Tip: More of a fact that Reese's and Ice Breakers are brands that fall under the Hershey's Canada product line. I visited Hershey, PA what feels like eons ago. I drove down from Markham to attend an American Hockey League (AHL) playoff game between the Hershey Bears and the Manitoba Moose. Giant Center, where the Bears Play, is at Hersheypark, as is Hershey's Chocolate World. The Hershey Company owns everything at Hersheypark. I find it neat that the entire town is named after a company known for candy and chocolate. It didn't matter where you were in Hershey. You could smell the chocolate! I am certain that I got into visiting Hershey stores in my travels through this first visit to Hershey, PA. My visits to the stores in Niagara Falls (Canada), Las Vegas, and Shanghai come to mind. The flagship store is obviously in Hershey, PA. It was an amazing experience. The cool part was picking up a bunch of Hershey's Chipits in butterscotch. It was one of those hard-to-find flavours locally back then. It was so easy snatching a few bags for baking cookies and more. I think of chocolate bars when the Hershey's name is mentioned. The classic milk chocolate comes to mind. I like that it has expanded its flavour profile to include cookies and cream, dark chocolate, birthday cake, and almonds. At Easter, I do like a bag of Eggies. I like that you can get dark and milk chocolate varieties, with both having a candy coating on the outside of each Eggie (or is it Eggy for the singular?). I like Hershey's Kisses. The original milk chocolate is classic. I love candy cane Kisses that hit stores just before Christmas. The cookies and cream ones are also yummy. Besides the Hershey's brand, the Hershey's company also has these brands under its product umbrella: - Reese's - Chipits - Jolly Rancher - Oh Henry! - Twizzlers - Whoppers - Glosette - Skor - Brookside - Ice Breakers - Eat More - York I probably consume more Reese's, Jolly Rancher, Oh Henry!, Whoppers, and Ice Breakers on this list. So good! Hershey's Canada has its headquarters in Mississauga, near where I work. Sadly, it doesn't smell like chocolate whenever I'm driving to work. It should! I don't mind Hershey's and its products. I feel like some Reese's white chocolate cups, which are also awesome. (377) read more

What candy company has a whole town named after it? Hershey's of course! Chances are, unless you have never eaten chocolate, you have eaten a Hershey product at some point. They make some of the world's favorite candies and confections. Their products range from the basic chocolate bar to hard candies (Jolly Ranchers) with all kinds of candies in between. They also make chocolate and other flavors syrups too! There is a lot of goodness that comes from this company! My personal favorite is the Krackle Bar!!! read more

Payday: First introduced in 1932 at the height of The Great Depression, Payday candy bars at the time were supposedly viewed as meal replacements (was I born in the wrong time or what!?). I sort of buy that as the bars are peanut-dense and contain 6g of protein. Each bar's surface is teeming with salted peanuts that are adhered to a nougat-like caramel center. The Hollywood Candy Company is rumored to have named Paydays as such because it was first produced on the company's pay day. After numerous deals (I'll spare you the details) Hershey became the candy bar's producer in 1996 and has remained so ever since. Payday bars never got my attention until I read about some characters eating them in a couple novels by one of my favorite authors, Stephen King. Trying out my first Payday, the two things that stood out most were the amount of caramel and saltiness of the bar. Although there is a lot of caramel, it's solid and chewy, whereas I prefer caramel as more of a runny filling. I'm also not much for peanuts, even though peanut butter is one of my favorites. The combination of chewy caramel and salt from the peanuts left a dry sensation in my mouth. Stephen King may be a legendary author, but I don't understand why out of all the great candy bars out there, he was so enamored with this one as it's just okay @payday_bar @hersheys . My favorite candy bars: 1. Whatchamacallit 2. Reese's Outrageous! 3. 100 Grand 4. Snickers Crunchy Peanut Butter 5. Whozeewhatzit 6. Kit Kat Mocha + Chocolate Duos tied with Birthday Cake Kit Kat 7. Cadbury Caramello *Notable mentions: Hershey's Milk Chocolate, Hershey's Gold, Milky Way Simply Caramel read more

