That texture plus the white and blue candy shells, which evoke the colors of Hanukkah or icy landscapes, would make the M&#038;M&#8217;s a nice addition to a holiday snack mix. You could call it a &#8220;wintry mix&#8221; to the delight\/chagrin of your party guests.<\/p>\n<p>Although the crunch is the highlight of the M&#038;M, it is an interesting choice for candy designed to mimic snowballs, which are obviously made of softer stuff. A crunchy snowball makes me think of that one sadistic kid in every neighborhood who packs snowballs full of gravel and ice. That kid deserves no wintry mix.<\/p>\n<h3>Anything else you need to know?<\/h3>\n<p>If you live in the Snow Belt like I do, you know you are at the mercy of nature&#8217;s whims. Luckily, you can always choose whether you want a light shower or heavy storm of M&#038;Ms. In addition to the 7.44 oz bag I found, M&#038;Ms White Chocolate Pretzel Snowballs are available in Single and Share Sizes.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion:<\/h3>\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\/2021\/10\/mmswcpretz4.jpeg?resize=600%2C450&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"White Chocolate Pretzel Snowballs M M s Festive\" title=\"mmswcpretz4.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Despite a great crunch, M&#038;M&#8217;s White Chocolate Pretzel Snowballs lack the sweet and salty punch needed to make an exceptional seasonal flavor.
