OMG, Philly, I think that we are alike! LOL I, too, punch the center out and eat that first….too much fun! As a matter of fact, I grabbed a bag of peanut butter cups from the store last night ( this post made me crave them), and ate to my little heart’s content! Somebody take these candies away! LOL!

There are all kinds of miniatures available for Halloween. I’m feeling inspired to do taste tests.

Sarah ^_^ My brother thinks there is a right way to eat a cupcake! He separates the top from the bottom and eats the bottom first :P

For the mini reeses cups I always eat the top part of chocolate first, then dig out the peanut butter center and finally the chocolate bottom. For the regular size I like to punch out the center and eat that first :D

I read the entire post from Daniel’s blog, and I gotta admit, I thought it was pretty cool! Now if only they could come up with a way for the peanut butter to not turn stale after sitting on the store shelf for too long! LOL

There’s another dilema, too..how to eat a Reeses! Do you punch the center of the peanut butter out of the cup and eat that seperate, do you eat around the edges first, or do you just go for the kill and take a bite? I think that it depends on my mood…after all, I don’t think that there is a wrong way to eat a Reeses…or IS there? :)

What fun those two obviously had! I had a good laugh and really appreciate their hard work (no mention, however, of frequent taste tests while between steps in the experiment, I mean, c’mon, how can you NOT eat that when it’s right in front of you?!).

I have always loved the little cups and thought it was probably the “more chocolate” ratio…now I know. But I still LOVE the eggs and pumpkins the BEST of all the Reese’s stuff…once again, it’s a texture thing, I swear!

I totally thought it was two little kids… when I scrolled down & saw the photos of the dudes with big ol’ sideburns I was a little taken aback…

ps- sorry, but NOTHING beats Reese’s Eggs & Pumpkins!

With all due respect, I’m afraid I must disagree with their findings *completely* I find the Big Cups supremely more tasty than the miniatures… I love all that extra peanut butter!
