C’MON! You had a great thing going last year with the Flavor of Hawaii Coconut Almond Kisses!! Call me a fat skeptic if you will, but I have a hard time envisioning these Pineapple Coconut Kisses as an upgrade.

My doubts lie in this simple fact: piña colada flavored junk just doesn’t impress. The only time I really enjoy piña colada is when it’s loaded with alcohol, and a lot of that is just the alcohol. It has to be a special place and time – the right mood – for me to truly get into a piña colada. For example, when I’m roasting in the sun and there are scantily clad women ignoring me in every direction I turn.

A sweaty, out-of-breath man eating white chocolate on the beach is no one’s idea of paradise.

Unlike many seasonal Kisses that contain a filling like the Carrot Cake Kisses, cookie bits like the Cupcake Kisses, or even a nut like the Coconut Almond Kisses, these Pineapple Coconut Kisses have nothing. The entire thing is a solid mass of pineapple coconut flavored creme.

If you ask me, these are severely lacking a rum center.

Where you at, Alek?

And even if I suspend my reservations, I do not care much at all for these Pineapple Coconut Hershey’s Kisses.

The flavor is very pineapple forward and, to its credit, that piece of the equation is accurate enough. But I get an overpowering white chocolate finish that doesn’t really remind me of coconut. The combination of pineapple and white chocolate begins to feel peculiar rather quickly, and there’s also something I can’t quite put my finger on… a certain chalkiness is the best I can describe it.

I really, really miss the almond, and at no point was anyone around me even remotely naked.

Flavor of Hawaii my ass.

Burning Questions:

  1. When was the last time you saw a naked woman? In my other web browser just a minute ago.
  2. What did you think of the Pina Colada Oreos? They were okay.
  3. What about piña colada jelly beans? They’re jelly beans… GTFO.
