Yes, Yes it is true. Hershey has done the world the greatest favor, they company has given birth to the Reese's BIG CUP with Peanut Butter & Banana Creme! How amazing is that?
Here is my story of how I discovered this work of art.
This summer, my Dad and I drove from southern Ontario, down through Buffalo (where we stopped at The Anchor Bar for a few original Buffalo Wings) then down to NYC. One night in Times Square, Ozzy Osbourne was playing his tunes for the opening of Madden '08 on top of the Hard Rock Cafe and we walked by the Hershey Store. Huge Elvis advertising for Reese's BIG CUP with Peanut Butter & Banana Creme. Delicious. All I have to say. I took a picture as proof so my friends would believe me. I strongly suggest you try.
