Of note KitKats made in the US are made by Hershey, not Nestle. As I understand it’s a legacy licencing deal and Nestle makes no money if you buy a US KitKat.
That being said Hershey’s chocolate is what it is. American’s are used to it, but it’s not great.
Maybe that explains why the fancy Japanese KitKat flavors never live up to my imagination, despite Asian snacks and candy being generally superior (to my tastes) to similar western items.
Oh well, now I have a good reason to not bother trying them any more.

Fuck yeah, heavy metal! \m/
the child labor give the chocolate soul
Excellent. I was thinking, I don’t know of any Hershey’s issues, but I’m confident someone else will.
I’m sure there are more, but it’s not as obvious. I had to dig a little for these.
Yes but Nestlé KitKats are commonly imported and sold in the US too, especially in Asian grocery stores. I see them everywhere.
