Wild Cherry M&Ms

I bought a bag of Wild Cherry M&Ms at Food Lion on a whim. I'm not usually a fan of artificial cherry flavoring. But it was Wild Cherry, so I thought that must taste better. After all, I enjoy wild cherry flavored sodas. Big mistake. Wild Cherry M&Ms are equivalent to eating a chocolate bar and cherry cough syrup in one mouthful : X

Nobody in my house liked them. Even my dad, who loves all things cherry flavored, said "Um, they're...alright : P Okay, they're gross..." My mother offered the remaining candy to her co-workers. All of them found the candies disgusting, too. So a big thumbs down for this product.

York Mints

I recently spotted a display of York Mints at Food Lion. They were nearly $2 : P But I decided to splurge a little and give them a try.

The candies consist of a white mint shell, a layer of chocolate and some more mint filling. Two pieces was enough candy for me. York Mints are not one of those candies like Snow Caps or M&Ms that you want to keep popping into your mouth. It's not a matter of tasting bad; the candies taste decent enough. They're just lacking in something. I would have to agree with this from

...They’re not quite strong enough to be a breath mint and not satisfying enough to be a candy...
