A snack for the King

reeses.JPGIt didn’t appeal to me, but the folks up here who tried the new Reese’s Peanut Butter and Banana Cup (King size, of course!) that came in the mail today gave it a hunka-hunka thumbs up. (Including Michael Donahue, who took the picture of the cool car the candy came in.)

This year marks the 30th anniversary of Elvis’ death and I guess in tribute I’ll need to pull out the Elvis cookbooks we have around here and see if anything sounds good. Meanwhile, if you’re a fan of peanut butter and banana (my dad loved PB&B sandwiches, too), grab a new Reese’s–you could win prizes like a trip for four to Memphis (surely you know someone you want to invite) a scarf owned by Elvis; a cancelled check signed by Elvis; and Elvis-themed sunglasses and license plates.

In addition, one lucky grand-prize winner will ride like The King in an overhauled, totally redesigned custom Reese’s Elvis Tribute Car built by car-crafting legend Boyd Coddington. The 1957 Cadillac is inspired by Elvis’ pink Cadillac and includes all the upgrades and features of a 2007 custom hot rod. Featuring a television, satellite radio, MP3 compatibility, GPS and a mini-refrigerator stocked with Reese’s Elvis Cups, the Reese’s Elvis Tribute Car is rock-star ready.

And oh yes, that last graf came straight from the press release…

I’ve heard this was on the horizon—-any idea where we can purchase it in Memphis, and when?

I saw the Elvis Pez set in Wallgreens. It is a set of different era Elvis (early-military-older) Pez candy dispensers. It looks like a must have for the Elvis fan.

The Elvis Reese’s are at Walgreen’s. I saw them at the one at Summer & Perkins, but you’ve got to think they’re at all locations. I believe they’re a dollar.

I actually saw them today at Kroger and purchases a few for a fellow Elvis fan (as well as myself).

I had to try one…guess what? They are GOOD!

(and they were around 60 cents for a pack of 2)

One of my friends said someone at the office had some & they were a lot better than she expected. She said you can really smell & taste the banana flavor.
