\"Hershey<\/p>\n

What is Hershey\u2019s White with Whole Almonds?<\/h3>\n

Let\u2019s start with what it\u2019s not -\u2014 white chocolate.<\/p>\n

That caught me off guard a little, especially with this being from Hershey\u2019s, but this candy bar contains no chocolate at all and instead is white creme with whole almonds. <\/p>\n

How is it?<\/h3>\n

\"Hershey<\/p>\n

It\u2019s just OK. Maybe my expectations were too high because this product kind of gives off the aura of being a high-end candy bar, but I wasn\u2019t impressed. The white creme reminded me of hardened cupcake frosting, and I\u2019m not talking the decadent type like you get at those fancy $5-a-cupcake places. I\u2019m talking overly sweet frosting on a cupcake you get a superstore that rhymes with Malwart. As for the almonds, they were fine and whole, as promised. They were also lined up nicely down the center of the bar. <\/p>\n

\"Hershey<\/p>\n

Is there anything else you need to know?<\/h3>\n

No, you don\u2019t need to know the following information, but I\u2019m going to give it to you anyway. I spent nearly two minutes researching what creme was, and I learned it could be a sweet liqueur or a type of cream. <\/p>\n

But, of course, I got distracted during my extensive inquisition and focused on the accent in cr\u00e8me, and more specifically, why the Hershey\u2019s wrapper didn\u2019t have said accent. I found no answer to that question, and I didn\u2019t really care that much to begin with, so I gave up. <\/p>\n

But I learned that the particular accent mark in cr\u00e8me is called a grave accent. That sent me down a rabbit hole of punctuation names that are just fun to say and even sound a little dirty, like rough breathing (look it up, I\u2019m not lying), retroflex hook, inverted breve, and perispomene. So have fun with those. <\/p>\n

Conclusion:<\/h3>\n

\"Hershey<\/p>\n

This is certainly worth a try if you like almonds; it is a candy bar after all, and it will definitely hit the spot if you have a hankering for something sweet. But if you are looking for an indulgent treat that will give you the weird, pleasure-filled expression you see on commercials when people are trying some fancy candy, then this one misses the mark. <\/p>\n
