Where as the (small) eggs are a quick and satisfying bite. The mini-cups are, too, but I usually bite the thicker chocolate top off first. Over all, though, I definitely prefer the regular cups. (1) I'm a chocoholic. And (2) the seasonal and miniature varieties (foil-wrapped) both have a tendency to get more dried-out, even "fresh" from the store.
amen, sister!
Agree word for word your post, and I'll add that no-name brand pb cups are NOT the same as Reese's. I thought I was the only weirdo who ate the edges first.....

I just tried my first egg. I'd never seen these before until this thread. I've been drooling for them since this thing started, but with long lines and lack of time and money to buy any, I put off my craving for the egg until now.
I bought one egg at Walgreens for 69 cents, roughly the price of a cheap loaf of bread. It was soft and tasty, but left me weeping in disappointment. There were no magic bunnies or glittery confetti springing about the parking lot. No heavenly music or soothing warm sun beams. You guys made it sound like it was going to be an amazing experience. Well you were wrong. After I ate the chocolate and peanut butter lump, I realized that it was all hype, that this thread is just SPAM. Tofu obviously got a promotional royalty for his time, how else did he have such a massive supply and variety of Reeses candies?
My verdict. I like the rigid chocolate around the edges of the cups. I love the cups. Winner!

While we're still talking about candy... another question that might warrant debate or possibly even more empirical testing:
Are (plain) Hershey's chocolate bars and (regular) Hershey's chocolate Kisses really the same chocolate? Someone recently told me they were. I like the Kisses better as they have a smoother, more melt-in-my-mouth texture in my opinion... what do you guys think?

It probably is the same chocolate, I guess the flavor is the same, but I agree. The bars seem hard with their shape, and oddly more glossy. The kisses feel smoother and are great to melt in the mouth, although.... I always intend for the kiss to melt all the way, but I never make it halfway through the kiss before I chomp it up, swallow it, and move onto the next one, saying "Idiot, you forgot to let it melt, try again.... and again... and again"

Me, I munch enough Kisses that I could sell the wrappers as aluminum scrap!

Oh no you don't! You are NOT going to get me to buy, and consume, more chocolate. Uh-uh. Ain't gonna happen. I still have the eggs left over from my last testing.
(notice the eggs are the only ones left? )

Well, I won't suggest you go and buy more chocolate... but surely you have an opinion? Are Hershey bars and Kisses the same? Is one better? What does your daughter think? Oh, no, no need to buy more chocolate on my account.

For REESES, the cups win for me.
For EGGS, Cadbury paddles my canoe!
(don't know if Cadbury is an option here? I don't want to cross-pollinate the data... )
