Kisses


Mass Pike was an icy mess and the Appalachians of Pennsylvania completed covered in fog, but we descended upon Hershey, PA and decided to do a little Christmas shopping. 
Time for a bit of reader interaction ... how many Hershey's Kisses do you believe are made each day at the factory?  Write your guess down ... answer at the end of this post.
Mr. Hershey actually created an amazing thing after failing at several other attempts in the candy business.  He ultimately built a company town for his employees which has since become a destination resort as well as manufacturing facility, complete with an amusement park and gift shop!  Cows are an important part of the the Hershey milk chocolate story!


Write your Kisses guess down yet?


Here's a hint ...


Did have the best philly cheesesteak of the trip at the Parkside Bar & Grille (next to the amusement park) before we took a nearly three-hour break from the rainy weather to see The Hobbit.  I know Tolkien fans are all googly over it, but we found it long, somewhat slow and overdone with CGI.  There it is, your from-the-road movie critique.

Answer:  all varieties of Kisses on any given day ... over 60,000,000!!!
