// August 19th, 2008 // No Comments » // Candy News

Have you seen the news?! Well, Hersey has announced that they will be increasing the price of candy by over 11%. That is a BIG increase and of course due to the economy they had no choice and many more will follow unfortunately. In which case, it would be almost everytime smarter to buy bulk candy of your favorite types to save a little money!

In addition to the classic Hershey’s chocolate bar, Hershey makes Kisses, Reese’s Cups, Whoppers, Mounds and Almond Joy, Rolo, York Peppermint Pattie, Mr. Goodbar, Payday, Kit Kat, Heath, 5th Avenue, and some Cadbury products.

// July 26th, 2008 // No Comments » // Candy News

The time has come, Jelly Belly‘s are bigger than ever as the demand for Jelly Belly overseas is growing. The company has planned to open a new candy plant in Rayong, Thailand! Currently, there are over 43 overseas countries who are in love with the small jelly beans!

It’s exciting because I’ve lived overseas for almost 10 years and many times I just miss a lot of US candies. I’m happy to see it expand and the Jelly Belly Corp has grown 25% due to more exportation throughout the world. So the next time you’re on vacation abroad, you are likely to see them at checkout!

During an interview at the sheriff’s office, Neal reportedly said he had gotten the bill about an hour earlier at Baskin-Robbins from a man, known only by a nickname, that owed him the money.

I don’t know if its true but its WEIRD. Read more about the news here
