I'd really appreciate it if you guys didn't 'just' talk about junk food, by the way. Perhaps you guys could do videos on those "Whole Foods" stores, or entire episodes focusing on fruits and vegetables, including Acai Berries, Kale and other, healthier foods. I'm not saying you should STOP making videos on junkier foods altogether, I'm just saying it might be a cool idea.

Writer of the video here, tell me about it. I didn't think this one was going to be nearly as interesting to research and write up than it actually was. This is just the short version of the story too. Reese's grandson wrote a book on the company's history titled Reese's Peanut Butter Cups: The Untold Story: Inventor, H.B. Reese. Worth a read if you can find it.

What, the guy in the background?
the love between Hersheys and Reeses is heartwarming
Eating a fresh Reese’s cup is the most satisfying thing on earth. Like fresh as in right from the Reese’s factory. What a time to be alive
It is really sweet, (pardon the pun) that Hershey and Reese were so supportive of one another despite being competitors.
I love how this series is supposed to be about food but they're still using video game music in the background

So I was skeptical of this channel at first but you got my favorite candy and my favorite youtuber in the same video. Now I'm sold.
Well now I want some peanut butter cups!
the chunbiyo reference (I think that’s how it’s spelled) was probably the most epic thing I’ve seen in the last thirty seconds.
ET bring Pieces Home
Thank you for pronouncing "Resse's" right. In New Jersey at least, people pronounce it "Ree-seez" and Reese's Pieces "Ree-seez Pee-seez" and it really bothers me

Reeses Pieces are my favorite candy for years now and it's crazy that we almost lost them!
I thought maybe this video would make me want some candy, but instead it made me want to re-watch Love, Chunibyo, & Other Delusions. :)
born in 84, I can't say whether ET was any influence, but I distinctly remember Reese's Pieces as one of my favorite childhood treats, along with the Whatchamacallit

I loved those two also. Once they added caramel to Whatchamacallit, I gave up. I hate caramel. Wish we could still get the originals. If you can ever find Peanut Butter Twix, they are fantastic too, maybe my favorite peanut butter candy.

I saw E.T a million times as a kid but I always called them Smarties, I did even know what Reese's was as a kid.
Fitting how like, it's peanut butter gamer is talking about peanut butter
wait, Reese's has a day on May 18th? well now i know what to do as a birthday tradition
Nothing like an 8 bit remix of the best piece of music in Mario 3d land while talking about Reeses Pieces
Reese's Pieces and Cups are sooo goood but there's just one problem with them: They're not available in my country! (Argentina) In fact, I'm sure they're not available anywhere in Latin America. Idk why because Hershey's is here. If they own Reese's, they should distribute the cups and pieces over here as well. I think it's because Peanut Butter is not really popular over here but the candies themselves are sooo goood. I had the chance to try them out when I travelled to the US and I loved them. I remember my first reaction to eating a pack of Reese's Pieces was *"No wonder ET liked these so much!"* LMAO

The peanut butter guy, talking about the peanut butter candy? Too perfect... WAY too perfect...
This is one of my all-time favorite candies.
Sudden Chunibyo scene gave me a laugh. Was not expecting that lol
I have been popping these videos like candies! Just subscribed, looking forward to the next one. Do one about foods based on Superheroes! Superman peanut butter, etc?
This is amazing, I LOVE Reese's candy, it's my most favourite chocolate candy ever (with Reese's Puffs being a favourite cereal of mine.)
Reese's is my all time favorite candy. And that new Hersey's/Reese's pieces bar is great
Love this video subscribed and looking forward for new videos on this channel since I came from your gaming channel . Keep up the good work. 🤙🏽
Great episode ! Keep it up !
Okay, yup, I'm on board with this channel. Didn't even know Reese's Pieces was outright failing before E.T.!
Didyouknow channels are my favorite of KZread. Thank you
When i was a kid i loved this movie and reeses pieces.
Well that was surprisingly heartwarming
These are awesome, guys!
The reason ET likes sugar is because he's a plant. He's actually a kind of animate root vegetable, like an intelligent potato or beet. In the early part of their life cycle, they grow underground with leaves sticking out the top to sustain them through photosynthesis, but when they mature to their mobile stage they lose their leaves and gain the ability to sustain themselves by consuming sugars from external sources.
Guys. This channel is awesome. Keep it up.
Imagine having 16 KIDS. Mans was real busy

Using PBG for VO for this is perfect. Brilliant.
I had no idea about the holiday and I live 20 minutes from Hershey PA lol. Thanks for the info!
I love Reese’s pieces. I didn’t know ET Had anything to do with it but thank Goodness
That's some really good candy. I'm eating some right now while watching this video.
First heard about Reeses last year!
The town I live in used to be home to the Hershey's factory where Reese cups were made right up until they shut the plant down in 2007. I miss roasting days.
I would say maybe. I saw ET on my fifth birthday and we got Reese's pieces. I still really like them.
A delicious peanut butter video voiced by my favorite peanut butter flavored youtuber
Yay Peanutbuttergamer!
God I love this channel

I actually tell if they're out of ideas or not. But I like it.
Legit my favorite candy
its so fitting that Mario music plays over the reese peanut butter cups video seeing how iconic both are in their own properties
REESE PUFFS! REESE PUFFS! EAT EM UP! EAT EM UP! EAT EM UP!
This background music made me so nostalgic
The music is too much in this video. Cool video tho.

Peanut butter gamer doing a reese's peanut butter candy video
E.T to the rescue
Ooh a Piece of Candy
Who else could to talk about Reeses but the Peanut Butter gamer himself.😄👌
So the peanut butter in PeanutButterGamer is Reeses? Are his atoms called Reese's Pieces?
I was eating Reese’s pieces and then this got recommended to me so now I gotta watch it 🤷♀️
My mom once accused me of being a “closeted Reese’s addict,” and she wasn’t wrong
Obviously the only person I can think of narrating this video is PBG himself. If i ever meet that man in real life I want him to autograph my PB stuff.
I kinda want some Reese's now!! lol
4:50 through 4:55 made me fucking die of laughter
nice going
Yesss SM3DW music, that shits underrated, it's excellent, and PBG doing a DYKG on Reese's is great
I freaked out when Austin said “PB’s”
Reese’s was always my favorite channel
