This is literally the BEST chocolate treat you could possibly buy (packaged). It tastes just as good, if not better than Reeses (note: I have been obsessed with Reeses since I was roughly 4 or 5 years old). Only 190 calories, opposed to 260 with Reeses, and it doesn't leave you feeling bloated and thirsty, since they have NO sodium. A less guilty way to indulge in chocolate and peanut butter.

Newman's milk chocolate and peanut butter cups are the best of any and all that I've tried over many years. Just the right amount of salt to bring out the flavors. And they melt in your mouth without the heavy fatty taste of some brands, or the overly sweet taste of others. This is it for me.

These peanut butter cups are absolutely delicious. After these, Reese's just don't have any appeal. They are mostly organic and make for a delightful treat. But be careful, they are very addictive and quite fattening!

I never was one of those women that swooned over Paul Newman in his movie days, but I have come to trust his gourmet food products, esp his candy. I have tried several of his organic candy products and this is one of the best. It's not as sweet as Reese's Cups, and a little drier, but I love the chocolate to PNB ratio. It's more of a piece of quality chocolate with a little PNB stuff, rather than the Reeses version of lots of PNB with a light coat of cheap chocolate. The chocolate is smooth and delicious, not too dark or sweet, just right.

They are packaged well, 3 smaller cups fitted into a molded plastic tray in a heavy foil lined wrapper. They were packaged so well, in fact, that I recently found 3 pkgs I had bought on clearance (so already a bit aged) and opened them 8 months later and they were still good. So delicious, actually, that I decided to write this review.

If you are expecting an organic version of Reeses's PNB Cups, you will be disappointed, but Newman's definitely tops the charts where 'health-food' candy is concerned (some of which can be kinda nasty), this is the best "healthy" candy I have found so far. Wouldn't mind continuing an official search, though! Really want to try his sweet dark chocolate with orange oil!

FYI-I recently read that chocolate is one of those food items that organic is important due to how chocolate is processed. So..chocoholics, go organic!
