My thoughts on the new Hershey kiss....

So Hershey kiss chocolate candies came out with a new chocolate called Hershey kiss deluxe. Seeing the commercial I instantly thought of Ferrero Rocher chocolates. And Ferrero Rocher is one of my favorites so this kind of bothered me a minute thinking Hershey was trying to be like them. But it peeked my interested and I had to try them to see how they compared. Now my story behind Ferrero Rocher is this. I first had them in Germany back in 1987. I would have been 7 or 8 years old. We moved back to the USA in 1990 and I couldn't find these chocolates any where. Now I don't know if I couldn't find them, or if they just weren't here yet but many years later I finally found them, and jumped up and down with joy. But to finish my assessment of Hersheys....they are not near as good. That is if they were trying to be like Ferrero Rocher. Even in themselves, I still don't like them.... What is your favorite chocolate?

My favorite chocolate is Seroogy's. It's made locally since the late 1800s and just melts in your mouth. I lived three blocks from their shop at one time and vowed I would never go there - why - because I would never stop going there. So I only buy a Seroogy's candy bar when offered for fundraisers. That way I also don't get tired of them. To me it's the best there is. I've never heard of the chocolates you mentioned.

That's a good way to be. I don't get my favorites to often either. They can get expensive anyway. They are more of a special treat for me. I used to only eat them when they were gifted to me. Your favorites sound really neat.

@T_gray They are. I've never had a chocolate bar that was as creamy as this is or melt in your mouth. It's heavenly.

I like Lindt here in the states but in England I like Cadbury or Bendicks.

Never heard of bendicks. I'm guessing that can't be found here in the states by your statement?

Ferrero Rocher tops my fave chocolate list! As far as I know we do not get Hershey here, so I can't compare, but I enjoy Ferrero Rocher over most chocolates. :-)

So Hersey's has new chocolate! Ferrero Roche is also my favorite but sadly this is so expensive in my country so I can't eat this as much as I want or I will drain my budget.

I love Hershey with almonds. I have not seen the commercial for this, but then I do not watch to many commercials. We DVR everything.

I am happy with Babyruth and Butterfinger. Recently, I received a bunch of chocolates from an online friend from Kazahkstan , I like the one with rum inside.Unfortunately I forgot its name lol. But it tastes good.

I like kisses too. My best friend loves them so I try to keep a few around in my candy dish for her when she comes. I love milk chocolate the best
