I preferred the Baby Ruth bar

Ah, the Reggie bar. I remember it fondly. In a funny coincidence, I just enjoyed the awesome acting skills of Reggie Jackson this weekend while watching The Naked Gun. Your article was impeccably timed.

Whenever I see him in an Angels uniform, that is the only thing I can think of.

I totally bought into the Reggie Bar hype when I saw the ads. Turned out I liked the idea more than the candy itself. I had no idea there were subsequent iterations!

I remember wearing a plastic Yankees helmet for a while because I thought the mashed-up NY logo was cool, like some kind of Japanese character. It annoyed my grandfather, who liked the rival Rangers. Always wanted to try the Reggie bar, thought they looked pretty good but I don't think I ever saw one.

It might have lasted longer if they had called it the "Mr. October" bar- at least I would have been more interested in it if that was the case.
