The story of Reese's

Did you know how the first reesecup were made? Maybe not. Two people were sitting together. One was eating peanut butter and other chocolate. Suddenly their peanut butter and chocolate gets mixed with each other!
"Hey!", shoutes the first person. "You mixed chocolate in my peanut butter!"
"You," said the second person. "mixed peanut butter in my chocolate!"
But, when they tasted the mixture they found that it was DELICIOUS!

Note: This is just a story of mine, I do not know if its real.

However, the first Reese's Cup was made by Harry Burnett Reese.

 Harry Burnett Reese was born in 1879 on a farm in Frosty Hill, Pensylvania. He was a former dairy employee working for Milton S. Hershey, founder of the Hershey’s Food Corporation. Inspired by Hershey’s success, H. B. Reese left the dairy started his own confectionery business. Although H. B. Reese’s decision led to the introduction of a now world-famous product that still represents something unique in the candy industry, he experienced much adversity before building a company that thrived on a single product – his peanut butter blend.
