If I was stranded on a deserted island, and I could only have five foods/beverages for the rest of my life, my list would be the following;
- Water
- Coffee
- Pizza
- OREOS
- Reece’s Peanut Butter Cups
I love Reese’s. I could eat them every single day if I could. Chocolate and peanut butter – what’s not to love about them?
I work with upper elementary school children. One of my kids has a severe peanut allergy. I jokingly said to her on Halloween to save me all her Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. It was all in jest, but to my surprise, she brought me all of her Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups that she got for Halloween – a whole bag full. I was in heaven!
I would have to say on average I enjoy a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup at least once a week. They are one of my favorite indulgences.
One day I received a package from Reese’s. Inside was their latest product – NEW! Reece’s Thins.
Inside the box I found two bags of the new Reese’s Thins chocolate peanut butter cups.
As you can probably guess, the new Reese’s Thins are thinner than the regular Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup.
Each bag comes with 18 individually wrapped thins. They are meant for sharing, but let’s face it, I share my Reese’s with no one (ha ha – just kidding).
A serving size is 3 individually wrapped Thins, with six servings per bag. Of course, you can eat as many as you want. I was trying (TRYING!) to be a “good girl” and eat only one, rather than the three per serving size. That way they would last longer (it wasn’t easy – I wanted to eat MORE than three each time).
Reese’s Thins look and taste just like regular Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, with the exception being that they are thinner than regular Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.
I went out and purchased regular Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups to see how the Thins compared to them.
As far as the size is concerned, the new thins are the same size as a regular Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup.
As you can see, they look pretty much the same. It’s not until you look at them from the side do you notice the sizable difference.
So as you can see… it’s the exact same Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups that you have come to know, except a bit thinner. In addition, the new thins come individually packaged so you can share them with family, friends and co-workers (and me!). Their individual packaging also means that you can enjoy the new Reese’s Thins on-the-go.
To be honest, I like the regular Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup and the new Thins equally. I don’t necessarily prefer one over the other. They are the SAME candy – just one is a bit thinner than the other.
Reese’s Thins are available in regular milk chocolate and dark chocolate. Milk chocolate will always be my favorite. The dark chocolate is good, but I prefer the milk chocolate more so.
Look for the new Thins where ever Reese’s are sold. You can also visit the official Reese’s website for more information.
Are you a fan of Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups? Have you tried the new Thins yet?
