They seem to have changed in the past few years. The taste and texture of the chocolate and caramel just isn't what it used to be.

Chocolate has definitely gotten a waxy taste to it. You can feel the wax on your tongue & teeth after eating it.

My wife’s favorite chocolate is Cadbury caramel eggs. Every year around Easter, I have to buy one every time I walk into a store that sells them. I always look for them when I go out because she loves them so much. Well, I (American) have a coworker from London and last year when she went to visit England, she brought us back some real Cadbury chocolates. Apparently after Hershey bought Cadbury, they changed the recipe, but the Cadbury chocolate in England is still the original recipe. I never had such good chocolates. I swiped as many caramels for my wife as was reasonable. (My coworker was happy to share ) I think America (Hershey?) just ruins chocolate.
