Oh how I miss thee...

wafflesocks · 11 months

I went to France two summers ago and saw these in a train station. I bought so many bags. When I was going to England, the lady asked me if I had anything to declare. A mixture of nerves and excitement over my stash of crispy m&ms led me to tell customs, "I have a ridiculous amount of m&ms..." She just stared at me and told me to move along.

SammyLocked · 11 months

Can someone please tell me why these are sold everywhere else but the US? I don't understand why discontinue them in one county, but not another.

givindabees · 11 months

Why did they take these away? I never heard one person complain about them.

Also, screw pretzel.

psymonsaid · 11 months

no way!!! crispy was way better then pretzel.

mr_burito · 11 months

they are still around where i live :L

PhifeFromATCQ · 11 months

In Ireland these are easier to get then the originals, eating a bag right now infact

lunchbawx · 11 months

Hey OP, it's pay day tomorrow. PM your address and I'll send you a bag from Australia.

ColdHotCool · 11 months

Ha, sorry.

Over here in the UK the three types of M&M's are Chocolate, Peanut and these Crispy ones.

They're still made and distributed, but only to worthy countries.

ksandifer138 · 11 months

They always get rid of the good shit. Crispy M&Ms, shake em up fries from burger king, 3D doritos. It's a sad, sad world :(

jewunit · 11 months

I wonder how differently people would think about the pretzel M&Ms if they didn't package them in blue. They're not that bad, but I agree with everyone else. Fuck pretzel M&Ms. It's like when a step-parent tries to replace a biological parent. They might not be that bad, but they aren't the original.

AJ_Chapman · 11 months

Still have Crispy in NZ. We don't have Pretzel. Mate bought a pack home when he visited the USA. Christ they were tasty! Wish Pretzel was sold here.

wearetherowboats · 11 months

These still exist in Ireland.

otaku175 · 11 months

Protip: they sell these in one hundred yen stores all over Japan. I love that country so much.

SometimesY · 11 months

I used to buy a bag and stick it in the freezer and eat them after they were frozen. It was so good. :(

dollinsdv · 11 months

You can still order them from Germany:

Wish they would just sell them in the U.S. but I'll take them however I can get them.

littleego · 11 months

Every time I see a blue bag I hope and hope, preying its crispy ugh how i hate you pretzel M&M's

[deleted] · 11 months

Here's some other material that will make you cry. 25 Foods You'll Never Be Able to Eat Again (spoiler alert, Crispy M&M's are #1).

miss_tasti · 11 months

I ask people all the time what the hell happened to these and everyone forgets they were a real thing! SCREW PRETZEL

nbenzi · 11 months

THESE WE'RE THE FUCKING BEST M&M'S EVER!!

BUT HAVE NO FEAR THEY ARE STILL IN CIRCULATION IN EUROPE!!

I BOUGHT A 1LB BAG OF THEM AT AN AIRPORT IN PARIS!!

(it's caps and bold b/c this is some important shit)

edit: it seems people before already informed reddit of this. I regret nothing.

BigBearSteve2 · 11 months

Butterfinger BB's are the candy I miss most. So. Damn. Delicious. Especially frozen.

I'm still waiting for the triumphant return of Crystal Pepsi.

carmensandiago · 11 months

i always get excited when i see M&Ms in the blue package, but then i get my heart ripped out by the god damn pretzels...

Akronite14 · 11 months

I loved these but the pretzels are nearly comparable IMO.

captainsymphony · 11 months

TIL that not everyone has access to crispy M&M's. These babies are EVERYWHERE in Australia.

SonicFlash01 · 11 months

"Crispy ___ " is roughly equal to "Peanut Butter ____ " and "Caramel ____ " in terms of chocolate candy prefixes; God Tier.

RoadWarrior7779 · 11 months

Fresh from Germany!

saminik · 11 months

you can buy these everywhere in the UK

so good.

dickmiller · 11 months

America doesn't get these but they are still available other places around the world. My mom used to travel for work constantly so I always had a good supply

rawbamatic · 11 months

I had forgotten all about these..

skisaj12 · 11 months

Nostalgia Alert!

anchorsteamy · 11 months

Oh man, didn't realize they were even gone...

TrueGlich · 11 months

Airborn93 · 11 months

I don't know if they're still around here in Texas but oh God those were the shit. My brother and I used to call them scooby snacks when we were kids because thats how fucking good they are.

NeleH · 11 months

Yep, we have them in Belgium too! We had to wait for over 500 days to have a government, but we still have the best M&M's in the world...

bergertree · 11 months

The orange m&m is the forever alone of the candy world.

DangerMouseToby · 11 months

Stocked up on them the one Valentines day they were around, and couldn't believe they never brought them back.

RighteousCookies · 11 months

Miss these and the peanut butter and jellyu M&M's they distributed about and year and a half ago. So grossly amazing...

FaceSander · 11 months

I found a few packs of these in MRE packages a year ago. Delish.

rxanderq · 11 months

They still have these in Hong Kong. They also have crispy mint M&Ms.

SprinkleMcSparkleson · 11 months

They still sell them in Australia!!!!

