Personally, I believe the egg being that it’s almost round, gives the candy consistency and you know the old saying, “consistency is key!”. I totally think that applies here. It’s almost round, doesn’t contain ridges and fits perfectly in your hand. Oh and the best part? The egg contains more peanut butter than it’s candy cousins. 9 grams more than the cup to be exact. How do I know this? Well, this guy deconstructed all of the different Reese’s candies to find out how they ranked against each other using an X-Acto knife. Some may call him crazy, others call him passionate about his peanut butter and chocolate. Nonetheless, his study is worth checking out.View this post on InstagramChocolate and peanut butter > Whatever is inside your Easter egg. #NotSorry
I’ve always thought that the ridges on the original Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup gave it too much crunch and it didn’t pair well with the creamy middle. It always made me disappointed when I’d eat one. I like the soft, consistent bite I get when biting into a Reese’s Egg. I just don’t think it can get any better than that. And many people agree with me… Twitter users are particularly passionate about those Reese’s Eggs and I don’t blame them.
So, let’s settle this once for all, are Reese’s Eggs or Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups Better?This is my favorite time of year because the @reeses eggs are better than the cups?

The egg is the best of all time!!!!
I’m apparently part of a minority here…I prefer the cups over the eggs. I love the ridge!
Eggs for days…..I absolutely agree the Reese’s Egg is better. Who wouldn’t choose the Smooth, Rich and Creamy deliciousness of what is the Reese’s Egg? The Reese’s cup is dry, hard covered in waxy chocolate. No comparison. Give me the egg everyday, NOT SORRY!!!!
Y’all the reason the seasonal Reese’s are better is because they are made with gluten. It adds more of a creamy, whipped, peanut butter consistency than the OG Reese’s cups. When you are on a gluten free diet you can have regular Reese’s but not seasonal ones.
Try the king size Reese’s cup with Reese’s pieces in it… This is a close second imo
Why hasn’t Reese’s come out with a clover for St Patrick’s Day ?
I completely agree! The more peanut butter the better it is.
Right?!
You nailed it! When I was little I always thought the Reese’s Eggs were better but thought it was all my head. I wond sometimes eat an entire bag of the Reese’s Eggs just because you couldn’t get them any other time than Easter! I love this article! #TRUTH
Last year or the year before the eggs were literally just blobs, not eggs. It was a total fail. I think I remember people being pretty mad about it.
The EGG all day! They are soooo much better! The cups don’t even come close!
