The last time we were at Trader Joe's, they had 2 trays of samples out. One was a whole wheat wrap filled with avocado, tomato, and cucumber, which we couldn't stop eating. The other had these dark chocolate honey mints which I'd never seen before on previous trips, although I will admit that I don't spend a ton of time perusing the chocolate section.
The packaging for these mints make a big deal of the fact that they contain just 3 ingredients: chocolate, honey, and mint. The taste was like a subdued, slightly sweet mint flavor. The mint wasn't very strong but it also didn't taste a whole lot like honey. It was like combining them all together just dulled all the flavors a little bit. We're much more partial to the York peppermint patties and were hoping for some slightly sweet form of that, which would still be pretty minty. The chocolate shell was also a little harder than the softer chocolate coating of the York patties, which is more what we were expecting.
Buy? Probably not. Interesting idea, but we didn't love them.
