Get bent, Rolos are lovely.

She is, and I am being very frank on this one, a bit of a strange person.

I have reason to believe she hates them because they are brown.

Ah, that's unsurprising. Becky has been cackling with glee every time police killing a black man has made the news.

If I eat Rolos®™© without unwrapping them, can I sue them for $100,000 a day for dental and/or intestinal damage from eating the aluminum foil the candies are wrapped in?

Yes! Though you may want to underline your point by walking into the Rolo offices with a minigun. Maybe have a few executives shot outside of their homes by people that they do not know (and neither do you).

I tried the latter, I put some flyers around town that said "Wanted: a man who doesn't know me (or a few Rolos™®© executives) to shoot said executives outside of their domiciles. I can't tell you who I am, obviously cause then you would know me but I'll just know if you're someone I don't know. Reward: a bag of Rolos™©®"
I got no responses :/

No wonder you nobody replied. What you needed to do was angrily yell your demands in public, being sure to be as abisive towards the people you are asking to help you as possible. At one point, perhaps start referring to yourself as a sergeant for no discernible reason. That'd win people over for sure.

I would not be so arrogant- but I will flood this topic with pictures of my Rolos, once I have them.

Caramello? I've had them and they're nice, but Rolos are a lot cheaper which, as an American, I value.

Rolos in USA is NO WHERE as good as Rolos in UK or France or anywhere they are stocked in Eu and North Africa/Australia.
Quality of Chocolate outside the USA and texture of the caramel is wayyyy different in Eu which is just soooo much more better then company that makes Rolos for USA.

There might actually be something to that one. I think I recall hearing that chocolate is different in the US compared to the UK.

> You're just making that up.
Want to make a quick $50? I win you pay me $5 You win you get $50 and its a bet on the honor system - You buy a Rolo locally and get Killer Lettuce to buy one and mail it to you and I will pay the shipping plus some added amount for his trouble - You get a friend to cut a section from each and place on plate side by side - Only they will know which is which. But you are going to see a difference and because you do not care for the product or might not like the UK version either - Yet you will see a difference in color of chocolate and Caramel and you might even enjoy the UK version
Bet is that They look different and taste different I just looked it up and it surprised me - The USA version is made by a major competitor of the company that makes them for the rest of Planet Earth.
I like M&M's but never keep them nor any commercial candy around Other then a variety of Coffee candy items that have punch Currently do have wayyyy to much Trader Joes Cherries in Chocolate with brandy and one other TJ Brandy filled Chocolate confection by the box's - Most will go stale or be given away - I like the USA Rolo's that you do not care for but me? Years between tasting one
Given I have paid a great deal of money over the years to fyne tune my taste buds on fyne wines with lots of expensive classes and travel AND Inventory - On occasion I do take cooking classes as with Chinese at UCLA Extension for almost a decade. So when I travel and bite in2 something and its very different from what I am used to - I take note - For all we no you will like UK Rolo's or dislike the UK version - BUT betting if you like good Chocolate? You will find the UK version more better

> US dairy milk chocolate doesn't contain any dairy
The Lawn disagrees with you
United States
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates the naming and ingredients of cocoa products:
Product Chocolate Liquor Milk Solids Sugar Cocoa Fat Milk Fat
Milk Chocolate ≥ 10% ≥ 12% < 12%
Eu lawn
Milk Chocolate ≥ 25% ≥ 25%
And until I just looked this UP - It may explain Y a product with the same name my end up being very different in Eu vs USA - Call it Milk Chocolate which may be a label ingred in say Rolo and in USA it can be made cheaper given it has less Chocolate and Milk
Adding that one wood be very shocked to taste any Chocolate product from Mexico as sold there - Typical to have Cinnamon as a major added spice and can take getting used to

Oh, I don't think Hershey's is particularly good. Cadbury's is much better. I just think it would be weird if they made one kind of Rolos for the US and one for you folks.

Perhaps my explain was tl;dr for you or was it my Inglish.
Its a Law thing. US version can be made cheaper then Eu version NO Matter where its made.
What is weird about this is: Eu version is made by the originators of the product and the US cheaper lower quality version (Less of the two key ingredients) is manufactured under license by Eu company to the prime USA competitor of Eu company. Helping a competitor is the unique part of it. Eu cannot legally make Rolos the way USA does - again a Law thing

@previous (Green)Yes I have clones. That said I am the first of many nor will I be the last. Waves today were terrific and tomorrow will be legend in size n scope.
Anyway very limited time cause after a couple days of playing with my Ocean a Blue and pissing off my GF's who are packed and ready to hit the Ski slopes for our planned December Ski vacation - I need to go down to kitchen and see what treats they have planned for dinner at 8
Few in USA eat dinner that late but guests are arriving from Arizona and Colorado so as to join us and camp out here and take over our house while we take off for downhill ski trip
So out of here in a few minutes - You take care n good to see you back here.
