I picked up Coconut and English Toffee tonight. My kids and DH always like to try the new ones. The coconut ones are super yummy! I really didn’t get much English Toffee flavor from the other, but they didn’t taste bad. I skipped the Jalepeno flavor one, but I’m curious about how hot they are. Anyone else try them? Attachments:

This is the first I'm hearing of them. Where'd you find yours? And I was gonna say "they've already had coconut M&Ms" but then I enlarged to see these are fancy PEANUT M&Ms... the coconut ones I've had before were plain.

I might have to look for jalapeno for DH's birthday - he loves chocolate and chiles.

I ran into Walmart to get son some Gator Ade as he is sick and saw them and couldn't resist. Got all three, but have only tasted the English Toffee ones. I was not real impressed with them. Anxious to taste the other, but am full from dinner. Will post back once we try them.
ETA: Tried the Jalapeno and was not impressed at all. Tasted like regular Peanut M&Ms, with a weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee tinge of after taste spicy. I love anything coconut, so of course I liked the coconut ones. The regular chocolate coconut ones taste like coconut, but these new ones had the toasted coconut taste to them and were yummy. Probably nothing that I would buy again. Just not knock your socks off flavors.

Tried the English toffee. Was disappointed,tasted like butterscotch not toffee.
Have the coconut but haven't tried it yet. As for jalapeno,yeah no. We have no interest in spice with chocolate.

Can't stand coconut, so won't be trying that - but the other flavors sound interesting - thanks for the heads up!

I bought a small pack of the toffee kind and thought they were just meh. The other new ones didn’t sound remotely good to me, and I normally like coconut. Honestly the ones I like best are the mega peanut ones with the bigger peanuts. I could eat a giant bag of those all by myself.

I liked the Toffee one, but agree they are more butterscotch then toffee.
Tried the jalapeño ones, it was weird they are hotish but mostly they really tasted like jalapeño. Normally when I have had jalapeño or other spicy chocolate it is mostly just heat you get, but this time you could really taste the jalapeno.
I haven’t tried the coconut ones yet, saving those for last!
We got ours at Walgreens.

I was at the M & M store in Las Vegas over the weekend and tried all 3 of them - they were all pretty good but The English Toffee one was way too sweet!!

I have all three waiting to be tested. The toffee ones are not the best. I haven't tried the other two yet.

I've tried the coconut. I like them but I couldn't eat very many. (Which was sort of lucky as I can normally demolish a whole bag then regret it!)

Not interested in trying any of them. I tried the coconut when it was out before (without the peanuts). I would like to try the toffee but after the responses here, I won't. Hubby would love the chile one I bet. I may buy him a bag to try. Maybe leave a love note with a bag in his car to find when he leaves for work.

I think I’ll grab DS some of the jalapeño ones for his Easter basket.

I wish they would make these nut free. The coffee nut was really good, but I would have like it more without the nut.
I don’t like nuts in my chocolate.

I tried the toffee ones. They were OK. I also found them at Walgreens.

I tried the Jalepeno ones. For the first few bites all you taste are the peanuts then you start to get the slight burn of the jalepeno. They were good enough but nothing I'd buy again.

I tried the plain coconut ones last year and they tasted artificial. None of the those flavors sound good, but mega peanut sounds great.

Well the only one that I would like would be toffee but guess I won't rush out to get any...

My favorite was the Chile that was around several years ago. I found them twice and then never again. They were delicious! I wish I could find some now! Jalapeno is just such a different flavor than chile. :/ I am not interested in trying any of the current flavors.

They used to make coconut M&M's years ago (6-7??) and I was upset that they discontinued them. I loved them. I probably won't be able to find them here. No one usually carries any of the special ones here. I heard they made some with Nutella just recently, and I keep looking and haven't been able to find them.

i believe i tried the coconut flavor a few years ago when just plain coconut came out. i didn't like it and i LOVE coconut. i believe the new coconut flavor is Thai Coconut Peanut. i don't think i will try that.

jalapeno with peanuts does not sound like a good combination to me, at all. If they were PLAIN M & M, that might be different.

i live in canada and we don't get all the crazy flavours you guys do (except kit kat - geez - there has to be 200 kit kat flavours out there including matcha and even green tea i think?!?!)
i don't even like m&m's. i find the chocolate crap. smarties.all.the.way.
BUT... i recently discovered the caramel m&m's. ummm... i really do like *those* m&m's.... a lot...

Just bought 3 packages of the jalapeno, and coconut. The coconut says it's Thai coconut, so we thought it might be spicy, too, but it wasn't. It was really good! Haven't tried the jalapeno, yet.

This isn't coconut like before, this is Thai coconut and it tastes like a cross between a curry and a bathroom spray. Not a fan.
The jalapeno don't really taste like jalapeno, they're just a bit spicy. Not the same as the chili ones they had before but similar. These are my favorite.
I really did not like the toffee.
