\"1<\/p>\n

What is Snickers Pecan?<\/h3>\n

Mars has created a new iteration of its Snickers chocolate bar for fall! To put it in simple math terms, Snickers – nougat – peanuts + pecans = Snickers Pecan. This one\u2019s just nuts, caramel, and chocolate.<\/p>\n

\"2<\/p>\n

So far, it\u2019s only hit the market in a limited edition 15-pack that comes in a drawer-style box. This release is all about Texas – the pecan are from Texas, the wrappers say \u201cProudly produced in a Mars Facility in Waco, TX.\u201d The graphics all reference the Texas flag, but in muted tones. \u201cTexas Proud,\u201d \u201cFixin\u2019 To Satisfy,\u201d and \u201cDig In, Ya\u2019ll,\u201d are printed on the box and wrappers. It\u2019s a beautiful presentation. <\/p>\n

\"3<\/p>\n

\"4<\/p>\n

How is it?<\/h3>\n

On first bite, these Snickers bars screamed THE SOUTH. Like you just picked them off the Formica counter of some sun-baked granny with a drawl who whipped them up along with a batch of pralines.<\/p>\n

\"5<\/p>\n

The chocolate and caramel were the familiar Snickers formula (although the caramel felt stickier to me somehow), but the pecans brought a deeper, darker nut flavor than the usual peanuts. It worked really well. They were very sweet and felt indulgent enough as a once-in-a-while treat as opposed to an everyday snack. I really missed the nougat in these (big nougat fan here) so I dinged them a point for that. <\/p>\n

\"6<\/p>\n

Is there anything else you need to know?<\/h3>\n

These were offered online only and sold out in less than 24 hours. No word on whether they\u2019ll be released in stores, but they SHOULD BE. They\u2019re far better than Fiery Snickers<\/a> and those got shelf space. Don\u2019t ask if you can have any of my 15-pack, it ain\u2019t gonna happen. <\/p>\n

\"7<\/p>\n

Conclusion:<\/h3>\n

If you don\u2019t have any sweet old ladies to crank out pralines for you, definitely get these. Even if you do, get them anyway. They\u2019re great, y\u2019all. <\/p>\n
