Unrelated, I have 11 and a half tons of kit kats I need to sell quickly.

[–] cyan_mess@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 month ago

I'm willing to buy your 11 tons of kitkat.

[–] HeyJoe@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Theres a kit kat cereal!? I would expect the worst, but absolutely would try it.

[–] Dagnet@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

I've tried it in my country and it tasted awful

[–] Slovene85@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 month ago

I just heard about it from Garron. "Fuck you Nestle!"

Could be worse... Thieves could've swapped them with the American puke flavored ones.

[–] AlligatorBlizzard@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

At least ours aren't made by Nestle.

[–] prex@aussie.zone 2 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Hang on.
America has non-nestle, puke flavoured kit-kats?

[–] AlligatorBlizzard@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Yup. They're manufactured by Hershey's in the US, and Hershey's is notorious for using butyric acid in the production of its chocolate, which, yeah, is one of the compounds found in puke. If you grow up eating Hershey's chocolate you don't really notice it though.

[–] GalacticGrapefruit@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

No, not really. We do have a handful of smaller local candymakers that try to make their own versions of chocolate wafers that are way better, though. But they're very rare.

nestle has the blood of a million babies in it's ingredients. Fuck nestle.

Is the US, KitKat is made by Hershey, so not sure if the Nestle version sold in Europe is any better. The US version just tastes like “number going up”. That’s the best description for how a lot of American food tastes.

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (2 children)

No time like the present to take a swipe at a “lot of American food” eh?

No, a “lot” of our food doesn’t taste like barf. Just cheap chocolate, of which we do have far too much.

All the food containing butyric acid tastes like barf.

If they calm down at some point I want to go over and find out for myself. Im subjected to a lot of product placement thanks to American TV and Hollywood being so prevalent, but every time I find that product here in the UK it tastes like shit.

I don't know if the recipes have changed to work around differing regulations, or if it really does suck and US standards are just lower, or if only that stuff sucks thanks to decades of enshittification and theyre coasting on brand recognition or some 5th or 9th thing I cant be bothered typing.

If they do it multiple times it will be cereal and if they get caught there will be bars.

Another article I read earlier (I'll have to find the link) said Poland, and something about a missing shipment.

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 2 points 1 month ago

That sounds more sensible.

[–] GalacticGrapefruit@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Fuck yeah, fuck Nestle, free chocolate!

The Big Break (2026)

[–] Cevilia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

sigh At least steal better chocolate.

[–] whyNotSquirrel@sh.itjust.works 18 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I don't think there's better company to steal from than nestle

[–] Cevilia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 month ago

Fair point, well presented

[–] greyscale@lemmy.grey.ooo 3 points 1 month ago

A cookie does taste better when its stolen.
