    Or … you could just transport it in an unmarked truck, but then there wouldn’t be this perfect free marketing “opportunity”.

      It wasn’t even that kind of a theft. They didn’t like, run the truck off the road and steal the cargo or anything; they just posed as a scheduled relief driver and the prior driver handed them the keys, by my understanding.

      How dare you besmirch the famous Nestlé name! They didn’t murder all those babies and steal all that water and support all that slavery to have their chocolate insulted! How DARE

    Do they expect us to believe that there’s 12 tons or 24,000 pounds of chocolate bars in that little dinky toy of a truck?

    I have eaten 1 kitkat in the last 20 years but after all the news and viral posts, I will never eat one of those foul “chocolates” ever again.

      Fam, we dont have to give Nestlé money if we dont have to (I know its hard to avoid). We can make better confectionaries, and other companies sell less trash chocolate covered cardboard.

      I will however admit, this ad is mildly funny, they put in some effort. Nothing wrong with having fun.

      Naw, basically all major players changed their recipies over the last couple years. They are double the price, but have less chocolate, and more palm oil and other BS.

      Stick with artisan chocolate, or, if you can, figure out which name brand chocolates haven’t changed their schtick yet. I think snickers are still the same, but don’t hold it against me if they aren’t.

        Snickers is made by Mars, and their chocolate has always been higher tier than Nestlé and Hershey’s. Mars also makes the (god tier) 3 Musketeers, the Milky Way/Mars (not sure which one is branded Mars in other countries), and their plain chocolate bar is Dove.

        I think there’s a Mandela Effect around Dove. I, for one, thought Hershey made Dove at some point. I don’t know why. Hershey’s does have a higher-end chocolate called Symphony, but I haven’t seen it in years. It’s creamier than their regular bar.

        Look up Wilton’s chocolate buttercream recipe. It’s cake frosting. But nothing says you can’t eat it on its own. Pipe it into Hershey’s Kiss shaped dollops on a sheet of parchment/wax paper and chill, eat them like little mousse bites. It’s basically a stick of butter, I think 3 cups of sifted powdered/Confectioners sugar, and milk to control the texture/consistency. Some people add vanilla extract — of course, you could hit it with whatever other extract to tweak the flavour a bit. Maybe you want minty chocolate? Peppermint extract. There are options.