The Hershey Company Store Review for Yelp Thank You Thursday 11/17/22 This review was removed twice already. Third Times a Charm. I'm thinking about Chocolate! The Hershey Company, commonly known as Hershey's, is an American multinational company and one of the largest chocolate manufacturers in the world. It also manufactures baked products, such as cookies, cakes, milk shakes, drinks and many more. Its headquarters are in Hershey, Pennsylvania, which is also home to Hersheypark and Hershey's Chocolate World. It was founded by Milton S. Hershey in 1894 as the Hershey Chocolate Company. If you visit Hersheypark I recommend you stop in this store or any other nearby stores that sell Hershey Brand. But first look up the store on Yelp and read the reviews before you go! I'm a fan and I know many of you are too! You can enjoy Hershey Cocoa to this day. It was my families favorite. I've got a cute Tin of which I'm posting a photo. Hershey Memorabilia is very cool to collect. Hershey's Kisses, M & M's, and Reese's Peanut Butter Cups are my three favorites. read more

Ordered online in response to a Black Friday sale advertised by email. Before the order was received, they sent another email offering a much better discount. I called to request a price adjustment and they refused. I was told that the order had already been shipped and I should have read the FAQ!! Poor business practice on the refusal to honor the lower price and for sending conflicting sale offers. This has cost Hershey a longtime customer. read more

Yeah, I know candy offerings have suffered across-the-board downsizing and formula changes to save a buck but that should not diminish the need to celebrate the existence of the tastiest foodstuff the world have ever known - of course I am referring to the humble but mighty Reese's Peanut Butter Cup. Concocted in the Hershey Pennsylvania basement of former company employee, H.B. Reese in 1923, the iconic cups in the orange sleeve have become the largest selling confectionery product in the United States since it's virtually impossible to stop at one. To me it's the exquisite aftertaste that is a nonpareil sensation. To company chemists, it is said to be derived from their exclusive use of Diamond Crystal brand salt. Other aficionados point to the unique cleaving of the cup on first bite that unleashes the wondrous mix of complimentary tastes. Whatever it is, it's amazing. The only thing I'm sure of is that I can't (and won't) keep any on hand since they make crack cocaine look like baby formula. There's always Halloween to stock up, you know... for the children. read more

Who doesn't love taking a ride down the Hershey Highway to visit Hershey's? My trip here when I was younger was fun, because chocolate is fun, but let's be honest here. Hershey's sucks so bad. Hershey literally makes the worst chocolate I've ever eaten in my life. I've had some pretty bad versions of chocolate - but nothing is as disgusting as this. American chocolate in general is awful but this one is bottom-of-the-barrel. I would literally rather eat any other chocolate than this. Tastes like it's been sitting in a cardboard box in the Attic since 1967. read more

The Hershey Company - I'll go for a saucerful of secrets, or more. - Candy Stores Near Me - Hershey, Pennsylvania

Chocolate! Hershey's is a public company (traded on the New York Stock Exchange as HSY) with over $7.8b in revenue. I thought that they were much bigger than that, but they are barely a quarter the size of the Mars Company (https://www.yelp.com/biz/mars-mclean-2?hrid=oxPmGYQXaUIGuCDkc3Xgnw). I've been enjoying Hershey's for years but less and less now that I've been on a keto diet. Keto means no carbs and certainly no sugar. When Hershey's starts making some chocolate with other sweeteners, I'll be back. Milton S. Hershey started a candy shop in Philadelphia which did not succeed. Then caramels in Denver. And finally, in 1896, he bought a milk-processing plant to develop a recipe for milk-chocolate candies. In 1899, the result was The Hershey process and it's been awesome ever since. Milton passed in 1945. Other than the eponymous chocolate bars, Hershey's also manufacturs Almond Joy, Mounds, Kit Kat, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups (the best-selling candy brand in the United States with sales of $2.603 billion), Whoppers and York Peppermint Patties. Yum! [Review 13677 overall, 996 of 2020, number 548 in Pennsylvania.] read more

they use rly bad ingredients for their chocolates and candies. poor taste and not authentic at all. overall not good. so many other better choices for chocolate read more

