Why the extra "p" in crappy?
Hadn't noticed the typo until now. Given some of the "chocolates" are really crappppppy, perhaps my spelling was an unintentional compromise.

As far as the other, some say Best Foods, some say Hellman's - though they're never in the same store.

I couldn't help but wonder if this thread related to Valentine's Day!
Thread was inspired by the Godiva thread. I recently saw a documentary about Hershey and the milk is soured. So you're eating sour, and not burnt, milk. Better chocolates apparently have flavour, not flavor.
