I just moved to the South, so I received a chunk of dark chocolate. The shell didn't melt, the oil did, and then solidified into large pieces.My wife loves mixing these into her popcorn. However, the area in which we live seldom has this kind of M&M for sale. According to her, the flavor is explosive and adds a dark sweetness to a savory bowl of popcorn. Or, you can eat them straight and enjoy their rich and chocolatey flavor. I would recommend this product.Very tasty.Package not marked as advertised with 49% or 5-% COCOA. Unknown if outdated product or just in older packaging? Like Dark Chocolate items. :-(It took forever for them to arrive and some of them were melted. I used them anyway.The M & Ms have dull color. And the chocolate on the inside has that light brown coloring that indicates old chocolate. The dark chocolate was expensive. Buy at your risk!I gave 1 star because they make you put something. It deserves 0 stars.Very disappointed in the quality of this product. TWO (2) bags of dark chocolate M&Ms - totally worthless!I enjoy dark chocolate, and mixing these M&Ms with the dark chocolate peanut M&Ms is a delightful snack.I will occasionally add cashews, as well.Great for film night.Entregaron m&MS de cacahuate con chocolate oscuro y no queríamos la opción de cacahuate
