Woo hoo! This is a DANGEROUS thing! I love, love, LOVE this site. Whenever anyone in my family hears about a new or special edition candy, we all go on a “candy quest” to see who can find it first. For my niece’s 16th birthday, I even orchestrated a candy quest birthday party. The fun part about a candy quest is that if you go to a store and the sought-after candy is not there, you get to pick up a “consolation candy”. It’s a win-win!
We have been questing for the dark chocolate batman Reese’s, but so far, all we’ve found are milk chocolate! Anybody in the East Bay (CA) find them yet?

I registered an account on the forums but when I was e-mailed the activation e-mail I accidentally marked it as unsafe after I read it
it showed up in my junk e-mail box
I had a password reset e-mail sent to me and when I opened that and clicked the link it told me my account wasn’t activated
is there anything you can do?
the e-mail I listed in this comment is the same e-mail I registared with
I was wondering if any of you have ever seen or received a 5 pound Hershey’s bar. Well I did, what a lot of chocolate. I couldn’t help but laugh. I also couldn’t wait to open it and begin my journey through the delicious milk chocolate bar. It was huge. Since then I’ve sent several to family and friends as gifts. Who would have thought to do that? Their available on the Hershey’s website.
Hello… So i got this email today from the Hershey company. i recently entered a sweepstakes on the website, so they had my info. This is what the email said:
Dear Hershey Consumer,
At Hershey, we are committed to open communications with our consumers and other stakeholders. As a result, we want to take a moment to inform you about a recent incident and the steps we took to correct it. We recently discovered that an unauthorized individual accessed one of our websites and altered one of our baking recipes. As you know, Hershey’s recipes are built on our legacy of offering the highest-quality products for more than 100 years. Consumers rely on us for this information, and we take the quality of our baking and cooking recipes very seriously.

it goes on, but i thought it was interesting and wanted to find out what it was about, and ran into this website. Not sure if anyone still goes on here, but if anyone knows about it, i’d like to know what exactly was changed. thank you!

No biggie Elizabeth - I activated you from this end. So you should be good to go now!
Wow, that was fast!
Thank you!
I love your site. I am a total Candy addict and love reading your reviews of the various candies.
I recently heard about “Chocolate the exhibition” at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn Michigan and can’t wait to go.
