When they came out they had both milk and dark chocolate variations. Its nice to see the dark side win one.

That has something to do with the way that milk and chocolate is processed

I'm pretty sure it's just that it's mostly sugar (low cocoa %). At least the higher % stuff (like special dark) tastes much better to me. With holiday versions it might have more chocolate than the basic cups (or maybe even just lower cocoa % particularly for easter).

In other countries they have actual standards for cocoa %.

so just a corporate non-answer, great.

I definitely agree that this particular "problem" hardly negatively affects anyone, but I'm always glad to see false advertising cases. There should be strict standards across the board when it comes to deceiving customers, even on things like food presentation

Problems should be solved. I don't understand the sentiment. You aren't being asked to do anything.

For all the pain and misery the chocolate industry is responsible for, we should take what we can get under our system when we can.

I GUESS it makes sense if Hershey doesn't sell directly outside the US, so here you go!

At least those are hand assembled, giving some excuse for it not being perfectly as pictured. But a molded piece of chocolate has no such excuse.

That's every meal there.

I think I've been among the "winners" of three, maybe four class action lawsuits. I think I'm up something like $17.

What's the lie? The product is sold and marketed as being the shape of pumpkins, bats, etc. Not that they are carved.

When I look at the package, I'm under the impression that you could carve the faces out yourself, if you wanteded.

But more realistically, the faces are there to give kids some idea of what the shapes represent. It sets their imagination free.

Product images are never representative of what's in the package, or do people also expect that a bite will already be taken from one when they purchase it, too?

The texture, color, scale and shape may be different from what you're seeing on the package. They are sometimes close, but often not.

This is also very common with fast food and packaged goods. Hell, even the beautiful bananas and apples I see in grocery store flyers are bruised and damaged in the store. Who you gonna sue?

If a bread company promoted their toast bread by having PB&J in the shape of a smiley face on the package, or the bread was walking and talking in their commercial, is someone honestly going to expect that?

Marketing is marketing. The appearance of food is rarely ever what you actually get. And sometimes, imagination is required.

At most, Resses will remove the faces from the package and will be forced to refund uneaten portions. I don't think it's worth the effort, but she can try.

If they do end up losing, I wonder what prescience it sets for other food images.
