One can definitely feel for the yanks, with Hershey's cutting them off from the good stuff

Quite how a supposedly sophisticated culture thinks it can operate effectively when the best known confectionary chocolate available is f**king Hershey's is anyone's guess.

We had Hershey's when we were in Texas. Got it from the vending machine in the hotel. Quite excited we were. Look at me putting a quarter in a vending machine for some Hershey's. It's like something out of a filum. (We were only 22).

I think that was the night my respect for America, on a cultural level at least, took its first turn south. Worldview shattered, instantly. They eat this? This ... this ... what the f**k even is this, it's no chocolate that I know of ... they eat this utter s**t? They even laud the stuff. Fuck does this think itself is, daring to call itself chocolate? Fuck off.
