Why mess around with paying peanuts to Mexicans when legions of slave labor is available in China? And think of all the money that can be saved by mixing melamine in the milk chocolate and glue in the mint filling.

Yummy!

Either way no more York peppermint patties or other Hershey products for me.

There was a joke about salo in chocolate ("Ukrainian snickers" ) I never thought someone actually will do that

What happens to this shiny new plant if Mexico falls apart? Will the plant be safe? Will it be torn apart by riots or burned to the ground? Will they have to pay bribes down the road?
