If you're like me, you have your favorites in that bag of Hershey's Miniatures and those favorites may or may not be plucked out of the bag first.
For me, the Miniatures bags are all about the Krackel. I used to love Krackel bars, and then...they were discontinued. For the past few years, the only way to get my Krackel fix was in the traditional Miniatures bags.
But this week, I found a shelf full of interesting bags at Hershey's Chocolate World: 12 oz, and filled with Krackel Miniatures. Yay!
There are two miniature pieces of bad news, however: the 12 oz. bags o' Krackel are priced at $4.95; and those little Krackel bars are made in Mexico.
Also found in a pricy 12-oz. bag this week: milk chocolate Hershey-Ets. Now that Kissables have been discontinued, Hershey-Ets are the only way to get your Hershey's milk chocolate in lentil form. (The Hershey Company will be introducing a line of "Hershey's Pieces," nicely reviewed by Cybele's Candy Blog, but to date no plans have been announced for a milk chocolate "Pieces" offering.)
Now we finally know the ingredients for the new-formula Krackel!
