It’s been so long since I had a Pearson caramel nip, so I can’t say if these are exactly the same. It doesn’t seem like it though. As soon as the candy hits the tongue, there is an off flavor…like chemicals. It doesn’t last or the mouth gets used to it. After that it is ok and is close enough to my memory of nips.
Then, while the price isn’t horrible, when Pearson nips we’re available in the store, there were often sales and BOGOs. Having to buy Brach’s on line (not available in any stores near me), the possibility of sales is zero.
While I’m glad to still be able to get any nips, I’m just not very thrilled with these things.
Basic tootsie pop, but with rich caramel flavor. What’s not to love?! They are limited in production, so I buy by the pound to prevent running out. Great for when I’m driving, which has been the hardest time to adjust as a ‘new’ non-smoker.
