Evaluation of Sugar Free Reese's


The Sugar Free Reese's look great. Unfortunately their taste leaves much to be desired.

The sugar free peanut butter is okay, but the chocolate is asinine. I don't quite understand how Hershey's can befoul chocolate to the extent that they have. They're a company devoted to chocolate! Come on! Have some standards!

The chocolate dissipates in your mouth like an over-chewed piece of gum. It doesn't possess the rich and creamy texture of regular chocolate which slowly melts on your tongue. It's sweetened with Maltitol and sucralose (Splenda). Maltitol has a problem as an artificial sweetener in itself-- eat enough and it acts as a laxative. Upon comparing the ingredients, I could not determine what caused the chocolate disturbance. I will keep investigating though. Maybe the Maltitol...?

The numbers--
Price (1 cheap -> 5 very expensive): 3

They're substantially more expensive than regular Reese's.

Quality (1 awful -> 5 wonderful): 2

The peanut butter filling was decent...

Authenticity (1 not at all similar -> 5 can't tell the difference!): 1

No where near the creamy majesty of regular Reese's.
