Hershey is giving other candy/food manufacturers below-market deals on chocolate or above-market licensing deals to produce their chocolate candies in the USA so Americans don’t discover how much better chocolate tastes without butyric acid. Inexpensive foreign chocolate could destroy The Hershey Company and there are big companies like Nestlé or Mondelēz that could do it relatively easily but instead let Hershey’s produce their brands under license with butyric acid added.

    As a Brit, Hershey chocolate is an abomination. I'm a fat fuck who looooooves chocolate, but even I couldn't stomach a bag of Kisses that someone once brought back for me. Awful shit.

    And now you fuckers have bought Cadbury, even that chocolate has become dog shit. Not as disgusting, but nowhere near as good as it was.

    Can Americans please stop making food. Let the world bring it to you.

    I’ve always liked KitKat. It’s a good candy bar. But when I learned that Nestlé makes KitKat in the rest of the world, and Hershey makes it in the US, I knew I needed to try some of the forbidden Nestlé KitKat. (Forbidden both because we don’t have it in the US, and also because fuck Nestlé).

    Now any time I travel outside the US, I come home with a bag of Nestlé KitKats. They’re so much better than the Hershey version, which is already good!
