OK, finally got ahold of a small individual bag of the coconut M&Ms at a gas station in Melbourne, FL (don't ask). While they did have the tropical fakey-coconut flavor which was fun, I only thought they were OK.
Take a look for the kinda new Hershey's product called Almond Joy Pieces. They also have York Pieces, Reese's Pieces (of course) and one other one I think.
Here's a link so you can see what the bag looks like:
http://www.hersheys.com/products/detail ... JOY+PIECES At least I hope it will come out as a link
Anyway- these guys have actual coconut texture- you gotta try 'em out!!!! Yum!!!

Of course I'll never find them in Canuckia. Ugh...
Dumb and drunk as I was, you know I would do it all again.

Never did find them here.
However, like someone here suggested, the Almond Joy "M & Ms" are outstanding!
Now these are FULL of coconut!

Someone who lives between us in GA said she found some at her Rite Aid store.
Might want to check there is you have one of those around.

I've had both. The Hershey Almond Joy ones are way better.
But I wouldn't turn down a free package of the Coconut M & M's
