WHAT I THOUGHT

It is no secret that my family loves Mike and Ike. Whenever there is any around, we have a hard time staying away from it. The fruity flavors are just addicting! So I was kind of exciting when I found out that I would be trying their Merry Mix, Minion Mix, and getting a look at their seasonal Hot Tamales stocking stuffer!

I dived headfirst into the Minion Mix first. I love Minions and was anxious to try the blue raspberry and banana flavors. Oh my goodness! I never knew that those two flavors would be so wonderful together! It was like a party in my mouth. The banana flavor really tasted like banana while the blue raspberry tasted like, well, blue raspberry. But together, it was so good and juicy. Oh, and the packaging actually made me giggle. It was so cute!

The next one I sampled was the Merry Mix. While it has lime and cherry flavors, my absolute favorite was the Holiday Punch flavor. It embodied holiday punch, and just rounded the rest of the flavors. And did I mention how festive it looks? I might to chop some of these and add them to sugar cookies we'll be baking soon.

I love Hot Tamales and have for years. I think it all started in elementary, when I had something similar and I guess I just never lost my taste for them. They still tasted wonderful, and kind of hot after eating more than a few. But the stocking stuffer packaging is very seasonal. I mean, check out the fireball with a Santa hat on it! It has a To/From area on the back, if you can convince yourself to give them to someone. I love the little snowflakes!

Mike and Ike has definitely made my holidays sweeter.
