For those of you who could drink pumpkin spice lattes year-round, you’re likely loving the fact that fall is right around the corner. Apparently fall flavors will be here before the fall season because M&Ms just released their White Pumpkin Pie flavor, and you can find bags of these candies on store shelves now! Yes, Pumpkin Pie M&Ms are a thing!
It may not be time to bundle up in a scarf just yet, but that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy all of the pumpkin and cinnamon tastes of cool weather season—and you have M&Ms to thank for that.
Stores such as Wal-Mart reportedly already have the fall-themed candies available for purchase. And the candy is due to roll out in major grocery and convenience stores in the coming days.
If you just can’t wait to get your hands on them, they’re also available for purchase online for just $4.50.
The candies feature a white chocolate center that’s infused with pumpkin and spices that’ll make you feel as though you’re eating a slice of pumpkin pie (in August!).
Too Soon For Pumpkin Pie M&Ms?
Apparently—folks online have mixed feelings about these M&Ms and their timing.
While some seem to be looking forward to “everything pumpkin season,” others are already missing their regular chocolate M&Ms.
I got pumpkin pie m&ms today. Let the pumpkin flavor obsession begin! #pumpkin #readyforfall

“Uuummmm….I love pumpkin pie and all…but these don’t sound good at all,” wrote one Facebook user.
But, on the other end of the spectrum people are speculating about how delicious these will be.
“I feel these will be amazing,” another wrote on Facebook.
Regardless of how you feel about pumpkin spice flavored everything, the fall season is coming. So there will be no avoiding your favorite foods getting a fall twist.
Halo Top has already announced a limited edition Pumpkin Pie flavor and Starbucks will be rolling out the classic Pumpkin Spice Latte in stores.
So, you’ll soon be seeing “pumpkin” everywhere. M&Ms just decided to start the trend a little early.
Will you be getting your hands on this special fall item? They seem pretty hard to resist.
