Why do Reese's eggs taste so much better than regular Reese's peanut butter cups?
Do you have a favorite candy that's only available around holidays or special times of the year?

    starburst jelly beans

    took down a bag in 3 days (70% of it on the second day), felt super guilty and now I'm not letting myself buy any more candy this spring.

    I like Reese's Peanutbutter cups and gummy bears...and that's basically it for me. Not much of a candy guy and I think Easter candy has to be the worse...all that marshmallow...I don't know how people do it...just thinking about marshmallow makes me want to heave.

    My kid made me try a bubble gum flavored Peep.....I literally gagged on that shiz and immediately had to brush my teeth because I could feel the decay setting in.

    All the kids are grown up and out of the house. No more Easter Egg Hunts. No more Easter Candy. There is, however, an Easter Brunch.

    SO much truth. They are like 4,000 times better and my most favorite edible treat on the planet. Why CAN WE NOT have the eggs all year round. Epic fail Reeses... If you don't want to have the egg all year long, just keep making them and call them the Reese's peanut butter ovals. Problem solved.

    yeah the cadbury eggs are my favorite. actually the caramel ones i think are best.

    plus i like that they've literally been using the same commercial for years now.

    I just googled that. Since 1982. Crazy.

    Oooooooh kay, I forgot about these. I think the peanut butter ones are the only thing that comes close to rivaling the Reese's version.

    What's even better/worse? I can go to the gift shop and get these on "payroll deduction" right now...up to $500 worth...lol.

    My husband loves the black jelly beans (licorice flavored). They only sale them during Easter. So, he buys like 10-15 bags and saves them for the year! Lol

    Of course, they don't last the year
