‘Just a chocolate blob!’: Florida woman files $5 million lawsuit against Hershey over faceless Reese’s Peanut Butter Pumpkins

A Florida woman is waging a $5 million class action lawsuit against The Hershey Company for “tricking” customers with promises of seasonally-carved peanut butter cups — a problem she said is evident because YouTube reviewers posted videos of their disappointment.

Plaintiff Cynthia Kelly filed a lawsuit Thursday on behalf of consumers against the chocolate giant over a change in packaging for some of its themed candy. Kelly said that the packaging, which showed the candy with facial and other features carved into the chocolate, was fraudulent and misleading.

Reese’s Peanut Butter Pumpkins, for example, said Kelly, have no carvings for the eyes and mouth, despite packing indicating as much. Likewise, Kelly said the Reese’s White Ghosts are missing facial features.
