What are some product categories where the mainstream option IS the best option? (programming.dev)

I was eating some chocolate when I imagined a world where Hershey's was widely accepted, even by elitists, as the best chocolate.

Is consumer elitism just a facade for pretentious contrarians? Or are there things where even most snobs agree with the masses?

Also, I mean that the product is intrinsically considered to be the best option. I'm not considering social products where the user network makes the experience.

Edit: I was not eating Hershey's. Hershey's being the best chocolate is a bizarro universe in this hypothetical.

That's totally fair. I'm not super familiar with them myself, but some of my colleagues used to rave about the brand. I also haven't really carried a multitool for the better part of the last five years, since I changed careers and work in an office now lol.

I like their offset driver design and wish leatherman would come up with something similar- it sucks balls to drive a little screw with any of the leathermen I've owned.
