This review is to let everyone know…

This review is to let everyone know that all the chocolate products this company makes are loaded with heavy metals they are slowly poisoning our children out of greed. Most of the name brand companies that make chocolate are also loaded with heavy metals.

Chocolate that tastes political

Hersheys has been going backwards for a while from what it used to taste like, and now that the company has gone woke I am done. We won't buy another Hershey product, it's out of control. You might as well hand them out at Disney since we won't be there either

Their chocolate is vile they should…

Their chocolate is vile they should have left it in America where they don't know what real chocolate taste like. Why would they think the UK and Europe would want theirs when we have the best - yuk go back to the USA Hershey!

When Hershey's brought chocolate over…

When Hershey's brought chocolate over to Britain on a commercial scale, it started off really nice, very lovely tasty chocolate and peanut in prime condition, now the majority I buy are as dry as a bone, 1/3 the size, and with half of them with a big thumb print pushed in to each mini cake, and another third of them crumbling and in several pieces.
I've spoken to the head office and I haven't come across such an uncaring head office in about 20 years (excluding anything to do with government and council).
I do not appreciate this company at all.
