Still not diversifying from the candy business. Much of the “breakfast cereal” produced is just breakfast candy, with some form of sugar being the primary ingredient.
And high-fructose corn syrup is the worst.

I was a bit shocked when Ferrero bought out Nestle's U.S. candy bar line. It is only an accident of history that Hershey wound up with Kit Kat, and Ferrero Crunch doesn't have the same ring as Nestle Crunch.
Now we are down to major candy brands (Mars, Hershey, Ferrero [1/2], Mondelez [1/2]), a couple of bit players, (Tootsie,Spangler)
Taps for the brands of my childhood that were bought out or disappeared:
Peter Paul, Bonomo, Curtiss, Leaf, Heath, Hollywood, Squirrel.

Yup.
The ingredients for this crap comes delivered in railroad tank cars.
That’s something to think about.
