Welcome To Taste of States a place where we celebrate the weird and wonderful food of the United States of America. This can be everything from the snacks that are available for a limited time to the foods that are classic traditions at events such as Christmas and Thanksgiving! Each week we will explore the facts and the history surrounding a different food.

WHITE CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE M+Ms

If there is one thing that is significantly different between the UK and the USA, it is the amount of different flavoured M+Ms that are available in the States.  The UK is still only home to a few basic flavours by the brand but the US literally have hundreds of different varieties, some are permanent others are limited edition. Today we look at a flavour that has now been made available on the market every year around Valentines Day.

Since 2017, the flavour White Cheesecake M+Ms have been available at limited times of the year. Each bag is filled with candies that are white and light pink in colour and they are filled with Cheesecake flavouring instead of chocolate. The sweets are only available at Walmart and could be purchased for $2.84.

There were various reviews of the sweet and apparently they taste like they are filled with a cream cheese frosting.  Another review stated that there was a distinct taste of white chocolate which balances the flavour out. So if you are in America next February, keep an eye for them!
