Al Roker's Sweet Potato Poon

Nestlé makes Crunch Bar, except in America, where the Ferrara Candy Company makes it.

Nestlé makes Kit Kat, except in America, where the Hershey Company makes it.

Rowntree's created Kit Kat and licensed its production in America to the Hershey Company.

When Nestlé acquired Rowntree's, it had to honor the Hershey Company's Kit Kat license.

So long as the Hershey Company is not sold, Nestlé cannot make Kit Kat in America.

Kit Kat is Nestlé's best-selling confectionery product globally, so of course it wants the Hershey Company to sell.

But whoever acquires the Hershey Company will not acquire Kit Kat, one of the Hershey Company's best-selling products, with it.

No Kit Kat decreases the Hershey Company's valuation.

As such, the Hershey Company is not incentivized to sell.

Nestlé should cut a 'Marvel Studios Sony Pictures Spider-Man' deal with the Hershey Company to make better Kit Kat in America.

Wikipedia » The Hershey Company » Perception outside the U.S. »

The presence of butyric acid in Hershey's chocolate, due to the use of controlled lipolysis in the production process, results in a flavor unfamiliar to those accustomed to chocolate from other parts of the world.

In the UK, this has often been compared to the smell and taste of vomit.
