Reese’s is one of my favorites too, but objectively it’s horrible, down there with hersheys chocolate. They successfully made it addictive, rather than taste like peanut butter or chocolate. Try something like a Trader Joe’s peanut butter cup and it’s a world of difference.
It won’t keep me from my Reese’s but at least I’m aware of it
Reese's tasted a whole lot better 20+ years ago. Now it's just gritty sugar with peanut butter flavored 'essence' added. Same goes for Cadbury eggs which are completely inedible now.
I always wondered about that but I don’t eat frequently enough to notice when it changed
Eating them infrequently is exactly how I noticed the change especially with the Cadbury eggs. It used to have a creamy center that has been replaced with what tastes like a spoonful of gritty Betty Crocker sugar frosting. Reese's are less obvious but also just taste like sugar (or HFCS) to me now and they were my absolute favorite as a kid as someone who's not really into candy.
Will do once I'm in the US, although I need to figure out an explanation for the vast collection of JD Vance memes on my phone first.
