Reese’s: Americans' chocolatey love affair
Chocolatey Reese’s treats are brought to you straight from the US of A! The Dream Team here at My American Market LOVES—like, really loves—Reese’s. Every month, Caitlyn and Cristal, our team members based out of Brooklyn, send us a package from the US so that we can taste test new products. And whenever we find out that Reese's have arrived in the mail, everyone rushes into the office to be the first in line for a bite! Once, someone showed up as early as 6:50 a.m. out of pure excitement! We won't name names, but they know who they are...
We've got an inventor named Harry Burnett Reese to thank for our collective obsession with Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and other chocolate and peanut butter treats! In order be able to provide for his 16 (!) children, Reese really needed to come up with the invention of a lifetime. And clearly, he did just that! After (many) years of working in the dairy industry, then as an employee at Hershey, he eventually decided to start his own company, The HB Reese Candy Company, which sold all sorts of candies and chocolates. But it wasn't until 1928 that his American dream really came true, when he developed the very first Peanut Butter Cups, which he sold for just a penny apiece. At the time, chocolate was still a luxury. But mixing it with a less expensive product like peanut butter brought it within reach of many more households, and its popularity soon took off! And the rest, my dears, is history. In 1963, shortly after the tragic death of its founder, Harry Burnett Reese, Reese's was acquired by The Hershey Company. Though for years Reese's was America's best kept secret, Hershey is now helping the brand make a name for itself on the international stage.
Chocolate and peanut butter, a match made in heaven
Inimitable and impossible to resist, Reese's is now well-known by chocolate lovers around the globe. And we definitely eat our fair share of Reese's here at My American Market, that's for sure! Reese's are so incredibly popular among the entire Dream Team that it would be impossible to say who loves them the most. Well, maybe not poor Sylvia, who's allergic to peanuts... Sylvia, if you're reading this—don't hate me, but you're really missing out 😂 Don't feel too bad for her, though, she makes up for a lack of Reese's with plenty of other American sweet snacks, trust me! Today, the number of different Reese's creations that have existed over the years is somewhere in the hundreds. There are the classics, of course, like Big Cups and Reese's Pieces, but also tons of different seasonal goodies, like Reese's Easter Eggs and adorable chocolate-peanut buttery ghosts and pumpkins for Halloween. Reese's also offers lots of fun and colorful Christmas-themed treats. The brand has even launched its own line of peanut butter spreads, sauces, and toppings.
