When it comes to Reese's, everyone seems to have a unique way of enjoying this classic treat. The debate about whether to eat the bottom or squish the top of a Reese's has become a favorite topic among fans. Choosing to eat the bottom first lets you savor the rich peanut butter filling instantly, giving an intense burst of flavor with every bite. On the other hand, squishing the top layer adds a tactile experience, especially for those who enjoy the satisfying feel of the chocolate shell before indulging. As someone who’s tried both ways, I find that squishing the top first can be oddly calming—similar to the soft textures that paper squishies offer, which also find popularity among collectors. It’s a fun prelude to eating, merging sensory play with taste. Meanwhile, eating the bottom provides a straightforward, instantly gratifying way to enjoy the classic combination of chocolate and peanut butter. Whether you side more with #reeses or love the tactile fun of #papersquishy or #papersquishies, this simple choice highlights how even small details can change our enjoyment of food. Next time you pick up a Reese’s, give both ways a try and see which experience resonates with you the most—it might even spark a new favorite ritual.
