Oh goody! More oxymoronic “fun size!” candy bars. With fewer almonds in the chocolate.
Happy consumers marched from their offices and factories carrying banners praising Hersheys for providing us with healthier chocolate in smaller portions at greater cost.
Dove is from Hershey’s. Case closed.
.
“Quality” is not a term that I would associate with either.

Get some 80% bars.
Almost no sugar, and delicious (+ healthy too)

They may be trying to get ahead of the ‘sugar causes diabetes’ curve. Buy stock in Stevia.
White privilege chocolate?
There’s a racy joke in there somewhere.
Seems to be the prevailing method these days of trying to hide price increases. Pay more or the same price for less product.
I see what you did there. :)
noun: double entendre;
a word or phrase open to two interpretations, one of which is usually risqué or indecent.
If it ain’t broke, fix it until it is.
I love chocolate. I do not consider Hershey’s to be chocolate. I wouldn’t eat it. They are making it worse? It’s some sort of fake vanilla tasting plastic already.
Cadbury is low quality chocolate that melts into sludge in the mouth, but it tastes GREAT. If you are slumming for cheaper chocolate, Cadbury’s will surely do. Hershey’s should not be legally allowed to be called chocolate.
LOL, that did occur to me too!
Just to make you guys a little jealous.....
My wife and I own a Chocolate Factory in Roswell, GA....
We only make highend, European style chocolates....ganauches, buttercreams, truffles....etc.
Everything is made on site, from the fillings to the chocolate blend...
We have a lot of European (Belgium, French, German and Swiss) customers that tell us our chocolate is better than what they get at home....
Our ganauche is grade A heavy cream with chocolate folded in and then flavored with a liquor, Bailey’s, Ammeretto etc,
Pistachio - we grind fresh roasted pistachio’s into a paste and fold it in... and so on for the 84 different flavors and styles we sell....There is a Yuuuuuge difference using fresh quality ingredients....
Hershey’s is crap and so is Godiva now since they went national and are more interested in shelf life and profit over quality....
Our shop has won a variety of awards and has been featured on two reality TV shows.....
I kind of like stevia. I put it in ice tea, and it collects on the bottom the way sugar does...:)
I’ll try making some ice cream with it next time I do that.
Heck...I would definitely eat it if were included in my emergency rations, or I was stuck in a life raft!
Yes, I would as well in those conditions!
Rum nougats are the bomb.
