Hershey's Complaint - Worms Found in Hershey's Chocolate - Cadbury's Fruit & Nut

Cadbury's Fruit & Nut - Complaint
Review by vinesh on 2007-01-15
COLUMBUS, OHIO -- I had bought a Cadbury's Fruit & Nut chocolate and was shocked to see live worms in the chocolate. One of my friends had accidently consumed it after which we saw the worms in the chocolate and fell sick from the stomach. I had never expected such product quality and would never buy and also discourage the sale of any hersheys products.

Why don't I believe your story? Pictures please? Why aren't you in your attorney's office instead of griping about it on here?

How come your "friend" didn't see the worms in his/her candy bar before eating it?? I think this person is just posting baloney.

I believe the poster..I had a box of "Goobers" and when I got to the last few in the box, I seen a bunch of tiny worms inside the box along the seam...yes, they were alive and enjoying the same snake I was eating! It isn't always the candy company's fault, you have to be careful when eating any kind of chocolate bar that has peanuts or peanut butter in it because, they can get worms. Being that the store I bought mine from was right next door to were I was working, I took the box of worms back and showed them...they gave me my money back and they cleared the rest of them off the shelf. This was in the hot summer months...you don't know how long they are stored in warehouses or sitting in trucks...I'm sure they were fresh when they left the candy factory. And YES, it did make me sick, but not from the extra protein, but just from the thought of the worms ... yuck!

Needless to say (but I'll say it anyway)... since then, I never eat candy in a dark movie theater...

first of all it was not a 5 feet snake its was a small worm and it was inside the chocolate not on its surface
and noone can even dream that there will be a worm inside the chocolate that they are eating.... for those who need a picture here is the link

Notice the white thing on the chocolate.

Worms be great protein, and, they won't hurt you.

Actually, worms in the nuts are quite common if the product is too old. I used to work for a cinema and we periodically had worms in some of our peanut products. Sad, but true.

I couldn't see anything in the pictures. There was a snake in there?

I seen it...it wasn't five feet but it is still there and disgusting enough to make someone sick if they were eating it.

I believe you beyond a doubt because the same thing happened to me. I have also posted a complaint on here and am taking appropriate action as I do have proof. (not just photos but the real thing along with receipts etc.)
