I had my hesitations, of course, because oftentimes I find that food supposedly flavored as pumpkin really just tastes like &#8220;fall&#8221; (nutmeg, spices, etc.) and not really pumpkin itself. Beer is the perfect example of that. More spice and less pumpkin.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m super happy to report that the White Pumpkin Pie M&#038;M&#8217;s DO in fact taste like pumpkin pie. But boy, are they sweet. Not in a bad way, just in a &#8220;You better be ready for dessert way.&#8221; The sweetness becomes more prevalent as you go, and there&#8217;s also a nice cinnamon aftertaste to them. I could only eat a small handful each time I opened the bag. <\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/White-Pumpkin-Pie-MMs-3.jpg?resize=599%2C429&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"White Pumpkin Pie M M s 3\" title=\"White Pumpkin Pie M&#038;M's 3.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"599\" height=\"429\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When I bit into one for a cross-section photo, that&#8217;s when I could see the inside looks like white chocolate, which is the first ingredient listed on the bag. (Above anything pumpkin, please note.) Now I&#8217;m wondering what white chocolate flavor M&#038;M&#8217;s comes up with next&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I did like these a lot. So much so that when my husband tried to hijack the bag to take to a work meeting, I immediately stopped him because I enjoyed them so much and wanted the bag for myself. (First rule of marriage: Let your wife have all the candy!) They&#8217;re a good fall treat and good for grabbing a quick handful as I enjoy my morning coffee.
