    I heard today on the news, perhaps Lou Dobbs Tonight, that middle class Americans, for the most part, are just going to have to adjust to lower standards of living. The wave just keeps getting bigger...we've got to stay afloat!

    IT IS NOT SAFE TO EAT HERSHEYS CHOCOLATE ANYMORE ANYWAY. OTHER BRANDS ARE SCHARFFEN BERGER OR GHIRARDELLI. BOTH MADE IN THE USA. HERE IS AN ARTICLE FROM A YEAR AGO ABOUT INFECTED HERSHEYS CHOCOLATE.

    Salmonella Fears Prompt Hershey Recall
    Sunday, November 12, 2006


    MISSISSAUGA, Ontario — A variety of Hershey chocolate products and candies in Canada were voluntarily recalled Sunday because of fears of salmonella contamination at a factory.
    There have been no reported illnesses associated with the products, Hershey said in a statement.
    Hershey brand chocolate bars, chocolate chips, Oh Henry! bars, Reese's peanut butter cups, and Cherry Blossom sweets were among the affected products.
    None of the recalled products were produced for Halloween or Christmas.
    Canadian Food Inspection Agency officials said they were told by Hershey that it doesn't appear there was a widespread delivery of the affected products to stores.
    It was unclear where in Canada the affected products may have ended up and it was not immediately known how long that will take to find out, said Marie-Andree Lefebvre, a CFIA spokeswoman. The recall did not affect Hershey products sold in the United States, the CFIA said.
    The recall involves chocolate produced at the Smiths Falls, Ontario, factory between Oct. 15 and Nov. 10, Lefebvre said.
    The recalled chocolate and candy can be identified by date codes found on the back of each package _ the affected date codes range from 6417 to 6455.
    Consumers should check codes on chocolate bars they purchase as not every product on store shelves are affected.
    "For example it's not all the Oh Henry! bars that are affected by this recall,"Lefebvre said.
    Hershey officials did not immediately return telephone calls Sunday.
    Production at the plant in Smiths Falls was shut down last week, and the company did not say when it will resume.
    The Hershey Co., based in Hershey, Pa., is the largest candy maker in the U.S.
    Salmonella generally cause a nonfatal, diarrhea-causing illness. Other symptoms can include nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramps, fever and headache. There are about 2,500 types of salmonella.

    I don't think the elites in our government and corporations really give a rat's _ss if the entire middle class of America is reduced to low class! Just wait until they feel the full loss of its collective 'buying power' for their stinky, cheap, Mexican and Chinese products! What goes around comes around. They'll get theirs in the end! It's already starting with the continuing decline in the value of the American dollar all over the world. They're idiots and have no moral conscience!

    I remember that they closed the plant in PA. What I want to know is why the state keeps advertising Hershey PA like the candy factory is stil there.

    BECAUSE THAT IS WHERE THEIR HEADQUARTERS IS. THAT IS WHERE THE CORPORATE OFFICES ARE. BUT THE PLANTS THAT ACTUALLY MAKE THE CHOCOLATE ARE ALL OVER THE WORLD. BUT STILL THEY SAY THEY ARE LOCATED IN PA. BECAUSE THAT IS WHERE THE TOP DOGS ARE.
