Cadburys fingers don't survive long doing that with hot tea but it's worth trying.

Lifehack: If you would like to enjoy some delicious fruit salad but have neither time nor motivation to prepare some, just bite into a banana, a pear and some grapes in quick succession and finish by gulping a bit of whipped cream from an aerosol can.

People not party to the agreement are not beholden by it. Unless Cadbury makes their distributors sign something to the effect of, "I will obey all third-party deals you make at a later date," I think the distributors can pretty much thumb their noses at Hershey. Maybe the legal questions thread would enjoy this one. I'm kind of curious, myself.

I again suggest you read the article: NYTimes.com posted:As a result of a settlement with the Hershey’s Company, Let’s Buy British Imports, or L.B.B., agreed this week to stop importing all Cadbury’s chocolate made overseas. So yeah, unless you're importing a small enough volume to fly under the radar you'll be on Hershey's legal department's poo poo list.

You can buy proper Cadbury chocolates in the U.S. at British import stores, or at many Canadian border crossings. For the record, I'm a Jelly Babies girl. Chocolate is gross.

I tried a Hershey's bar from some import candy store and it was straight up the grossest thing I've eaten. Tasted like super sweet vom and despair. How do people eat that? Good, dark chocolate is a gift from the loving gods though.

Hershey actually said gently caress it and made their chocolate with rotten milk. Since there were basically no other (cheap) choices at the time, people got used to it and eventually the other companies started to actively add butyric acid (aka the vomit enzyme) to their subpar-but-not-crappy chocolates to more closely match the taste of Hershey http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hershey_bar#Hershey.27s_milk_chocolate Sentient Data has a new favorite as of 12:41 on Mar 9, 2015 |

I understand the principle of a business taking this kind of action, but I wish it wasn't framed in such a weasel-y way. No purchaser's life is going to end if they buy the wrong candy. Just come out and say you're doing it to protect your market share and ability to sell, not the ability to help customers enjoy a thing. mamelon has a new favorite as of 16:03 on Mar 9, 2015 |

Karate Bastard posted:Lifehack: Eat chocolate to make yourself feel better. Eat all that shameful chocolate like a pig, you disgusting meat blimp. You'll feel so much better #LifeHack Ironically, this is actually true. Well, kind of. Eating just over two ounces of unsweetened baking chocolate works as an antitussant as well or better than a dose of cough syrup with codeine for about 6-8 hours. The trick is it must be unsweetened baking chocolate because anything less has drastically lowered amounts of theobromine, which is the ingredient doing all the work. So yeah, choke down some super-bitter chocolate, for your health!
