How much does a Reese's cup weigh?

200 grams

When one adds up the weight listed on the side of a bag of sugar, 1 cup of granulated white sugar should weigh 192 grams. According to the C&H Sugar website, 1 lb = 2-1/4 cups. The conversion is 1 lb = 453.59237 grams. Divide that by 9 to get 50.3991522 grams per 1/4 cup. Multiply that by 4 to make a full cup, and the total is 201.596609 grams per cup. Therefore, the original answer of 200 grams is a more accurate approximation than the weight listed on the sugar packaging.

Reese's Pieces candy contains trace amounts of milk. It's such a small amount that it may just be leftover bits of milk from other stuff that gets left in the manufacturing equipment (as it's difficult to clean it all perfectly). Some vegans don't care about equipment residues and thus would be okay with eating the candy. However, due to the trace amounts, the product is technically NOT vegan.

Despite common misconceptions, chocolate necessarily contain non-vegan products, such as milk, and THERE IS NO CHOCOLATE in Reece's Pieces candy. The full list of ingredients is below.

Sugar, partially defatted peanuts, partially hydrogenated vegetable oil (palm kernel and soybean oil), corn syrup, dextrose; contains less than 2% of: artificial color (Yellow 5 lake, Red 40, Yellow 6 lake, Blue 1 lake), salt, resinous glaze, soy lecithin, modified cornstarch, carnauba wax, vanillin, artificial flavor, milk.

Which is healthier Reese's or Hershey's chocolate?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

well, its all depending on the suger contents, but they are both good for you in some way because the milk has calcium.

In moderation, dark chocolate is a healthier alternative to milk chocolate. It contains less sugar and more antioxidants, which will be better for weight loss and lower blood pressure. It is important to note that dark chocolate shouldn't be eaten with a glass of milk if the health benefits are desired.

Chris Stelzl invented them as a Jr. High School project in 1976. He was a fan of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and M&M's as a child. So he created his two favorites into one. He created a drawing showing the idea with a letter and sent it to both Mars and Hershey's. Although he never received a response from either company, Hershey's came out with the product in1978 and then it was used in the hit movie E.T. the rest is history.

How did Reese's peanut butter cups change through time?

Asked by Wiki User

Well, right off the bat I'd hazard to guess that they used natural ingredients at first, and have "progressed" to chemicals and such over time, both in preparation of the product, and in the growing of the peanuts and such. (Also guessing the making has become much more mechanized.)
