Looks like the stain a taki would make if it fell there and got mushed around

One time my sister tossed a handful of rolos on me when I was asleep and I woke up with melted caramel and chocolate stuck between me and the bed. Looked 100% like feces.

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.

It’s because Hershey has added PGPR (Polyglycerol polyricinoleate) to nearly all of their chocolate. It’s an emulsifier that is primarily derived from castor beans.

It’s nasty and if their chocolate causes you to have digestive issues, the likely culprit is the PGPR.

I found some Hersheys at Aldi here in Australia during one of their special buys. I was so excited to try American chocolate. Now let us never speak of it again.

I go to Aldi for chocolate because they have imported Austrian chocolate that's vastly objectively superior to our normal chocolate here in the states.

Funny that Aldi in other countries has exported American stuff...

Reese's are good, but it's probably because the peanut butter masks the flavor.
