RawnyThose She/Her He/Him chocolate would make a nice gift for someone I know. Too bad they aren't shipping until April. I need them within a week.
I can ask them to sent me a gift certificate to redeem later, like Kenner did. Heck, just sent me the wrappers. I'll put them on the Her/She bar myself. She wouldn't know the difference. She might even enjoy the irony.

Let us know what you think of the chocolate.
I'm kind of a "chocolate snob." E.g.: I never buy the common Hershey milk "chocolate" you see on store shelves and in convenience stores. That stuff, much of the stuff we see here labeled "chocolate," bears about as much resemblance to real chocolate as most American mass-produced "beer" does to real beer.
It won't ship until late next month, but I'll try to remember. Not sure my review will help you though. I'm not a big chocolate eater and not picky on the occasions when I do indulge.

armoredI recently discovered DOT'S pretzels and enjoy them but NOT enough to support Hershey Corp.
I will have to discover what other companies Hershey owns so I can include them on my "NEVER AGAIN" list.
This WOKE business sure helps whittle down the choices when I pull out my wallet.
I still enjoy going into a restaurant and asking the server what brand soft drinks they offer. If Coke, telling the server that I don't buy Coke products because they don't like white people or that they want me to apologize for being white, is a no go.
Water will be fine.

I don't know if this is such a good idea. Perhaps let the waiter know that you'd like them to brush their teeth before they spit in your food...

Pipe SmokerI don’t have a sweet tooth. The only candy I keep on hand is Ghirardelli 100% Cacao. I buy 4 oz bars that are scored such that they can be broken into eight half ounce squares. I limit myself to one half ounce square per day. I do enjoy that little treat.

I break up their bars when I make chocolate chunk pan-bang cookies. But I think I use the 70%.

corsairHershey acting-out on social vandalism.
Like we see in the academia, civic governance and the entertainment industry, the DEI push infects every aspect of society to include areas of consumption. Those individuals who were already left-leaning, received a cultural green-light to go 'all-in' and over-swing the social pendulum regardless of their profession and industry. It's remarkable how much the C-suites fell for this and allowed themselves to be led around by this non-sense, the lack of backbone and fundamental grounding, has been exposed over this last 5-years.

flashguyMy favorite chocolate is Nestle's or Cadbury's, but neither brand is very common where I shop.

PatenAccording to that link of products manufactured by The Hershey Company posted above, Cadbury's is made by the Hershey company. I prefer Dove chocolate myself. I think it's better tasting and smoother.

Captain MorganFor me its not just the chocolate. I would take my kids to Hershey Park to enjoy the rides. I guess this is out now.

ensigmaticThe
Choceur brand chocolate at Aldi's is pretty good chocolate. The
Pound Plus chocolate at Trader Joe's is also very good. Looks like both are available from Amazon, too.

AglifterI wonder if being owned by a charity would make Hershey’s liable for being political?
