The EUrophiles are certainly obsessed with it. As for chocolate, personally I think Hershey’s is awful, Cadburies is OK but if I had to choose a national chocolate that was truly great I’d have to go with New Zealand’s Whittakers brand as the best standard mass produced chocolate in the world.
If we start striking trade deals with countries like NZ, I’m hoping we can start importing that.
that is the beginning of the end. Hershey will by them out and then it is all downhill.
Never tried it but certainly will. A good commercially produced chocolate is See's.
A local chocolatier once gave me a solid milk chocolate egg as a gratuity. Best chocolate I ever had.
Well, if you eat Hersheys, perhaps you deserve what you get. We have other brands - in fact, most states here have their own chocolatiers who produce many wonderful chocolate candies. I was just in Mobile recently and bought some terrific stuff in a small, old-fashioned chocolate shop. But of course, you have to shell out for it and it’s easier for most British tourists to buy the cheapest chocolate and food and then grouse about it.
Hershey’s is crime against chocolate.
