Shock-A-Lots (caffeine heaven!)

Postby txKingfisher » Sat Mar 24, 2012 3:35 pm

So I'm working on using up the rest of my Hurricane Ike era MRE's and look what I came across in one of them today.....

Take a hyper-caffeinated coffee bean, dip it in dark chocolate, then candy coat it. Thats a "Shock-A-Lot"
It's as much win as you can get without throwing in some bacon somehow.....
(Also since it was in an MRE that means they are shelf stable for 5 years! WOOT!)
They sell on the civvy market for $11 for 12 packs. $2 flat rate shipping on orders less than $40 and free shipping on orders over $40.
A steal if you ask me. (if you want to order some for your self it shouldnt be hard to find them with some minimal google-fu, or PM me for the webite of the manufacturer)


Disclaimer: I have no affiliation with this company and I'm not trying to push their products. Just sharing a great product that I came across accidentally in my preps.

I always pack peanut m&ms and coffee and Shock A Lots seem like they're a perfect mix of the two. Mmmm! I've never seen them before though. :( a hunting I shall go. Thanks!

Would buy these in Milk Chocolate or Carob. Cant stand Dark Chocolate.

I have had chocolate coated roasted coffee beans before and loved them.
