Is nothing sacred? Screwing with milk chocolate.

I'm glad ours is made by Hershey's here in the states. < :-)

"When in Rome do as the Romans do" this is what big makers from different countries are doing in China ! Cadbury is my favorite brand since childhood, hope they will stick to high quality standards and i will not have to bury it for the rest of my life.

Wow, and this just gets worse and worse. Sickening.

I wanna cry, I used to trust Cadbury's chocolates ; ;.

I had no idea anybody manufactured chocolate bars in China because cocoa beans overwhelmingly come from the Ivory Coast. But if it's largely for the "Greater Chinese" market maybe it makes sense.

New Cadbury melamine Bar. A synthetic treat for a materialistic generation.

Chairman Mao's policy for China was "one-child", now Chairman Hu and Premier Wen's must be "no child" policy. Tempering with food, whether it for dogs or cats, is bad enough; with baby's formula? I think it's way out of the whack.

We shouldn't just blame China and its manufacturers for what they have done. Greed and profit alone has made companies in the West to locate off-shore to get more and more profit whether in ethical work practices or not. Didn't we have a saying, "you'll reap what you sow?".

"I used to trust Cadbury's"

It's only the products made in their Beijing plant. Anyway, there's always good ol' Hershey's.

Thanks, but I'd rather get melamine poisoning.

Nessie - "Thanks but I'd rather get melamine poisoning ( than eat Hershey's chocolate )"

No, you wouldn't.

Hershey's chocolate is delicious and you know it, but, like Cleo, won't admit it.

Melamine scandals up in Cadbury. Looks like only milk based products made in australia,NZ,USA and a few other nation is safe. The probes and police need catch the crooks who have done this and lock them up,before they make more food scandals/damages.
