Title: Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups Have Been Deceiving Customers, According to New Lawsuit
Post by: Gefn on January 23, 2024, 12:50:04 am

Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups are truly a favorite candy nationwide. In fact, Instacart revealed that it was the most popular candy sold during the Halloween season in 2022. It was specifically the most popular in 11 states.

And what’s even more fun than your standard Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups are its seasonally available shapes, such as the Easter egg shape available in spring, the Christmas tree in winter, and the Halloween pumpkin in the fall. One person, though, has taken issue with the Halloween-themed pumpkin peanut butter cups and is suing Reese’s parent company Hershey for misleading packaging.

Why Is Hershey’s Being Sued?

A Florida-based woman, Cynthia Kelly, is suing Hershey for alleged misleading packaging on the seasonally available Reese’s Peanut Butter Pumpkins sold in October 2023. The wrapper on the candies features chocolate pumpkins with a nose and mouth, while the product inside the wrapper does not.

ROFL this is dumber than the McD’s coffee suit.

I know what she means.  It’s a cute cartoon character on the package - not chocolate.  So it is not a direct representation of the chocolate piece.  It’s just a hook to get us interested in the Halloween aspect.

I, too, was disappointed that the Reese's Halloween Peanut Butter Cup pumkins lacked eyes, as pictured on the package, but I ate them anyway.

Preserving the evidence may be impossible if there is a glass of milk nearby.
