Most people assume that the end of October is peak candy season. These people have clearly never known the joys of waking up on December 25th with a stocking overflowing with chocolate goodies, safe in the knowledge that - for this day at least - anything goes as far as diet is concerned. Only over Christmas could you get away with chocolate for breakfast followed by a 4,000 calorie turkey-fest. Truly, it is the most wonderful time of the year.  [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/CandyHunting/status/1188849356172152833]] As if to acknowledge the debt that the confectionery industry owes to baby Jesus and his birthday, peanut butter specialist Reese’s has decided that 2019 is in dire need of a delicious lift. To pay homage to our lord and saviour/slavishly satisfy the insatiable god of corporate capitalism, the company has unveiled a four-pack of festive chocolate “Holiday Lights”, just in time for the inevitable end of year goodie spree. Deck the halls and set those sleigh bells a-jingling. Christmas 2019 just got interesting.  Love Reese's?
