@s20_7418: American shows that Hersheys Chocolate Bars have changed textures “Guys, I don't think chocolate's supposed to look like this. Why is it so like elasticy? — It's like slime — this is fake” Hersheys has made major changes to their formula, including changing replacing cocoa butter with cheaper vegetable oils like palm oil, shea oil and sunflower oil

It’s not fake it’s just rubbery from warm tempatures

Chuck In The 📦 :

In early 2026, The Hershey Company faced intense backlash, led by founder H.B. Reese's grandson, Brad Reese, for allegedly replacing real milk chocolate with cheaper vegetable oil-based compounds and altering peanut butter in some products. Following viral criticism and quality concerns, Hershey announced it will return to original, "classic" recipes for all Reese's products by 2027.

It’s like that bc it melted yes, but that doesn’t change the fact they don’t even use real cocoa in their products.

redstar_productionsreal :

In chocolate, you've got all these bonds that are formed by the cocoa butter. If you have enough of them, they hold the structure of the chocolate together. Think of it as like a web, okay? So the cocoa butter crystals form a web and the other ingredients are kind of floating inside that web. Other ingredients being like the milk powder, the sugar, etc. When you heat it to a certain temperature, the web gets unstable, but not so unstable that it melts. It's just unstable enough to where on a molecular level things get wonky. Then what we do is we cool it back down again to room temperature. You don't know this happened, but it raised up enough to break those bonds and it cooled again. Bonds don't just magically reform. That's called tempering. Right? There's a whole procedure for getting the crystals to grow correctly. When you take it up to temperature like that and you drop back down again, that crystal structure is gone. So what you're left with is sort of a semi-plastic state.

Mabye because u melted it

✰༻༒♫Ash♫༒༻✶✰ :

I know why... It's because The new Hershey chocolate bars now are filled with more oil and like idk some more ingredients there's barely any chocolate in the bars now so it's bendy bc of the oils in it. back then they didn't have that much oil but now they do! which is bad.
