Americans are waking up these mornings to find that they are unable to buy Cadbury chocolate that is actually made in the United Kingdom. The outcome of a lawsuit has given Hershey, the Cadbury name-holder in the U.S., authority to tell importers to stop bringing in Cadbury-labelled goods. The unexpected prohibition has raised questions — if not alarm — in Canada as well, where many people say they can tell the difference between Hershey-made Cadbury and the real thing made in Blighty. For those who want British-made Cadbury there is Uncle John’s Candy Shack at 635 Mt. Pleasant Road. Dina Vander Beek, wife of Uncle John himself, was telling the South Bayview Bulldog she has the real thing. The English Cadbury chocolate is produced under a different recipe (the first ingredient in U.K. Cadbury chocolate is milk, while the first in American-made Cadbury chocolate is sugar, according to the New York Times).
