Difference in flavour
Being used to UK and continental European chocolate and having recently tried Hershey chocolate I'm interested to know the basis of the significant difference in flavour. Clearly it's partly down to personal taste and to what one is used to but personally, I found the Hershey chocolate mildly unpleasant and a friend even went so far as to say it had "a slight redolence of puke". Evidently millions of people would disagree with me and I hope nobody is insulted but what is the diffference in the ingredients or manufacture that causes this marked difference in flavour?

GA Reassessment
- This discussion is transcluded from Talk:The Hershey Company/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the reassessment.
This article no longer meets the bulk of the GA criteria. The prose is no longer well-written and the article, particularly the history section, is in need of copyediting and clean up (criteria 1). There are huge amounts of unsourced data throughout the article, and some questionable sources being used. A book is listed as a reference, with no actual citations to show how it is being used, nor what pages. The references are also badly formatted, with almost all of them missing key data. This fails GA criteria 2. It does not appear to be broad in coverage, containing only a history of the company and a section on product recalls. There is undoubtedly much more to say about such a long running, large company (criteria 3).
I have left relevant tags on the article related to these issues, and left notifications with relevant projects and primary contributers. If there is no sign of the article being corrected so that it can meet these criteria again, it will be delisted as a GA on September 28, 2008. Additional time will be allowed if there is an active effort seen to correct the article. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 17:38, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
- As per the above notes, this article has been delisted as a GA article as nothing has been done to the article since the initial notice was posted and no response was left here. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 05:23, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
discontinuing use of cocoa butter in some products
There have been reports that Hershey's is no longer allowed to use 'Milk Chocolate' for some of it's product due to their cutting back on the use of cocoa butter for financial reasons. THe U.S. FDA says they need to declare such products 'chocolate candy' instead.Rickremember (talk) 01:59, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
- I've heard something similar, with people boycotting as its no longer real chocolate. However, reliable sources are needed before it can be added to the article. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 02:13, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

- I believe MSNBC has an article pertaining to this subject -I, however, don't have the time to add it all into the article.Rickremember (talk) 02:32, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
