Interesting, I thought it was just me getting old because I had noticed that peanut butter cups tasted different, maybe it was not just my age?

I ate a dark chocolate bar yesterday and didn’t even finish it. It does not even taste like chocolate.

I used to love the Easter Eggs. Last year they tasted different and didn’t get many.

Agree - I had a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup recently and the taste was “off” and I did not enjoy it. Never let your accountants run your company (I am an accountant BTW), they’ll run it right into the ground. Wake up Reese’s...

Hersey bar ARE NOT considered chocolate overseas .
There CRAP does not use enough Real Chocolate to be sold overseas.

hershey products totally suck for anyone who is truly a chocolate lover: they’ve mostly replaced actual chocolate with more sugar, and of course kids basically can’t tell the difference because all they care about is the sugar ...

do a blind taste test: give someone a little square of hershey’s chocolate to taste, rinse and rest, and then give them a square of chocolove dark chocolate and have them tell you which one is real chocolate ...

Same experience here... recently tried one and it wasn’t the same. Something has changed.
