Reese’s Pieces have been a special treat of mine since way before a certain extraterrestrial made them popular. These candy-coated confections come in a muted color palate of yellow, orange, and black — like the leftover colors that kids don’t really want to eat, which I never understood, but to each his marketing own.

Pieces don’t have quite enough peanut buttery goodness inside to counteract the domination of the hard candy shell. Each Pieces should be twice as filled, or I should be more patient and let the outer shell dissolve on my tongue first. Also, for some reason it never seems like there’s quite enough Pieces in the single serving bag — better get two bags!

No mess, unless it’s a really hot summer day and you leave them in your hand for several minutes. But, who does that? Put them in your mouth, silly!

I have two favorite beverages I enjoy with this delicious candy: Ice-cold milk and Coca-Cola. Both merry perfectly with the peanut butter to hit that refreshing spot. Besides, double-fisting your beverages is fun!

Of course the perfect film for these candies is E.T. - The Extra-Terrestrial (Widescreen Edition). Gertie bets her hamburger on it!
