Original. Peanut. Peanut Butter. Dark Chocolate. White Chocolate.
Wthout question, M&M's rule. Unless of course candy coated chocolate doesn't appeal to you. In which case you are either Nicole Ritchie or Satan.

Original.
But that fits in with my general attitudes.
And I've never heard of white chocolate

When "Pirates Of The Carribean 2" came out they had bags of M&M's that were candy-coated white chocolate with little pirate symbols (skulls and such) printed on them. My vending machine at work actually still has a few packs!

Ah. Due to assorted tooth problems and my refusal to slightly adjust the other unhealthy habit in my life (mainly Coke) I more or less cut candy out of my life several years ago (occasional bag of Skittles, still) so I'm out of the loop, I guess.

Peanut butter was my favourite, but I haven't seen them up here in years. I dig the peanuts as well.

DUDE! WTF? I feel dor you if you can't get 'em. Peanut Butter are awesome! They have them at my local Food Lion by the "Large Size" bagful. I love their misshapen goodness. Wobb-knobs of peanut butter covered in chocolate covered in candy all willy-knilly in diff'rent shapes. Like Reeses Pieces that don't give a F@$%K!

I actually do recall rather enjoying the peanut butter ones. Perhaps my original vote was incorrect...
As to the Coke question... no comment

Comics are a bit different.
I go every week for my fix, spend all my money on them, and am emotionally impacted in their absence

But still, which ones do you really look forward to? Anticipation can be half of pleasure. Comics demonstrate this magnificently.

Not to get off-topic of MnMs, but let me name
Ultimate Spider-Man
Young Avengers
Shazam Monster Society of Evil
Walking Dead
Daredevil
All Star Superman
Astonishing X-Men
and many more...

We used to have them, and maybe they're still around, but I haven't eaten any in ages.
Do you guys get almond m&m's? They're pretty damn fine.

Congrats. By eating M&Ms, you're supporting slave labor in the Ivory Coast.
Forgetting the ethical issues, there's the fact that Mars & Hershey chocolates just plain don't taste good.
Try some Gheradeli.

Almond does not belong in chocolate.

Almond is like the 3rd or 4th best nut to cover in chocolate. Well above peanuts.

There is no "g" in "nosh".
You have no taste in nuts. Clearly you have not been nibbling the right ones.

Are there Gheradeli M&Ms? If so, I choose those. They'd probably be a good bit more expensive than regular M&Ms though.
I never knew about the child labor issues until now.

I don't like almonds unless they are thinly sliced and on a salad or cooked with fish or chicken.
Chocolate covered cashews, now that's a good idea. I've never had a chocolate covered pistachio or macadamia nut, but I imagine they're quite good too.

Cashews flavor tends to be a bit bland to offset the chocolate. I've never had pistachio and chocolate ouside of ice cream. Chocolate macadamias are delicious but REALLY rich. Maybe TOO rich.
Pecans. That's the one true path.

I was ready to say peanut, but I had no idea there were dark chocolate m&ms. Are there dark chocolate peanut m&ms? Because that would be pretty lovely.

I'm going to have to find some covered pistachios now. That sounds good.

I've been told that they test marketed caramel M&Ms, but they were so well-recieved that they cancelled them for fear of taking sales away from regular M&Ms. I think I would like caramel M&Ms. Bastards.

Not for me it's not. I'm slightly allergic to them. Makes my tongue a little itchy and numb when I eat them. Not all the time though, so it's a bit weird.

Now I may just be showing my complete ignorance of all things M&M, but here in the UK we only seem to have Original, Peanut and Crispy.
Out of those three I'd have to go with Crispy, that extra crunchyness puts them a notch above Original

I also use them to thicken milkshakes. Yummy.

The U.S. used to have crispy ones, but I don't see them any more. Almond ones are great!

The rest hold barely any appeal to me.
I like the almond and peanut butter ones. I also like that you can customize them.

MEGA M&M's are milk chocolate M&M's and Peanut M&M's but are about twice the size.

The only m&m's I dislike are the minis, they're not substantial enough to amount to much in my mouth.
