Reese's Fast Break (or, in Canada, Hershey Sidekick) is a chocolate bar produced by the Hershey Company. Like Reese's Peanut Butter Cups (another Hershey product), Reese's Fast Break has a milk chocolate coating over a peanut butter filling. However, the Fast Break also has a layer of nougat beneath the peanut butter.[1] Hershey also reformulated the chocolate bar to enhance the peanut butter flavor.
Hershey discontinued sales of the Hershey Sidekick in Canada.
Packaging, Advertising & Sponsorship[]
In 2001[2] when Hershey introduced the product to market the retail packaging had a blue and orange color scheme; Hershey later reversed the colors.[3] That same year, Reese’s Fast Break sponsored the No. 29 Chevrolet Monte Carlo NASCAR race car of Richard Childress Racing driven by Kevin Harvick.[4] The Reese’s Fast Break television commercial included footage of Harvick driving the No. 29 racing car.[5]
