My votes:
Peanut M&Ms over Rolo. Rolos are good, but I'm not sure how they made it this far in the tournament. Peanut M&Ms are a legit contender for the crown based on their snackety goodness. 100 Grand Bar over Snickers. I maybe voting against Snickers out of habit now because I think it's overrated. It's definitely good and I have nothing against it. But I'd pick a 100 Grand Bar over it on most days, and this is one of those days. Starburst over Reese's Pieces. This is a tough one. They're so different that one could make different choices on different days. Reese's Pieces are delightfully mellow while Starburst yells at your taste buds. But man, those pink Starburst are sooooo good. Gotta go Starburst. Reese's Peanut Butter Cups over Dove Candy Bar. Dove Candy Bars are good, but I don't know how they've made it this deep into the tournament. They're just chocolate. RPBC by a mile here.

The peanut butter cup made the Reese family very wealthy.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reese%...ut_Butter_Cups The H.B. Reese Candy Company The Harry Burnett Reese Candy Co. was established in the basement of Reese's house in Hershey, Pennsylvania.[1] Reese had originally worked at a Hershey dairy farm, and from the start he used Hershey Chocolate in his confections. Reese's Peanut Butter Cups were his most popular candy, and Reese eventually discontinued his other lines. Reese died on May 16, 1956, passing the company to his six sons, Robert, John, Ed, Ralph, Harry, and Charles Richard Reese. On July 2, 1963, the Reese brothers merged the H.B. Reese Candy Company with the Hershey Chocolate Corporation in a tax-free stock-for-stock merger with the six Reese brothers receiving 666,316 Hershey common shares, valued in 1963 at $23.5 million. In 2013, after 50 years of stock splits, these original shares now represent sixteen million Hershey common shares valued in excess of $1 billion, paying $31 million in annual cash dividends.[2] The H.B. Reese Candy Company is maintained as a subsidiary of Hershey because the Reese plant workforce is not unionized, unlike the main Hershey plant. As of September 20, 2012, Reese's is the best-selling candy brand in the United States with sales of $2.603 billion, and is the fourth-best-selling candy brand globally with sales of $2.679 billion—only $76 million (2.8%) of its sales is from outside the United States market. Additionally, the H.B. Reese Candy Company manufactures the Kit Kat in the United States, which had 2012 U.S. sales of $948 million.[3]

Heath.
Rolo. Nothing special about either. Neither one is winning this thing. 100 Grand. Way better than Snickers. Reese's Pieces. Same rationale as last round. I only like half a pack of Starburst, but I like 100 percent of Reese's Pieces. Reese's here, too. I hate that dark chocolate won't be represented. |

It's okay, Dove bar, you won't get skunked.
Dark chocolate is the best chocolate. Dove makes probably the best commercial chocolate around. As such, 'just chocolate' is kinda like saying 'just boobs'. Man has been felled by many a spectacular rack and with good reason. The understated simplicity of a truly outstanding bar of chocolate should not go unrecognized. Once more unto the breach, Dove bar. We'll close up the wall with our dead...

The potential extermination of dark chocolate now has me sad. How could such a thing happen? Of course, the best representatives of dark chocolate were Mounds and Riesens.

What's the deal with Rolo? Every round I think it'll get knocked out.

I'm hoping the 100 Grand can pull the upset.

Rolo over Peanut M&Ms is the greatest travesty I've ever heard of.
