Hersey's Bars

Type: Limited Edition Hersey's Brownies 'N' Chocolate
It takes few bites for the flavor to emerge. This chocolate bar has bits and pieces of brownies. In term of flavor, it is mild and slowly disappearing. The chocolate and brownies does not mix too well together.

Rating: 3

Type: Limited Edition Hersey's Almond Joy
So far, this is my favorite. I love Almond Joy so i know i am going to enjoy this chocolate bar. The chocolate is rich and creamy. The coconut and almond bits are plentiful.
Rating:8

Type: Hersey's Special Dark
Another very popular Hersey's bar. It is slightly bitter. After few bites, i could not taste the dark chocolate. This chocolate bar simply does not have enough flavor/substance. A huge disappointment!
Rating: 4

Type: Hersey's with Crisp corn bits.
Again, Hersey's chocolate is too sweet. The corn bits are plentiful and crunchy.
Rating: 5

Type: Hersey's with Caramel, Naturally and Artificially flavored.
Compare to the rest of Hersey's Bar, the packaging on this bar is much smaller in size. It is perhaps an attempt from Hersey's to distinguish its limited edition from the others. Hersey's definitely would like to successfully sell this Hersey's with caramel bar.
The caramel has a goldish color and it is stringy and tasty. I like the caramel more than the chocolate. Overall, it is an OK chocolate.

Type: Hersey's filled with Peanut Butter, King Size!
I am saving the best for last. I am a huge fan of peanut butter. I love Reese's and convinced that they are the best peanut butter chocolate mix in the world. So when i discovered Hersey's attempt to compete with My Favorite peanut butter chocolate company, i took the challenge seriously.
The peanut butter is smooth and creamy. Reese's has a much nicer texture and taste even better. In addition, Hersey's chocolate is too sweet for me.

This bar definitely has tons and tons of chocolate layers. It is overwhelmingly chocolaty and creamy. It will make a big mess if it has been under a hot sun. Too much chocolate is never enough right :)

This chocolate bar is delightful. It is soft, loaded with lots of roasted and salty peanuts with crispy peanut butter crunch. It has a similar consistency with Butterfingers but better and more peanuts.

Take 5

Type: Marshmallow Take 5 made with pretzel, peanut butter, marshmallow creme, peanuts and milk chocolate. ( Limited Edition)

Type: Peanut Butter Take 5 made with pretzel, caramel, peanut butter and peanut butter candy.

Origin:U.S.A

Manufacture: Hersey's

Purchase from various liquor store in San Francisco.

My favorite among the three is the Original Take 5. I think Hersey's should just stick with the original. The original has great flavour. I love the crunchiness of the pretzel, chewy and stringy caramel and the sweet and salty taste of the peanut butter.

Rating: 9

The Peanut Butter Take 5 is too much for me. It is overload with peanut butter. I like peanut butter but not that much! I feel that it is too filling, too rich and the flavour too intense. I just had 2 bites and i could not finish them.

Rating: 7

The Limited Edition Marshmallow Take 5 has a very interesting flavour. In my opinion, it taste funky and definitely, not a good combination.

Chick-O-Stick

Type: Crunchy peanut butter and toasted coconut candy
Origin:U.S.A

I love coconut and peanut butter and look at what i have found! Chick O-Stick.

Chick-O-Stick is made from peanut butter, granulated sugar,corn syrup and toasted coconut. It is a bright orange stick coated with coconut. This candy is crunchy, a bit salty and tasty. It is slightly chewy, nutty and has plenty of coconut flavour.

Reese's Elvis Presely Peanut Butter and Banana Creme

Type: Peanut Butter and Banana Creme

Origin: U.S.A

Company: Hersey's

Purchase from 7' eleven

Banana is one of my favorites fruit. I constantly have banana at home , either i have it in the morning in my cereal, by itself, banana bread or have it with ice cream for desert.

So... when i heard that Reese's is coming with a new product' peanut butter and banana creme,' you can only imagine my anticipation and excitement. Reese's did not disappoint me. This is one of their very best product witha very very very good flavour combination. A hint of banana with creamy chocolate peanut butter hmmm... yummmmyyy!!

Mary Jane Peanut Butter Kisses

Type: Chewy Peanut Butter Taffy

Origin: U.S.A

Manufacture : Necco

Purchase from Walgreen's at Divisadero St, San Francisco

I saw this bag of candy recently when i was shopping for Halloween but decided not to purchase it. This morning when i saw 'Mary Jane' again at Walgreen's, i just had to buy it. I can tell you this; i love anything with peanut. So when i saw the cute and smiley 'Mary Jane' on the package, i just could not resist. Further more, i have never seen anything on the black, orange and 'Mary Jane ' orange wax wrappers. Necco actually print the wax wrappers with picture of Mary Jane. How cool is that !!!

The taffy smells of roasted peanuts. I just cant stop smelling them! It is soft, chewy and tasty. I love how the peanut butter in the middle of the taffy sort off act like a glue that hold them together. And of course, they are darn good!
