Pina Colada Almond Joy

Any body else tried the new Pina Colada Almond Joy? It is mildly pineapple flavored coconut covered in white chocolate with the usual almonds on top.I thought it was good, but much prefer the regular chocolate Almond Joy or a Mounds.

Oh that does sound good to me, though. I haven't even heard of it, let alone see it!

I find it a little bland. I think they should have left the almonds off the top, used a little more pineapple flavor, and added a touch of rum flavoring. (Voila! A Pina Colada Mounds)!   By the way, DanaJ, our Wal*Mart SuperCenter is where I got mine. They have single bars and 6-packs.

I tried it and I thought it tasted too sweet and artificial, not like real coco and pina! You can't really taste the white chocolate, if it really is the covering!

Thanks for the top 6star! I will have to check out a walmart, or just keep my eyes open from now on. It also sounds like something my dad would like:)

Laurie in smalltown Northwest Georgia actually the only thing white chocolate and regular chocolate have in commen is that the both have cocoa butter in then---but then so does my wifes tanning lotion and that doesnt make it chocolate---i LOVE white chocolate but it seems that if its white and its got cocoa butter in it,its white chocolate--and NO white chocolate is "real " chocolate.

Pina Colada Almond Joy is nasty .. as is the Key Lime flavor and the Passion Fruit flavored ones .... Orange KitKat bars are wayyyyy yummy and taste like a Dreamscicle

Has anyone seen the cherry flavored Kit Kat they have out? I haven't tried them but have been curious as to what the flavor tastes like. As for the Pina Colada Almond Joy, I love coconut and I love Almond Joy bars, but the taste of Pina Colada makes me want to run to the bathroom. Something about the mixture of coconut and pineapple that just doesn't agree with me. I can't even stand the smell of a Pina Colada drink. Has anyone also seen the Strawberry flavored Hershey bars. What companies won't do to make a buck.

I've had the key lime almond joy and they are awesome..but the passion fruit one tastes like death! I even called the company thinking I'd gotten a bad batch.. they sent me out a few freebie coupons.. I've also had the raspberry white hershey bar.. it was ok. The cherry cordial and peanut butter flavors of Kisses are pretty good as well..

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks the Pina Colada Almond Joy is nasty. what a disappointment. I don't like my old favorites messed with. But then, I'll never get used to green ketchup.

 This is the first that i have heard of it,and haven't seen any lately.i think it is an attempt to appeal to the Hispanic market,since KoolAid has pineapple,Jamaica(hibiscus flower flavor) and mango powder drinks.Jello used to make a mango jello I liked,but can't find it any more.