SuperOtter · 11 months

These were my favorite candy growing up. My best friend and I made a drunk decision to buy a smallish bag of them from France for $20 a few weeks ago. Compared to the ones we had in the USA, they're small and have way too much chocolate and not enough crispy. We were so disappointed.

Ginsoakedboy21 · 11 months

I'm from the uk, and when I visited NYC, I went to the M&M store to get my friend some peanut butter flavoured ones. (We don't have them here.)

Weird fact - despite being three floor high (and basically a very scary place) the M&M store only sells original and peanut flavours. That's it. I had to go to supermarket in the end.

lamqta · 11 months

Still have them here in Europe.

I GUESS COMMUNISM AIN'T SO BAD

The_Greetest · 11 months

I loved crispy M&Ms, as well as many other flavors. Back in late middle school/early high school I would often buy a 1lb bag and finish it in about two days. Crispy was actually 14.5oz instead of 16oz, but I forgave them. Then one day I noticed Crispy was now 12.5oz and other flavors were around 14oz. I swore to never buy M&Ms again, and have maintained that rule for the last ten years.

(note: I sound like a fatty, but I was a competitive athlete and could eat anything without gaining weight)

[deleted] · 11 months

those were the fucking shit

infernalspawnODOOM · 11 months

My question is how much different are pretzel M&M's from these?

8bitnitwit · 11 months

Confirmed to still exist in London. Though only in annoyingly small bags, at least from my local newsagent...

quick_thinkfast · 11 months

Still for sale here in Austria.

Enjoyed some the other day in fact.

NowTheyllNeverKnow · 11 months

They still sell these in the vending machines at my college.... I feel so lucky; I savor every packet.

Buffslug · 11 months

Still available in Australia, in fact I might go down to the local and grab a pack.

Brewster-Rooster · 11 months

My heart skipped a beat when i saw this, luckily, i live in ireland, the land of crispy M&M's

auto_pilot · 11 months

The only reason I clicked on the comments was to see where someone had found them...

Pratchett · 11 months

We still got them in Ireland.

GlotMonkee · 11 months

crispy m&m's are the daddy. I live in the north east UK and they are near impossible to find, i only know of 2 shops near me that sell them. we dont get the pretzel ones and i gotta say, im happy about that.

mixmasterteapot · 11 months

The crispy mint ones when Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull was out were the best.

IronMikeT · 11 months

The pretzel ones are shitty crispy ones

blueburnsorange · 11 months

I love those crispies!

uranushertz · 11 months

Why can I only upvote once?

Another reason why it sucks to live here in the US.

lucasjamali · 11 months

We've still got these in the U.K. They removed them last year, but now they're back!

FreeDirt · 11 months

...They were discontinued back in 2005. You haven't had a need for them until 6 years later? :(

They were discontinued in the United States in 2005. They are still available in Europe, Australia, and southeast Asia.

Wikipedia Page.

hisinfernalmajesty · 11 months

We still have these in England, although they aren't the easiest to find... ASDA (our Wal-Mart) had them for £1 a bag (185g) the other week, I bought like 10.

Xodarkcloud · 11 months

still aval- in quebec city, canada.

alefgard · 11 months

I loved them, but I love the pretzel ones more. I'm apparently an anomaly.

kersplash · 11 months

These are still around in England, this thread reminds me i need to send my american friend a few bags for christmas!

The best part of visiting Amsterdam was the PURE JOY I felt when I saw a bag of these in a convenience store.

tobias10 · 11 months

beluga_tiger · 11 months

Sometimes I eat the Pretzel M&Ms, and pretend they are the crispy kind. It's the closest I can get.

Romulox88 · 11 months

I KNOW RIGHT!

1st time I saw the pretzel one's I was like "THEY BROUGHT IT BACK!" but sadly no, the pretzel ones arnt bad I must say, better than the rest for sure.

thafezz · 11 months

god dammit... where in the fuck are these at? They were awesome..

gmsone · 11 months

No; these.

shiften · 11 months

I can't emphasize just how much I agree with this. Worked in Dublin two years ago, bought a new bag of these from Spar everyday.

anonalias · 11 months

Every time I pass the m&m's I can't help but look for them. They were my families favorites! At least the pretzel ones are somewhat like them, no where near as good though

mcrguy18 · 11 months

they still sell these where i live......so HA!

freekstyle · 11 months

UH, YES PLEASE.

I want a pack of these so bad. I have been waiting years for these to come back.

homebythefence · 11 months

We still have these in the UK :) want me to send some? :D

qwertytarr · 11 months

Man, the pretzels are super addicting though.

vicksvaposnort · 11 months

I think about these at least once a month and get sad every time I remember they are no longer available

kitkatkatydid · 11 months

it's like a mini kitkats with candy coating, i really do miss them

SublaciniateCarboloy · 11 months

Those are still around in Canada. Delicious.

riskybizmusic · 11 months

RIGHT!!

EdwardRMeow · 11 months

Every time I see the Pretzel packaging I always get a little excited because I think they finally got their heads out of their asses. But noooooooo.

faaarmer · 11 months

Trade you for peanut butter M&M's? I'm an Aussie :(

Perry_1_ · 11 months

We have them in the UK still. I would gladly trade them with a USA'er for some froot loops

mattj7 · 11 months

yea and wtf is this pretzel bullshit, is this supposed to be an acceptable substitute?

