Movin' on up!
Periodically, some of my work friends bring me chocolate candy as a payback for always being able give them a "fix". This week, Christy brought some fudge Hershey's Kisses.

For the first time, in a long time, Hershey's let me down. These kisses are NOT good. There is none of the rich creaminess, that I expect from a Hershey's Kiss and the taste is rather bland. I'm grateful that Christy brought those in. If I had spotted them, I would have bought a bag and wasted the money.

Over the past couple of years, I have tried most of Hershey's new kisses and liked most of them. I am adding the fudge kisses to my "don't like" list. They are joining Hugs (don't like white "chocolate"), mint and carmel kisses. Rich Dark Chocolate, kisses with almonds and kisses with almonds and toffee chips will continue to find their way into my desk drawer and thence, to my work friends.

Well, they sound like they would taste delicious - but then again I guess you don't know untill you try them.


I am not a big chocolate fan myself but I do love the orginial Hershey's Kisses!

I bought the strawberry and cream one yesterday. They are white chocolate swirled with strawberry. I thought they would taste awesome. I was wrong, they were yucky!
They tasted like fake strawberry ice cream. I like the natural flavored strawberry ice cream, but the artificial is just yucky!

I like the original, the hugs, and the caramel are not too bad.

When I do eat chocolate I prefer the dark chocolate, but I am trying to avoid chocolate these days.

I love Hershey Kisses and usually have a cookie jar full of them for my moments of weakness. I have never heard of the fudge or strawberry. I guess I need to get out more.

I buy the assorted Hershey's Nuggets, to keep in my desk drawer: milk chocolate, dark choc w/almonds, milk choc w/almonds and milk chocw/almonds and toffee chips. Right now, I'm on a Butterfinger binge and have fun-size ones of those, too.

Debby, chocolate is GOOD for you as well as tasting good. I wouldn't avoid it, that's for sure. It has some of the same health benefits as tomatoes and those other veggies that are good for your heart, and guess what, dark chocolate is the best for you.

I by the way love chocolate in any form except for white chocolate.

Debby, eat the chocolate. The theobromines in it stimulate the pleasure centers in your brain, causung a mild euphoria. Its a LEGAL high!
.

Being a chocolholic is not a bad thing. Nobody ever robbed a liquor store, to buy chocolate. I can eat a six-pack of Hershey bars (figuratively speaking), get into my car, drive down the road and not get arrested or hurt anyone.

The Aztecs were right: chocolate is a gift from the gods!
