There are very few things that don’t taste good with peanut butter. Whether it’s cookies, fudge, ice cream, sauce, or even chicken soup, peanut butter seems to complement everything. But have you ever tried it on a burger? We say, why not? Peanut butter is a versatile ingredient that can be found in many ready-to-eat snacks. Perhaps the most famous of these snacks is Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, known for their irresistible blend of chocolate and peanut butter.
The iconic combination of chocolate and peanut butter has captured the hearts of many, with Reese’s products ranging from candies to snacks. Now, Reese’s is introducing a new treat that forgoes chocolate in favor of a different twist, and we’re intrigued.
Hershey’s has recently released Reese’s Filled Pretzels, which are bite-sized pretzel nuggets filled with peanut butter. While the concept may not be entirely new, these pretzels offer a unique twist on a familiar favorite. Similar products, such as Costco’s Kirkland Signature Peanut Butter Pretzel Nuggets and Trader Joe’s version, have garnered praise from consumers in the past.
The absence of chocolate in Reese’s pretzels may be a deliberate choice. These peanut butter-filled pretzels offer a convenient and less messy snacking option, especially for on-the-go consumption.
Despite the lack of chocolate, some fans have expressed a desire for a chocolate-coated version of Reese’s Filled Pretzels. Following a soft launch in November 2024, these treats are now more widely available at major retailers nationwide in various sizes, including five-ounce bags, nine-ounce bags, and an 18-ounce jar.
Whether you’re looking for a portable snack, a personal treat, or something to share, Reese’s Filled Pretzels have something for everyone to enjoy.