Hershey's chocolate syrup is no longer real chocolate -- it's "Original Chocolate-Flavored Syrup". This means Hershey's cut out the cocoa butter in the syrup as a cost savings measure. Hershey's has 'saved' nothing. Recently I tried Hershey's syrup against an El-Cheapo dollar-style store's generic chocolate-flavored syrup. I just couldn't tell the difference -- except the Hershey's syrup cost WAY more. read more

Back when you guys purchased Cadbury, "we" all wondered whether you might ruin the chocolate. Put your own twist on it, lessen the quantity, change the taste. You guys did it all. Unfortunately. Why the fuck did you? It's been awhile since I've had a Cadbury bar. I think I've been silently protesting its purchase by Hershey. I just had my first today and it wasn't as good as when Cadbury stood alone. So you guys got rid of the gold foil paper. You also made the bars a lot less in shape and more like a typical Hershey bar. Why? Who buys Hershey bars? Why does it have to be the same? And in the almond bar, why'd you reduce the size of the almonds and the quantity? Aren't you people supposed to be testing these things before you release it? Where'd you test the product in a bar located in BFE under drunken conditions? What a waste. I hope the global product isn't the same. I hate to be thinking that right now there's a Brit overseas that's just purchased a Cadbury bar and as she's pulling the wrapper back notices changes in it's shape and thickness. She's thinking, "bloody fucking Americans". They got to shit on everything. Is that what you want people to think of us! Sure, I guess I could have written a fluff piece about my love for Hershey's products and the love I had as a child. But, the one damn thing I enjoy about adulthood and you ruin it. Assholes. read more

I like Bubbles. I like bubble baths. I like making bubbles. I like bubbly I like floating bubbles. I used to like bubble gum. Sad but true but I have out grown one of my favorite past times and no longer chew bubble gum. I've been off bubble gum for quite some time and cannot even recall the last time I placed a stick of gum in my mouth. Back inn the day Original Flavored Bubble Yum was my chewing gum of choice. The flavor seemed to stay much longer than other chewing gums and was tastier to boot. I just learned that Hershey's bought Bubble Yum some time ago. How smart of them as they have chosen the best of all the gums to be part of their line up. I'm not certain of bubble gum is lascivious, but Bubbles surely is. read more

3.5 stars. Imagine: You walk into a room and see an individual. A person you know but they hardly look recognizable. It could be your son, your daughter, mother or even your father. Your significant other or a cousin or a friend. They are having a chocolate moment. Their pupil's are dilated only revealing shifting, soulless back eyes. They have chocolate smeared all over their face and hands. Fresh from the kill. They look at you with a startled look on their face but at this point and time you know they are running on instinct alone. They bare their teeth and take another big bite of chocolate. I think we all have had a chocolate moment. Women seem freely to admit that they love chocolate but men don't like to admit that they are vulnerable to it. You know they are when they go to a store and a candy bar they want it out of stock. Their reaction shows this. Not their words... but their reaction. I often have chocolate moments but when I have candy from Hershey's it is usually during my break at work and I manage to restrain my feral side. Sometimes my hands tell me otherwise and I have to sheepishly wash them off before going back to work. My current infatuation from products from Hershey's is the Crunchy Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. They are fairly new and I find myself buying one package of them a day. For shame! Another favorite is the Hershey's Chocolate Bar with Almonds. In recent years I have raised my nose a bit and only REALLY go crazy with specialty chocolate bars that have a high cacao number. It is even better if they are infused with unusual ingredients. However I always find myself back with these 'everyday' kinds of chocolate bars. I enjoy them all of the same. I find it hard to believe that vanilla is still the number one flavor in America. Although I am very fond of the flavor it just can't trump chocolate. Not even on it's best day. I think many people agree with me on this. I mean when you go to a grocery or a convenience store you don't see a bunch of vanilla candy bars laying around do you? read more

The Hershey bar is one of the finest products out there. Of course the selection is large and includes Milk, Dark, almonds, peanuts (Mr. Good Bar), Crispy Rice (Krackel) as well as special products such as 5th Avenue and Heath. Non chocolate products include Payday and the Hershey Gold bar. Of course Resses's is as good as it gets and includes a large selection from regular, pieces, crunchy, and cookie. Hershey has something for everyone. read more
