About this episode
The episode discusses chocolate, Easter candy, and snacks while exploring the history of a famous space drink.
Hello, ya little cherry cordials! On episode 179 of HINKY, Hershey’s is bringing the chocolate back to Reese’s and that sparks a long debate about the Fast Break bar and whether it was promoted as a protein bar in the early aughts (the best decade description, btw). Carrie went to Local Mash and Sara went to Boone Tavern/Distillery District, and Sara tells us the most popular Easter candy in each state. We try some of the best snacks we’ve had in a while for Everybody Tries, and Carrie tells us the history of a famous space drink in honor of Artemis II for the HINKY History Lesson.
