It's the bad publicity. She said someone on their "ethics hotline" hung up on her when she tried to report it. Half the reasons these hotlines exist is to prevent lawsuits so you better believe those folks are trained up on what Walmart considers an issue.

You can't truly believe rich people are just inherently better at not dying of heart disease or cancer.

It's such a a ridiculously niche joke and it's soooo good.

For real, I thought he was going to name something of actual consequence even if it wasn't true like, "it makes your head explode." But, "it wanes"??? Uh ok, it wanes so some people might get measles anyway. Isn't that just problem solved then since you think infection is good? Completely nonsensical.

Don't worry, surely any of those negative repercussions will be neatly contained within their city limits.

No, it's because there's some biproduct to how they process the chocolate that I think tastes bad to people who didn't grow up eating it. As an American, I think I can taste the slightly sour note in Hershey's that I don't taste in other chocolates but my brain has had enough exposure to it that it doesn't taste vomit-y so I don't mind it (lol.) Don't get me wrong, it's not good quality by any means but to me it's like the difference getting a burger from McDonald's vs at a nice restaurant. Not often, but there's time and place where getting McDonald's fucking hits.

Eeeeh. I can't be the only one who won't touch something described as "pro-America" with a ten foot pole.
