I found the lingering chocolate peanut butter aftertaste to be a tad bit saltier than usual, which is the cookie bits doing. As a habitual ice chewer, I enjoy crunchy textures but I expected so much more than JUST texture and an ever so slight taste difference.<\/p>\n<p>Like a looping slow-motion replay on a contentious referee call, I ate cup after cup for a total of four cups just to be sure I wasn\u2019t missing something. I had little bites and big bites with swishes of water in between to cleanse my palate. Unfortunately, I came to the same conclusion\u2026four times. Cue the sad trombone because we\u2019ve all been played by the Reese\u2019s marketing team. <\/p>\n<p>While the chocolate cookie bits don\u2019t provide much flavor, if you\u2019re a Reese\u2019s diehard like I am, you\u2019ll still get to enjoy the classic peanut butter and chocolate combination.
