The Great Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Battle

Sometimes the price of journalism is steep and hefty, but if you want to deliver the information and stories that people care about you can't expect it all to be glamorous. Now that Halloween has passed us by, I experienced something that many of us probably already have, but never really put much thought into it. Well, if there is anything I do well, it is putting way to much thought into something that probably doesn't deserve it. Daily things pass through my mind of such inquisitive nature like, "How come we can't taste our own tongue?" and, "What would life be like if horses were carnivorous?"

Too many times have folks just scoffed at those ideas, but this time I stumbled upon something that people cared about. This time I found something that really resonates within all of us Americans, and actually, even with people abroad. If there is anything that we find importance in and love, it is food, snacks, treats, and yes, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. Now, like I said, Halloween has passed and thus I had not one, but two different kinds of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups within reach, and I had a choice to make. Would I eat the large or the minis first? I instinctively grabbed for the minis. Why? What was it that might cause me to do such a thing? Well, science may have prevailed... sort of, and I just might have an answer.
