The first time I tried Hersheys I only had a few bites before saying to my family that it tasted like vomit. They thought I was exaggerating but didn't like it either. I was genuinely horrified that people would eat something that tasted that way as confectionery. I remember googling 'vomit' and 'Hersheys' at the time to see if I was the only one, but couldn't find any other matter-of-fact or serious reference to the likeness. And bam, here it is on HN years later.
p.s. British

- jamesbrownuhh 13y agoDitto - I was genuinely really surprised the first time I tried an imported Hershey bar, via the good people at Cybercandy. I was shocked that something which is seemingly such a famous name amongst chocolate brands was actually, when tasted, just kind of awful, really.
