Reese's Peanut Butter Cups

"You've got your hair in my peanut butter!"

"Mike's" in Snack Side Down

Reese's Peanut Butter Cups are a candy product created in 1928 and currently owned by The Hersey Company. One of their best known advertisements involves two people possessing chocolate and peanut butter, colliding and remarking "You got your peanut butter in my chocolate!" and "You got your chocolate in my peanut butter!"
