2. The final famous kiss is the bite-sized, teardrop-shaped chocolate Hershey Kiss, produced since 1907. The little plume that sticks out of the wrapping was added in 1921, to distinguish Hershey Kisses from their competition. Hershey Kisses have been wrapped in silver aluminum foil until 1962, when colors were introduced. Varieties have included milk chocolate, caramel, Special Dark, almond, white, strawberry creme, and dozens more. To celebrate the 100th anniversary of the sweet treat, Hershey made a kiss weighing over 15 tons. I had my last Hershey Kiss in a Christmas cookie. How long has it been since you have eaten a Hershey Kiss?
