I'd rather eat a block of cadmium than Hershey's

Hershey’s sucks. Years ago they petitioned congress to allow them to reduce the amount cocoa butter allowed in chocolate. That’s when their candy started tasting like wax. And I stopped eating it.

I recall them petitioning to allow the name Chocolate on stuff because it tasted like chocolate even though it didn’t contain any chocolate. They lost iirc. Hersheys lost in my estimation and food regulation won.

Agreed, Hershey's is bad but their Special Dark bar has no business being as good as it is.

That being said, it’s basically the only thing that gets used for s’mores.
