Kraft Marabou M's: Crunchy Chocolate Peanuts (like M&Ms!)
Whilst in a discount store recently I spotted these "M's", described as "Milk chocolate coated peanuts". They're made by Marabou, a Kraft-owned Swedish brand that are apparently quite popular in their native country. Infact there's been a legal case between Mars and Kraft/Mondelez over the trademark for these due to their obvious similarity to Mars Foods M&M's. See here: http://www.confectionerynews.com/Manufacturers/Mars-and-Mondelez-wage-M-M-s-trademark-war-in-Sweden?nocount Admittedly, when I saw them I immediately thought "Oh, a knockoff version of M&M's!" I wouldn't usually buy such a product, but they were very cheap and are made by Marabou (whose Salty Licorice Bar I've reviewed previously ), plus I was curious to see how they'd compare to M&M's. The main big difference is that they don't have coloured shells like M&M's, just a boring shade of dark brown: They were very pale...
