So Hersey make a chocolate flavoured sugar paste using some sort of license to use the Cabury's Milk Chocolate brand name, they are upset that the UK/Ireland made Cabury Milk Chocolate is actually made out of Milk and Chocolate and shits all over what they make?

I find this odd since Cadbury is shit in the first place, Galaxy is much better...

From further research it appears the company importing was selling products Hershey already has trademarks for, not using "flavored sugar paste"(as much as everyone else views american food as shit and theirs isnt);

That Cadbury/Hershey thing really pisses me off, and I don't even eat chocolate (But when I do I prefer the stuff from overseas). If they ever ban Ghiradelli I will burn this motherfucker down! Fuck Hershey!

Fucking seriously. I use their stuff for all my baking needs. If I ever have to use Hershey I'll just stop baking chocolate stuff.

mmmm yum! Just looking at this bag of candy makes me want to vomit.

Yo they gotta protect consumers from accidentally buying stuff that doesn't taste like recycled ass, they might actually prefer it!

Milk chocolate more or less tastes the same, regardless of where it's made and what company makes it.

Ghirardelli is safe from this kind of shenanigans since it is a company based in San Francisco that got bought by Lindt (a swiss chocolatier). I am not sure if they import and rebrand, manufacture in California with a swiss formula or just make their own thing, but anyway the situation is different from the Cadbury/Hershey situation.

The different dark chocolates in the Lindt Excellence line is what I eat the most myself:

Hershey and other US companies are making a lot of candy nowadays with "Chocolatey Coatings" which are, obviously, not chocolate. Even the Girl Scouts can't deny the market pressure to cheapen their cookies.
