I chose to follow The Hershey Company because I love candy and the story behind the company! Milton S. Hershey's story is quite inspiring. My in-laws live 45 minutes from Hershey, PA, and I have to make a stop at Chocolate World every time I come up for a visit!

I love Hershey's chocolate. I need to check out this Chocolate World. I am interested in the story behind it as well. Good choice.
ReplyDeleteHershey's is a good choice. I recommend you follow Lucian Gower's blog on Hershey's competitor, Mars.
ReplyDeleteIt might be an interesting exercise the next time you are at the checkout in the grocery store to check the candy items and see which one are Hershey and which ones are Mars --- is your grocery store a Hershey store or a Mars store?
When a friend of mine visited Hershey, PA, they really enjoyed it and brought me souvenirs.
ReplyDeleteIt's funny that you mentioned how inspiring the Hershey story is; I have recently read an article about the school he founded. I'll have to see if I can find that. Not to mention my husband and I eat a lot of chocolate.