Dude, same.

brollout · 11 months

American in Europe- love having the crispies here but miss the almond m&ms!

This WAS my favorite candy

Gauntlet · 11 months

I'm pretty sure I ate these around a month ago.

OryctolagusCuniculus · 11 months

We have them in Germany, but they're not the same as the American ones. The colors aren't as bright and the crispy inside tastes like there's hazelnut in it.

Rubix89 · 11 months

I'm not alone...

Beanz94 · 11 months

There should be a US/UK Peanut Butter M&Ms/Crispy M&Ms swap. I love the peanut butter ones but you can only get them in import shops here, and at £1.50 a bag...

ghostbackwards · 11 months

even that M&M is like, fuck this stuff. It's gross, I'm outta here.

BloodyNobody · 11 months

The Dulce de Leche M&M's were god tier.

Federation12 · 11 months

These are my favourite :) They're in every supermarket in New Zealand, I buy a family bag everytime I go past the candy isle.

cracktacular · 11 months

Lol I was actually eattin these the other day.. You know, cause they sell them everywhere

killerclown6939 · 11 months

i feel you pain brother. pretzel m and m's have been filling the void.

annoying_emoticon · 11 months

still got em in england muahaha

bonsaipinetree · 11 months

The only reason I eat pretzel m&ms is to feel a glimpse of what the crispy m&ms used to taste like.

SpankYaHams · 11 months

Ditto! Pretzel m&m's can suck it. You get approximately 8 pieces per bag.

rawrslagithor · 11 months

Everytime I see those imposter Pretzel M&Ms, I always say to whoever might be around, "do you remember crispy M&Ms?"

They always say, "nope, but have you tried Pretzel M&Ms? They're pretty good." And the people are ALWAYS older than me. I'm 18, how is it that you're 30 and don't remember crispy deliciousness?!

rage.

Hyptic · 11 months

We have them here in Canada. They're one of my fav ones. :)

gtkarber · 11 months

Europe still has them, but don't be deceived! The European Crispy M&M's have a strange aftertaste, and -- in general -- aren't as good as the Good Ole American variety.

thavi · 11 months

can't unsee

ZaneRockfist · 11 months

Is it like a wafer inside or what?

Lostways · 11 months

I would love for them to bring these back to Canada. I was tricked by the pretzel bag when it first came out. Such a let down

firecrack0r · 11 months

You just rubbed salt in an old wound.

Jaycohen · 11 months

pretzel M&Ms are good but not as good as these.

turkishgamer · 11 months

Anyone know where I can get them in NY without paying $21+ for shipping

TriSkeith13 · 11 months

After years of desperately craving these, I saw the blue package out of the corner of my eye when in a Quik Trip gas station. I immediately set my cup down and walked over there to the "Brand New Pretzel M&M's". Out of rage I took the entire box up to the cashier and demanded to know what they were. When he told me they were in fact, not my delicious Crispies, but some disgusting creation of Satanic Origin.

Needless to say I cried out in a primal bellow that still echoes in my mind as I threw them in his face with the force of an anrgy god as I stormed out. Needless to say it makes us both feel awkward when he requested a transfer and got transfered to my regular QT.

[deleted] · 11 months

Pretzel M&Ms have replaced these. I'm not sure which are better

[deleted] · 11 months

As someone else has pointed out, we have these in England. One thing that I'm really pissed off about is Peanut Butter Kit Kats. Where the FUCK did they go? They were bliss.

pb_n_banana · 11 months

I miss them too :( found a site where you can buy a big bag though: germanshop24.com

kryptonik_ · 11 months

I have a friend who travels quite frequently, and she always mails me a pack. Last package I got was from Thailand.

rabbitambulance · 11 months

Maltesers. Look into them.

Dman757 · 11 months

Best M&M version ever. Fuck the new disgusting salty pretzel rebranding.

youwot · 11 months

im eating a big bag of mixed m&ms right fucking now

mightyjake · 11 months

Peanut M&Ms are the the way to go!

tuna_HP · 11 months

Maybe I'm truly an outlier or maybe everyone on reddit is stricken with a cancer-like case of nostalgia, but never cared for the crispy M&Ms and I think that the pretzel M&Ms are the single best mass market candy.

Coreo · 11 months

We still have these in Sydney! I'm going to go grab some at my local shop.

PedroDelCaso · 11 months

They're still kicking on in Australia

jackgopack4 · 11 months

Fixed... http://i.imgur.com/rh9KT.jpg

super_infinite · 11 months

Awww I miss these too. Why did they discontinue making them?? Pretzel M&Ms have been my temporary fix...but it's not the same.

Chronophasia · 11 months

I loved these. What exactly was the reason for no longer selling them in the states? Everyone else can still enjoy them.

scmger · 11 months

soooo much!!!

jaamzw · 11 months

hated them.

DazzlingDuck · 11 months

I don't get it, they still make them in New Zealand...
