Reese’s Vs Jif

Leave a comment

Easter is just around the corner. Which means stores are rolling out all their egg shaped candy, and my favorite kind of candy has arrived! I’m a huge Reese’s egg fan, but when I heard Jif released their own, I had to compare them. Here is my breakdown between the two.

First I went with the classic Reese’s. It was just as I remembered. A perfect mixture of chocolate and peanut butter, very well balanced just as it should be. I give it a 10/10. 

Jif: I love Jif peanut butter. It’s my go-to on sandwiches, but I thought their new peanut butter eggs (found at Walmart!) were a bit of a disappointment. While the inside was super creamy, which is a classic with Jif, the ratio between the chocolate and peanut butter was off. I thought it was too much chocolate and very little peanut butter. I give it a 5/10.

My final verdict: If you are looking for the perfect well-balanced treat, Reese’s is the winner! However, if you prefer a smoother, softer filling and don’t mind a higher chocolate to peanut butter ratio, give Jif a try. 

Have you compared the two yet? If so, let me know in the comments what your thoughts were.
