Hershey's Mini Assortment Hierarchy

1. Mr. Goodbar - is there any mini-chocolate more divine? The bright yellow wrapper is eyecatching as well. These go first.

2. Krackel - Pretty damn good. Again, the bright red wrapper makes it a fast sell.

3. Milk Chocolate - meh, it's aight. It's your basic standard ok chocolate.

4. Special Dark - pshh! The 'healthy' chocolate, seemingly marketed to the elderly. Look in the bottom of a mostly-empty assortment bowl for these guys, and then go find something else.

OI! I take issue, and umbrage, and offense! By all that's right and godly, it's Krackel, Special Dark, Milk, Mr. Goodbar. The SDs are for the wicked, that's why they're so good!

I personally would put Krackle above Mr. Goodbar, but not by very much. Do they even make full-sized Mr. Goodbars anymore? Or Krackle for that matter?

Special Darks are called "Special" for a reason...

wrong! all of you!
it's special dark (which is just a pale imitation of REAL dark chocolate, but if it's all you got...), then Krackel, then Mr. Goodbar, THEN milk chocolate -- if you even bother to eat the milk chocolate. blech!

Anecdotal data (viz and to wit, looking in the candy jar at our annual meeting in December) showed that the Krackles and Mr. G's disappeared first, then the special darks (which have their devotees, but not so many as for the chocolate with stuff in it), and, in a lonely abandoned pile, the milk chocolates. Mm, Special Daaaaarks. As AC sez, it ain't the real dark, but it's as close as we got.

Hmm. I thought everyone would agree with me as to the order. Obviously, I was wrong. Very very wrong. (Altho' anecdotal data agrees with me.)

has anyone analyzed the ratio of MG:SD:Kr:MC? this would have bearing on the conclusions drawn from anecdotal data.
... i might need to utilize a spreadsheet for all this...
