    Chocolate. Coated. Coffee beans. Good dark chocolate, surrounding whole a roast coffee bean. So you get the chocolate "kick", then a crunchy, suckable, lump of caffeine goodness... These are not going to last long ... Herself has discovered the packet ... :sigh:

    I remain unconvinced. Send me a test-package, and I may change my mind :-\

      Better late than never I suppose. They make them with different chocolates and different beans as well if you weren't aware :thumbsup:

        I tried those back in 2012, when a buddy and I were running the Flying Pig Marathon[^], and he'd brought some of those along in addition to the usual sports gels. Those. Things. Are. MAGIC.

            I'm not a coffee drinker, but I'll go through a bag of these in no time at all. If I was a coffee drinker, I suspect I'm the type who'd have 8 cups a day. Just as well I'm not.

              I tried those a couple decades ago, and they're just the thing for an all night coding session; not so good for restful sleep, though. I haven't seen them in stores for a long, long time now, but I still remember how addicting they are. Yummmm!!!! :-D Will Rogers never met me.
