AMERICAN confectionery maker Hershey manufactures products classified as a “sometimes” food.

But a super-fan of the company’s Reeses Peanut Butter Cups is likely to be chowing down on the sweet things for quite a long time now, after he was presented with a swimming pool full of the chocolatey delights.

Ohio-based Jon Ernst became famous online in 2015 after he received an employee gift card from the store where he worked and spent the whole thing on Reeses’ Peanut Butter Cups.

The company has now rewarded his viral fame with the poolful of product as part of an “Outrageous Acts” campaign to launch a new candy bar.

SMOKING cigarettes is a well established contributor to increased mortality, and “vaping” has been touted as a slightly safer way to get a nicotine hit.

However that definitely wasn’t the case for a Florida man who tragically died recently after an electronic cigarette exploded, killing him instantly as pieces of the device lodged in his skull.

The 38-year-old’s body was discovered by emergency workers as they put out a fire caused by the explosion.

The Tampa Bay Times reported the official cause was “projectile wound of head,” with the accidental death believed to be the first fatality from a vape pen explosion.
