I thought this thread was a revamp of the call for a boycott of Hershey two years ago because of their closing of the Oakdale, CA factory and the move to Mexico. But now I notice it's in the humor/jokes section and not politics :) http://www.truthorfiction.com/rumors/h/hershey.htm
The Truth: There is a significant move by Hershey from the United States to Mexico in what the company calls a "global supply-chain transformation." Not all the operations are making the move but according to a June, 2007 article in the Los Angeles Times about 3,000 of the company's 13,000 employees will be cut.
About 900 workers are to lose their jobs in the company's home town of Hershey, Pennsylvania and the Hershey plant in Oakdale, California, is closing down. Operations there are being moved to Monterrey, Mexico.
The times quotes Hershey CEO Richard Lenny as saying that labor costs in Mexico are 10 percent less than in the U.S. and that by 2010 the changes will save shareholders $190 million. -

Word is that legally, only male truck drivers are permitted to eat this candy bar.

I heard there's a new chocolate bar for men that combines it with viagara.
It's called "Oh, Oh, OH! OHHHH! Henry."
