We also have some great show notes up on the Candyology 101 website, if you want to track down anything we were talking about. Enjoy!
Modjeskas reference! I love them - I’m guessing Maria or Lauren’s little candy shop is making something similar to them, but Modjeskas are a Louisville tradition (Muth’s Candy in Louisville make great ones that you can order online).
I just subscribed to your podcast and listened to this one first. Very enjoyable! I heard about you from Slate’s The Gist with Mike Pesca.
Regarding peanut butter cups, I was all about the Reese’s until See’s developed their own. Once I ate a See’s p.b. cup, I never looked back: the peanut filling is grainy and sweet and salty and the chocolate, of course, is so much better. Also, I feel they got the ratio of chocolate to peanut butter just right.
One other peanut topic you didn’t mention was Reese’s Pieces v. Peanut Butter M&Ms;: sorry ET, Peanut Butter M&M’s are vastly superior, with a more powerful peanut butter flavor, a larger morsel, and a crisper candy coating.
