TheHershey Co. has added a new disclaimer to Reese’s Peanut Butter Pumpkinsfollowing a legal battle overclaims that images on the packaging did not match the actual candy.
 Packagesof the seasonal treat now feature the words "Carving not on actualproduct" next to an image of the pumpkin-shaped Reese’s withjack-o'-lantern-style eyes and a mouth, according to product images on the official Hersheyland website.
 Thedisclaimer appears in small text on the front and back of the packaging.
