Hershey’s Kisses Pumpkin Spice

Wow these are awful. They are greasy and mushy with and odd color and weird texture.

I never liked Hershey's Kisses because it is too much chocolate for my taste. That said Hershey’s Kisses Pumpkin Spice flavored candies have no real pumpkin and lots of white chocolate.

At $6.00 per bag there is 60 opportunities to spit out and wonder why anyone would make this combination. Nothing nutritional about these so no big loss if you never try one.

Recommendation: Avoid for goodness sake. 

Russell Stover Dark Chocolate & Marshmallow Pumpkin

Like most guys I prefer dark chocolate and even more so I love marshmallows. This one combines the two in a somewhat disappointing way.

Russell Stover Dark Chocolate & Marshmallow Pumpkin is pumpkin shaped and has no pumpkin flavoring. The thin crisp shell is good and marshmallow is a bit more gelatin tasting than I enjoy.

At $0.49 each they are fine and do not bother thinking anything about these are healthy. Russell Stover is an underrated brand since they are often the cheapest but i enjoy the thin chocolate often used. There nut filled bars are among the best out there.

Recommendation: Try it for yourself.

Snickers Pumpkin

Snickers Pumpkin is only pumpkin shaped and contains no pumpkin flavoring. I know it was kind of disappointing but if you like Snickers this extra fat piece will satisfy.

While the package does not say it has pumpkin flavored I did assume it was since virtually everything else has been pumpkin filled these days. Opening the package you see it is a jack-o-lantern shape, not truly a pumpkin. Tasting it you final realize there is no other flavor than the usual nuts and caramel.

Mine was a bit melty so I left it overnight in the fridge and it got nice an rock solid, a balance between melty and rock hard is better. The flavor is okay it has more chocolate than a normal Snickers bar which I did not enjoy. Since I am not a big chocolate fan I would probably not buy this again unless they actually add pumpkin spices.

At less than $0.75 in most places it is a better bargain than most chocolate bars. It is mostly fat and some sugar.

Recommendation: Try it for yourself.
