They're candy covered chocolate bits.

Pretty much like M&Ms if you've had those.

I love PEANUT M&M 's!!

Along the same (sort of) topic...

What kind of candy bars in Canada are NOT available in the US? I'd like to stock up! Can we somehow complile a list?

Also, didn't I see a thread in here one time where someone mentioned a list of foods not available in the US, or substitutes or something like that? Or maybe it was a list of WHERE one could buy favorite Canadian foods?

There's a website in my signature that lets you buy Canadian foods.

And it depends where you're moving as well.

I'm moving to Southern Cali and my fiance says Coffee Crisp isn't very common down there.

I never thought the day would come when I then admitted I liked M & M's over Smarties...lol.

I had been back to Canada on visits, bought some Smarties. Nope just didn't cut it. My teen son said the same.

I prefer Smarties versus M&M's. Just hard to find them here in Cali.
