Take What?!

Pretzels. Caramel. Peanuts. Peanut Butter. Chocolate Coating.
I just introduced to my favorite candy bar. This is an extremely big deal. Salty and sweet, the most adored flavor combination in the world, was mastered and packaged in a little red and gold package known as the Take 5.

You might wonder why I’m elated and enraged at the same time? The Hershey Company released this bite of ecstasy in December 2004 and I’ve never sunk my teeth into it until tonight. I’m mad at everyone I know who’s partaken and didn’t share their dirty little secret. Shame on you.

It could have been a typical Monday night. Instead, it became the perfect start to my week. My next mission? Let’s see if I can recreate it in my kitchen. More to come.

  1. Pretzel's? I don't know.... taste test required. I'm just glad I'm not one of those people who didn't tell you about this 'cause the last thing I want is for you to need to shame me!

  4. Like you Amy, I've not experienced such ecstasy. However, I know I don't need a taste test, as the description does it for me. I'm in LOVE!
    Can't wait to try your homemade version.

  5. Well, finally, I tried this little delicacy. I must say - pretty darn good - except for the stomach ache. You see, nobody explained to me that "Take 5" didn't mean "Eat 5 of these".....
