Want a Kiss?????
Not a real kiss!  A Hershey Kiss!  And you're going to learn all about this tasty bite size chocolate treat.  They were introduced in 1907[what a great time].  I would like to tell you how they got their unique name but unfourtunately nobody really knows.  There is a rumor that says they got there name from the sound the machine makes when they are being dispensed. Sadly because of the rationing of silver foil during and after WWII, Kisses weren't made from 1942-1949.  Thankfully after this tragic event in 1962 Hershey made their Kisss's foil in red, green, and silver. In 1968 pastel blue, pink, and green. In 1993 Hershey Hugs chocolate was created. In 2004 Kisses were made with caramel [ my personal favorite ]!   FUN FACT: Did you know that in Hershey, PA the street lamps are shaped like Hershey Kisses?! What a great way to honor such a great chocolate treat that we all crave!!
