioned here that the PB&J M&Ms are a next year (2025) thing but they’re totally available now in Nov 2024. I have a bag right here in my living room lol
