Kit Kat Mint

There are few flavor combinations as perfect as mint and chocolate, but the candy industy has generally done a poor job bringing chocolate mint products to market.

There aren't many chocolate mint products generally available, and a number of good ones have, for whatever reason, come and gone. It's hard to improve on M&M's, but Mint M&M's did just that, and they're gone. Hershey's Cookies n' Mint bar was very good, and it's gone.

Now Kit-Kat has produced a chocolate mint product, and it's labeled a "limited edition." I hope that label is just there to tease us, and that the mint Kit Kat is here to stay. It tasted good, with a nice mix of milk chocolate and mint and the usual texture and soft crunch of a Kit-Kat bar.
