No, that's Hershey's. But I like Ghirardelli when I eat chocolate, anyway, the rare times I do.

Cadbury is barely one step above Hershey's. Although that Green & Black's chocolate is amazing, and I think they were owned by Cadbury.

Regardless, I won't eat Cadbury anything.

I haven't had Cadbury's in years, but they were always better than Hershey's. Sad, but not surprising if they went downhill like the rest. Plus, I just remembered that US Cadbury products are different than the UK made stuff, there was a minor controversy years ago over it.

Not a huge chocolate person, but there's plenty better than Hershey's and Cadbury. Some of the European boutique stuff is amazing, but too expensive when that rare craving for chocolate happens. Or just get some Toblerone.

American chocolate was cheapened during WW2. They mixed it with wax and used extra sugar to mask the waxy flavor. It pretty much stayed that way.

Because of this, Cadbury in Europe is probably much different than what they sell here in the US.

I knew the UK stuff was good, that's where I bought it. And I know the US stuff, like Hershey's is shit, because it's all fructose syrup now, not sugar. It has that same gross, cloying over-sweet thing all American food has now.

Cadbury's was bought out years ago. Even the UK stuff sucks now
