My family hosted a foreign exchange student from the Faroe Islands (way back in 1973!). She tasted our chocolate (must have been Hershey's!) and was NOT impressed! She felt bad for us, having to eat that nasty stuff!!

Everything made by Hershey’s now has ‘bioengineered ingredients’

Good luck even finding what that means….

M&Ms also...I always used to have a small bag of peanut M&Ms to stave off hunger pangs...no more.

Bio-engineered ingredients now.

When I was in high school in the 1960's, I loved Crunch Bars. They're still around....I tried one a few months back and it was horrible, I threw it out after one bite. Maybe it was always that bad....

Bioengineered typically means GMO, but genetically modified organism sounds creepy & scary. In candies, it's the sweetener, mostly -- granulated sugar made from sugar beets, corn sweeteners, soy oils, canola, and of course all the artificial colors and "natural" flavors may be GMO origin. Note that CANE sugar, made from actual cane sugar plants hasn't gone GMO. Yet.
