Category - 5 peices of rectangled bite sized Candy bar like goodness
Rating: I must have more.
Notes: This is a nostalga candy for me Carmel/nuget like substance with peanuts wrapped in a dark chocolate. There is plenty of sugar but you don't get an overly sweet feeling from it. My mom used to bring them home when I was a little kid. The candy is made in Pennsylvania and I Goldbergs was bought by a rival Just Born Inc who makes marshmellow peeps, Mike & Ikes and Hot Tomalies. I don't see this candy at all much outside of the area but now it's a new company, who knows. The competive version of this product wasn't as hard and was milk chocolate. I'm glad they went w/ the old receipie.

TAKE5
Company: Hershey's
Presentation?: Red wraper w/ title in gold and white. Nice and professional but a little subdued. It put me in mind of the 100,000 grand bar wrapper.
Prize/Give Away/ Sweepstakes? n/a
Content? Pretzels, Carmel, peanuts, peanut butter, milk chocolate
Texture? Great flavor, pretzel is fresh and crunchy w/out being too hard. It's not tough to chew and the flavors are disernable.
Flavor? MMMMMM
Price? .99 US
Worth it? Yes!
Category - Candy bar
Rating: I must have more.
Notes: This is a keeper. It comes in two smaller bars. I finally found a new candy bar worth buying. It's light and easy to eat (unlike a full-size snickers) and it contains the right amount of ingredients. I'd buy this over most other candy bars.
