The Dark Side of Candy

           Walking through the supermarket the other day, facing a long night of writing lab reports and papers for two writing classes, I came across something interesting.  Dark chocolate M&Ms.  Now I have seen the commercials with the two M&Ms and Darth Vader and thought they looked good, so I bought a bag.  Well, let me tell you, they are good and they make a sleepless night just a little better.

            While it isn’t the best dark chocolate out there, it is still a nice change from milk chocolate in a bag.  Although, from personal experience with friends, who like me bought a bag of chocolate to help them through at forty page lab report, people who already like dark chocolate will like these M&Ms.  Those that aren’t fans of dark chocolate are going to feel a little gypped and short changed by the new candies.

            Limited edition, I say they should be a main stay in the M&M family, right there next to peanut and peanut butter filled.  I thank Darth Vader, George Lucas, and the Yellow Peanut M&M (the Red one is a little to pessimistic for me) for bringing me something that made a long week of work a little more tolerable.
