Who can take a sunrise, Sprinkle it with dew? Cover it in chocolate and a miracle or two… The candyman, the candyman can.
Hershey's Kisses brand chocolates, a little product with a big future, were first introduced in 1907. While it's not known exactly how KISSES got their name, it is a popular theory that the candy was named for the sound or motion of the chocolate being deposited during the manufacturing process The Hershey Co. said Friday it is considering changes to the design of a mint that Philadelphia police say looks nearly identical to a tiny heat-sealed bag used to sell powdered street drugs.
The revelation by the nation’s largest candy maker came a week after the criticism surfaced about Ice Breakers Pacs, although a Hershey spokesman would not specify the exact concerns that prompted the company to act.
“It was certainly never our intention to create any confusion with this product,” company spokesman Kirk Saville said Friday. “We take consumer and community feedback very seriously and are acting quickly to address concerns.”
The firm said Friday the mints were never intended to resemble anything — but the similarity was so striking that longtime veterans of Philadelphia’s police narcotics squad were fooled when they saw the mints.
Philadelphia police Chief Inspector William Blackburn last week said the mints glorify the drug trade. And he warned that the resemblance could have consequences if, for example, a child familiar with the mints swallows a heat-sealed bag of cocaine.

They combined the native prescriptions and ingredients with those brought to Mexico by the Spaniards. There are entire streets dedicated to “dulces” in Puebla. They are amazing, colorful and fun places to shop.The camote is a candy made of sweet potato and fruit flavoring and is commonly known as the signature goodie in Puebla. In fact, Poblano men are referred to as “camotes”.
