Now, don’t be alarmed — but fall is starting to creep up. Have no fear, there’s still a lot of summer to enjoy. It’s just that you’ll start seeing a lot of long sleeves, school supplies, and pumpkin flavors at Target pretty soon.
M&M’s just announced their latest fall flavor, and thankfully, it sounds like they’re staying away from the pumpkin craze. (That is, for now. You can’t forget that they released a white pumpkin pie M&M back in 2017.) Instead, M&M’s will focus more on what they’re known for — chocolate.
Just in time for Halloween, you can get your hands on Creepy Cocoa Crisp M&M’s. Of course, that only reminds the world of Cocoa Krispies cereal, which is highly underrated (and part of a healthy breakfast.) Seriously — why is there so much focus on Rice Krispies when Cocoa Krispies exist? It’s almost a relief that M&M’s took notice.
Like many new snacks and treats, these were accidentally found. Bustle reports that Instagram account mnmtwinz, which focuses on junk food, was one of the first to find them in stores. But even their Instagram claims that most Target locations may not have them out for sale just yet.
“For chocolate lovers such as ourselves, this easily beats many m&m flavors out right now (although peanut butter m&m’s will remain our top favorite),” the mnmtwinz state. “The dark chocolate is rich and a little bitter as dark chocolate should be, and the cocoa crisp is satisfying.”
And here I thought M&M's in cereal would come first, not the other way around. https://t.co/0wG9t84mCd

It’s kind of like a standard M&M, a dark chocolate M&M, and a crispy M&M became one. Even though peanut butter M&M’s are my personal favorite, crispy is a solid runner up.
As far as other Halloween candy does, there’s not a lot of word regarding what to expect. But, plenty of candy companies use the holiday to unleash spooky and delicious surprises, so perhaps those announcements are just around the corner.
Behold, our first six pallets (of probably 18) of Halloween candy.

It’s July.
Yes, you read that right...JULY!!! pic.twitter.com/vGaT9ug4vT
But, from the look of it, plenty of other retailers are all about saying sayonara to summer. As of now, it’s unclear as to whether or not this flavor will be available outside of Target. It’s worth looking for, since it might break into the top 5 of the most popular M&M flavors.
Will Gordon over at Deadspin rated the standard M&M in 10th place and gave his top three spots to M&M’s that included peanuts. It might not be a popular opinion, but at least he was honest.
Getting your hands on these Creepy Cocoa Crisp M&M’s may be a top priority. You were probably heading to Target anyway, so you might as well check and see if your store is one of the lucky few that are selling these M&M’s early.
