Reese's Pumpkin

This is my fifth review. It is on the seasonal (Halloween) Reese's Pumpkin. I never knew about it until I saw a sale of it at Walgreen's and my mother bought me one, very generously. By the way, even though I don't celebrate Halloween, I personally love Halloween season because that's when all the candy sales and limited edition stuff hit. Also, I have officially decided to change the sixth sense (which happens to be Yiddish if you are unfamiliar with this blog) to the sense of humor, which is much better in my opinion. We will start with the usual interview.
1. Interview:
The Kandy King: So, Reese's Pumpkin, don't know anything about you. Seen the Great Pumpkin lately?
Reese's Pumpkin: Hardy har. Basically, I'm released every year during September and October for Halloween. I'm a pumpkin shaped Reese's cup (well technically not a cup anymore) inside an eerie purple and orange wrapper. But get me while you can because I'm not staying for long!
KK: Great. On to
The Six Senses:
A. Seeing: Chocolate covered peanut butter, two thick, fat circles with a rectangular stem at the top to form the shape of a pumpkin
B. Feeling: Smooth on all edges.
C. Smelling: Milk chocolatey, and peanut (not peanut butter)
D. Hearing: See Interview.
E: Tasting: Regular delicious creamy chocolaty peanuty Reese's Cup taste with the exception of a lot more peanut butter and a lot less chocolate. Delicious, nevertheless. Peanut Butter as usual is sugary and crumbly and not-so-sticky
F. Humor: So a pumpkin walks into a bar...no. wait. rolls into a bar...............................maybe this humor thing isn't going to well. Ah well, maybe I should try again next time.
3. Overall Rating: 10 out of 10! Ding! Ding! Ding!
