Since they don't do the sarsparailla suckers anymore (that I've seen over the last year of looking) there's no reason to go in anymore.
But then, since I don't bitter stuff (this feeds into the coffee hating too) I'm a heretic in not really caring one way or the other about chocolate and when I do I prefer milk chocolate over dark chocolate.

It probably because it was tied to all our family special occasions when I was a kid. Christmas, birthdays etc.. Objectively, yeah it's probably not that different than some other brands but emotionally there ain't nothing that comes close. A whole box of Milk Molasses Chips all to myself was just about the best part of Christmas for me. Plus I'm sure living out on the bitter east coast where I can't get it plays it's part also.
