Remember there is a boycott on these guys for not having any dog related items in the store.

Ed, being English i hadn't heard of Hersheys before i joined JL, it is your major chocolate company right? simillar to Cadburys over here i'm guessing.

What is Hershey Kisses, apart from a stunningly beautiful 12 month old chocolate lab that i know, is it a specific bar of chocolate or something else?

Three Hershey Kisses, not the Lab


Typically a milk chocolate 'drop' or 'kiss' wrapped in silver foil. They have expanded to other color foils, dark chocolate, almond, whatever they can sell.

Hershey is a major chocolate company, candy, cocoa, syrups. At one point they probably owned the whole town of Hershey, PA, USA where the candy factory is located. The chocolate is probably a tier below Cadbury, and least the Cadbury I see here. But it is good. A lot of kids candy bars are sold. I am told some of them are eaten by adults, but I deny it.

You can get a lot more information on the interent.
