“We aim to delight our consumers and these steps will provide an even wider range of portion options and clear information to help them select treats that fit their lifestyle,” Hershey president and CEO Michele Buck said.

'Bull crap' says I.

Oh no! What an awful way to increase their profit margin. I'm sure it is doing just fine. The U.S. has
a much bigger selection of Hershey products than we have here in Canada. Hershey Canada's selection is not that big. The main manufacturing plant
for Hershey's Canada was in Smiths Falls. A small town in Eastern Ontario.
One day they announced they were moving to Mississauga, Ontario and put 1000's out of a job. It was the biggest employer in that area. They
had a factory outlet store too and the bargains and selection was
excellent.

Have you noticed ice-cream products (those not in pints or half gallons) have reduced in size? So many companies do this and the price doesn't budge; if anything it goes up. :mad:
Hershey's is making a gutsy move in changing or adjusting their classic recipe (did I read that correctly?)
Ayuh! And if anyone noticed Mrs. Smith pies went from around an 11 circumference to about 9 1/2 a couple of years ago. I usually only buy Marie Callender's pies but sometimes I get Mrs. Smith's as the Callender's pies are so big.

Do they think we're dumb?
What about the sodapop/cokes that have an almost hourglass bottle? Really? Slick move. :rolleyes: Yeah, we didn't notice the 4 ounces that mysteriously disappeared. Lol

Yep. They do. I realize that costs are always going up and such but, come on, to take portions away and charge the same price is stupid.
