I bought a 2 lb bag of Reeses and when I got home I discovered there are pretzels in my Reeses.

I am so mad! I bought a huge bag of Reeses to dine on and when I bit into one, I discovered there is pretzel and other detritus mixed into my Reeses. The bag was so deceiving! I have a good mind of writing a letter.

How was I supposed to know that the bag wasn't full of creamy Reeses? I don't even know what "Fast Break" or "Take That" is! I feel like they should differentiate the bag better so it doesn't upset loyal customers such as myself. I suggest they use Mr. Yuck to warn us of the disgusting presence of pretzels.

No it doesn't! It shows orange-colored Reeses dancing, like at a party. I am now stuck with a bag of Reeses tainted with pretzels-- and whatever the other thing is.

The Milky Way things are quite good, though. I am going to donate the pretzels to charity and keep the others. But next time I buy a "party bag" I will make sure I know what I am getting into before I get home.

I also noticed in my so-called "party bag" that they have shrank the old "snack size" Reeses. Now they are so tiny, they might as well be Reeses Miniatures! What a fucking ripoff. I would boycott Reeses for ALL these reasons, but I really can't live without them. I think they know that.

No, r38. The more Reeses I eat, the thinner I get! I think that my body gets its nutrients from Reeses and then tells my brain: "I'm full!" It's my main food group. That is why I really resent the intrusion of pretzels.

Oh honey, we all know you're going to inhale that 2lb bag within 30 minutes. You'll never know what's going into your mouth, per usual. Your biggest concern should be not to choke on the paper wrapping.

by Anonymousreply 45September 13, 2021 2:56 AM

complaining here achieves nothing. write them and tell them why you felt deceived and they'll send you either coupons for a free bag or coupons for a large amount off another bag. If I feel I am in the right I always write and receive something back. One time I bout a single pizza and they had ground up a plastic bag instead of the cheese. I sent the entire slice back to them in a plastic bag in an envelope. Not only did I get coupons for free products but I also received a letter from the owner of the company.

I also wrote to bounty about always getting stuck with the large sheets instead of the smaller ones. They told how to tell the difference which I had never noticed, (there was a blue band on one and an orange band around the top on the other. They sent me good coupons too. I wrote to PF Changs telling them that the writing was so small on the package that I didn't even see the heat index on the package and I had to throw the entire package out because it was too hot for me. They sent me a coupon for a free package. These companies want you to be happy because they want you to keep buying their products. If you don't tell them what is wrong they can't fix it.

In one scene they show him sitting at a table eating from a bag of Chex mix and he's poured out a big bag of Reese's Mini Peanut Butter Cups.

Is that kid you OP? Hi Isaac!

This is the OP and I am back with an update. I decided to give away the pretzel things and went to two different neighbors. They REFUSED to take the Reeses, rightly pointing out that they are tainted with pretzels. I then went to the mail lady and her joy at the prospect of free candy turned to disgust when she heard about the pretzels. Finally I handed them off to some kids. All of the people who refused the pretzel-Reeses were black, which just goes to show that black people have good taste in candy. No doubt this pretzel business was dreamt up by a fat white guy in Ohio or some other place bereft of good food.

I have an update. Tonight, I went to CVS, in the mood for candy and bandaids, but to my chagrin the only Reeses in stock were the nasty pretzel kind and peanut brittle Reeses, which I am certain has the same chunky texture I hated in the pretzel Reeses. I actually left CVS empty handed! That's the bad news. But the good news is that I had awareness of these impostors and avoided buying them!

Used to be when you went to the store there was one variety of Wheat Things, one kind of Triscuits. Now you have to read the packages carefully so you don't end up with the wrong thing. I almost clobbered bf when he accidentally bought unsalted nuts.
