The Justin's Milk Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups that I could find on sale with my coupon was the mini type but in that case 3 of these equal 2 of the Reese's when you look at the nutritional information and compare by weight. The big difference is that Jusin's is organic ingredients versus mainstream method of farming for the ingredients.
Let's compare the two cups first and foremost in terms of size, color, and what's inside them. The Justin's are darker in color and even given that these are smaller they are still taller than a Reese's so much of their weight is the peanut butter filling.
Let's compare the two on flavor and texture. The Reese's is a sweet, creamy lightly roasted peanut butter with a sweet light chocolate as an aftertaste. The Justin's chocolate is more intense but so is the roasted peanut butter, little sweetness until at the end of the chewing. Between the two, I have to go with Justin's!
Justin's vs Reese's Milk Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups... which is your favorite?

I find that the seasonal items seem to taste better to me, too, but I'm not sure why. We've covered in the past I believe.
In any case, your review prompted me to try Justin's. I picked up the dark chocolate and milk chocolate last night. Tried one of the dark chocolate cups. I definitely like the stronger cocoa flavor (and less sugar). Looking forward to your review.
I'm not sure organic = healthy myself. I have so many allergies to the natural world that a little unnaturalness can be good for me personally.
Thank you for commenting, Robert!
