Candy Hunting - New Summer Products, Part 5

Malteser

Malteser Malted Milk Balls are Hershey's new, second brand of malted milk balls which have been sold on their website for a few months and are now just appearing in stores. Naturally, it seems a bit odd for Hershey's to introduce another malted milk ball since Whoppers are already popular. But wait, there's more! Mars started selling Maltesers, which are malted milk balls, in 1937 and are now sold in a number of countries outside of the US. Hershey's introduced a product with the same name, color, and composition as a Mars product 77 years later... Obviously, Mars is now suing Hershey's. I do not expect Hershey's Malteser Malted Milk Balls to be around for long.
