Possibly The Best Candy Bar In the World? Hershey's Cookies N Cream (european, peanut butter)

[cheesecracker]

OK my Forum Peeps.

I have seen this candy bar on the shelf for about a year now: HERSHEY'S Cookies&Cream

Went in to the local convenience store to pick up a different candy bar, but they were sold out.
Decided I would give this one a try.
All I can say is: Ohhhhhh Myyyyy Gooooodenessss! What a delicious candy bar.

If you have not had one, go get one.
For those of you who are looking for a reason worth living, this may be it. It is that good.
Get the King Size.

YUK, tried it, did nothing for me. Neither did the ice cream.

I don't like Hershey's stuff. No thanks.

Not by a long shot...

I like the Symphony Milk Chocolate bar with almonds and toffee chips better. But those cookies and cream ones - if you break them up and scatter them over the pan of brownies before you put the pan in the oven, it comes out pretty tasty.

I tried it when they first came out, and thought it tasted like lard. I was really disappointed, I thought it looked delicious.

I know someone who "collected" a bar Hersey made for the troops that wouldn't melt in the desert heat.

Europeans hate our super sweet and milk diluted chocolate. It's a matter of taste.

I know kids' tastes change with age but a lot of the candy bars I now eat must be different from those I ate as a child. Just not as good.

Slap me, but I liked Chuckles but don't think they are made anymore. Boston Baked Beans aren't a bar, but - so good.

Man, I miss that sugar high.

Many Europeans don't like Hershey's chocolate. They consider it sour tasting as compared to Cadbury etc. Apparently Reece's peanut butter cups are not real big there either. Hazelnut is usually preferred over peanut butter. Some years ago I read a book about chocolate that noted that when Reece's were introduced in Germany at a big PR party, the folks invited to taste the PB cups took a big bite, and most reportedly spit it out in disgust. Not sure if that's a true story or not, but it's too good not to share. I can imagine the mortified look on the PR peoples faces.
