I'm going to have to try these TJs dark chocolate PB cups. Really wish there was more than one TJs in the metro.

I love Reese's PB cups and LOVE Reese's Easter eggs.
But m&m peanut butter is total crack and could kill me.

Anything that doesn't involve peeling a wrapper off my candy. Hershey's Kisses are the death of me!!
I think the Sams Choice (walmart brand) PB cups in a bag don't have wrappers. Pretty solid but not as good as Recces but no wrappers is a good trade. They also make Caramel cups too that I like.

Can we all at least agree on the worst example of a chocolate/peanut butter confection?

Somehow too grainy and too smooth. Waxy. Bland. Just unappealing in general. I'm talking about the Portly Ballerina, herself:

As a candy maker, if, at any time the term "whole grain" enters the pitch as part of a new product, that's your clear indicator that something is very wrong with the idea.

Not exactly sure.
I guess i'm missing out on the eggs. I've always been a peanut butter cup purist.
I’m with you brother, gotta just buy a hersheys bar, snap it in half, lather that up with some PB and push the two halves together. Old school.

That does sound a little tempting. Also would depend on the peanut butter. I’m a peanut butter snob when I have it.

We're coming into the season where this is more important: OG cups are infinitely better on a s'more.

There is no way a rational, sane person could find original Oreos better than double stuff Oreos. Double stuff should be the default Oreo.
But if double stuffed is the default, then it's not double. The regular would just be "half-stuffed".

I think it's pretty well documented that the Reese's pumpkins have the perfect ratio of PB to chocolate.

You describe it well. They're like eating Reese's scented candles mixed with sand.,
