I tried Reece’s peanut butter cups for the first time yesterday. I didn’t know they sold them in Australia... they do... I ate them, then I ate more of them.
Nature's perfect food.
It's the perfect blend of milk chocolate and sugared peanut butter. And the way the serrated edge snaps when you bite it is so satisfying.
Do you have vegemite cups in Australia?
I think I needed to refrigerate them. I was told by an SL friend a very specific technique on how I should eat them... but they just kept melting!!
They are nice, but I think there could be a tiny more PB and a tiny bit less choc.
Mind you, the technique I was told does involve nibbling off some of the chocolate before eating... so that makes sense.

Vegemite is disgusting, if we didn’t have vegemite cups I would flush them down the loo!!! PollyPaperclip:
In the US, Reese's Cups come in a spectrum of varieties so you could easily have more peanut butter and less chocolate.
PollyPaperclip: really??? So you can buy more PB-y ones??? Ooh nice.
And yum ToriLok: I should try that sometime!!

These are great, but only available around Easter. They're larger and thicker than the cups. 
There's also the Big Cup 
mmmmmm
This is what I got? Are the normal ones? 
Wait... so mine were mini???! The middle ones must be huge!! PollyPaperclip:
YOU GOT RIPPED OFF!
Yeah, the minis don't cut it.
As with most candies, aren't the Big Cup ones about the same size as the regular ones of long ago?
No, they're quite a bit larger.
I always keep mine in the fridge and I buy the dark chocolate minis. I think the dark chocolate is a better contrast to the PB
Blasphemy.
DaisyDingle: Your bag even says miniature! LOL The egg-shaped version is the PERFECT ratio of peanut butter to chocolate, imo. But I will not turn down the regular version. I like to eat the chocolate around the edges first.
AlannaRobbiani: eating the chocolate from around the edges is one of the eating techniques I was told!!
Each type has a distinct flavor and texture but the original is my favorite.
BTW, they just came out with one with no chocolate. One type peanut butter outside, one inside.

DaisyDingle: the minis have a higher chocolate ratio- so you would probably prefer the normal size if you can ever find them
DaisyDingle: hi5!
Reeces's Take 5 is the single best candy bar on earth. Try one of those bad boys.
Allegory: I will keep an eye out, because that sounds perfect!
SexySiloPuddinPie: I’ll have a look! I didn’t even buy the PB cups. I was just talking about them with the admin staff at work and then she went and bought some on her lunch break!
SexySiloPuddinPie: Totally agree!!!
AlannaRobbiani - About the Take 5? Yeah, those are crack.
SexySiloPuddinPie: I just saw that too
SexySiloPuddinPie: Yes, Take 5!
