As a European, I'd read about this phenomenon and assumed it was just a sort of vaguely reminiscent hint of a taste. Because surely nobody would be eating it if it tasted strongly of vomit.
Was given a free sample of Hershey's in Chicago once. Didn't taste of anything at all it was just weird and waxy. So much for that!
Yeah I made it maybe halfway down the street before the taste kicked in. For any other non-US folks who think it's an exaggeration, it is not. Literally tasted like I'd thrown up in my mouth, not just a bit like it but literally like vomit.
My minor life advice is do not accept handouts of Hershey's chocolate!
