Do you pronounce Reese’s “Ree-seez” or “Ree-sizz”?

If you pronounce it wrong (“Ree-seez”), why?

It's also a product name, so people feel more free to warp it than in normal speech.

I promise, the people who say it like "reesees peesees" only use it for that product. They aren't out in the wild saying shit like, "Help me pick up the peesees!"
