Yes, the Peanut Butter Cup was the holy grail of halloween candy as far as I was concerned. I still steal them from my own kids' halloween bags.
Slightly off-topic, when my dad was returning from Europe on a troop ship in WWII, he managed to get his hands on a case of Reese's and ate the whole damn thing. Sixty-plus years later, he still can't stand the sight of a peanut butter cup.
