Reese's Peanut Butter Cups are peanut butter-filled chocolate cups and are the number one selling candy bar in the United States. They were created ca. 1928 by H. B. Reese, a former dairy farmer and shipping foreman for Milton S. Hershey. The H. B. Reese Candy Co., established in the basement of Reese's house in Hershey, Pennsylvania, went on to merge with The Hershey Company in 1963 due to the popularity of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.

Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, (now produced by THe Hershey Company, Reese's division), are the most popular and most widely recognized brand of peanut butter cups in the world. In the United States, they come in one-, two-, three-, four-, and six-packs in distinctive orange packaging.

They are well-known for their ad campaign stating, "There's no wrong way to eat a Reese's," accompanied by some creative way of consuming it. In the 1970s television commercials, the usual scenario involves one person eating chocolate colliding with another person eating out of a peanut butter jar with the famous lines:

You got chocolate in my peanut butter!

You got peanut butter on my chocolate!

The slogan for this advertising campaign was: "Two great tastes that taste great together."
