Reese's Peanut Butter cups
If you love the combination of chocolate and peanut butter, then it's likely that Reese's Peanut Butter Cups was one of your favorite Halloween candies growing up. An American candy introduced in 1928, they were named after their creator H.B. Reese, who was a former dairy farmer and shipping foreman for Milton S. Hershey (founder of the Hershey Chocolate Company). The candy was produced and sold by the H.B. Reese Candy Company, which is now a subsidiary of The Hershey Company. Now, you can find countless variations of Reese's products (Reese's Pieces, Miniatures, Marshmallow, etc.), but the peanut butter cups remain one of the best-selling candies in the world.
