Reese's Pieces

Reese's Pieces are a peanut butter candy manufactured by the Hershey Company solely for the North American market; they are in shape and covered in candy shells that are colored yellow, orange, or brown. They can be purchased in plastic packets, cardboard boxes, or cup-shaped travel containers. The candy was introduced in 1977

, and introduced to Canada in 1980. The then relatively new product became very popular with the 1982 release of  in which the candy is featured.

Reese's Pieces are a line; this new product was designed to capitalize on the success of the chocolate-covered peanut butter cups, though unlike the cups, they have no chocolate.
