Candy Bars unwrapped!

It's become a new trend to have mini versions of candy bars unwrapped in a bag.  Seriously, whoever thought of this deserves a raise!  Such a great idea!  Depending on the candy bar brand they are marketed as bites, mini, or pieces.  The bites and mini's are pretty much miniature versions of the candy bar where the pieces are hard candy coated candies made in with the inspiration of a specific candy bar.  What do I think?
Ok for this review I purchased a few different kinds- here's my conclusions:

Snickers Bites:
Each one is slightly smaller than the size of the mini individual wrapped ones, which makes them perfect for a quick easy snack on the go.  And the peanuts help with hunger- or so that's what the commercials want us to believe :)

Rolo mini's:
I'm not sure life can get much better than rolo mini's!!!  The coolest thing about these is when a recipe calls for rolo's you don't have to spend hours unwrapping them!  Crack Brownies are now even easier to make!  Aside from cooking, I love keeping one of the small bags of these in my purse.  I think I may have an addiction.

Milkyway Bites:
Like the Snicker's bites these are a little smaller than the individually wrapped mini's.  They are still just as awesome as you would expect milky way to be!  If you have a peanut allergy, or just don't care for them, try these!  I'm a milky way fan so my love of these is probably bias.  But I think if they keep making these and rolo mini's losing weight is going to be hard!


These are the varieties of the pieces candies.  Of these the Reese's pieces is nothing new.  But I look forward to trying the rest.  (however these didn't seem to appeal to me as much so I haven't got them yet)

The newest addition to the Pieces family is the Heath pieces.  Although I like toffee, I have to say I found these a little too sweet. (and that's saying something!)  So they're not so much my favorite.  I'm thinking they may be good in something like brownies, or rice krispies or something.  Maybe in cookies?  Anyhow, these will probably never be in my shopping cart again.
