“chocolate” in mainstream candy is such garbage now. I couldn’t bring myself to get the kiddos Reese’s peanut butter eggs this year and I used to love those
I refuse to buy anything except real chocolate bars by lindt or similar “premium” brands
Honestly, some of the best chocolate you can get is just semi-sweet baking chips
Dude and what the hell is it with that weird vomity aftertaste? I swear to god I dont remember it being that way when I was a kid but something in the new chocolate just leaves such a nasty aftertaste on my mouth…
In order to stabilize the milk they use in the milk chocolate bars and make them last longer on the shelf, they treat it with a process that converts some of the milk fats into butyric acid. That’s the vomit flavor. I’m sorry to report that it has probably always tasted that way, you just didn’t notice. They’ve been using the same process since the early 20th century.
It was popularised after world war 2, iirc, so it’s been the way it is for a good while.
Finally! No more vomit-flavored chocolate!
No, they’re going back to vomit flavor chocolate. There was a recent change that made it even worse, and they’re undoing it.
This sounds like a metaphor for American politics
When you figure out how easy it is to make buckeyes, you never feel smart buying Reese’s again.
What are buckeyes?
The seed of state tree of america’s favorite place… Ohio.
But also the confectionary of the same name is dope.
Aaand now a lit of people will go out and buy some. It will be a bit more expensive but it is better materials.
Then tey will get a positive reinforcement and they more likely buy again next time.
Genius marketing.
Ohh and every news outlet talking about it also. For freaking feeWe call it Hershey’s Classic®️
Hershey was off the road and into the weeds for a bit there but now they are back on the highway!
yes they are backtracking to producing merely bad chocolate.
They spelled Reecee wrong
