At first I thought that you'd found a giant bite taken out of your Kit Kat when you opened the wrapper. Now that would have been cool.

I had THE EXACT SAME EXPERIENCE one hour ago!

Like you, I was horrified by what I saw, but ate it anyway.

Still, fuck you for making me eat gross orange wax chocolate, Kit Kat.

White chocolate dyed orange?

Is that congealed Sloppy Joe grease?

I, too, was horrified by the same sight not even an hour ago. I, too, ate the Kit Kat.

We are all unprincipled shitty-candy-eating-whores here at The Stranger.

Ewww! is it chocolate flavored, or orange flavored?

I notice it didn't stop you from, you know, actually eating it.

Kit Kats just barely ranked above Sweet Tarts and raisins on my Halloween stash hierarchy.

Threadjack:

Do we all know that Sarah Palin wants to name her next kid "Zamboni"?

Just making sure we are all clear on this.

Fnarf wins! (And Paul and Lindy and I and whoever else in the office at that nasty shit lose.)

I love that two other Stranger staffers came into the comments to both be horrified and say that they ate it anyway. It made me laugh, at least. Thanks guys!

The package shows an orange Kit Kat right on it. I would still eat it if someone gave it to me though, and I would be annoyed the entire time.

Kit Kat is not a "chocolate candy bar."

It's a chocolate-covered wafer.

Now I'm craving an orange fucking Kit-Kat. Ghaaah.

They should have had the Kit Kat dress up as a different candy bar, like a Salted Nut Roll. Well, a sexy Salted Nut Roll, since nobody can seem to get enough of that no matter how lame.

WTF? Where did all of you get this candy!? Do newspapers get free halloween kit kats so that you'll blog about it? Am I in the wrong line of work (blog commenting)?

Actually, it's the "sauce" they use for "orange" chicken.

Which, when you figure it out, is pretty much congealed axle grease, so ...

Chocolate is green, actually, so you're all dye-aholics no matter how you slice it.

Count me amongst the people who thought you opened your Kit Kat to find a giant bite taken out of it.

What I want to know is, what does Megan Seling think? I thought she was the resident Stranger candy expert...

You're a moron, Will. Chocolate is not brown because it's dyed. It's brown for the same reason coffee is: it's roasted. Seriously, dude, you are the stupidest fucking sack of piss in the universe.

When you paraphrase Mr Show in your posts, you should include a little asterisk so people who don't get the reference won't think you made it up yourself.

@20 Seriously, Fnarf... everyone knows they sell piss in bags now, not sacks.

Has Megan Seling made a ruling on this yet? I need to know what she thinks. This is not the least bit sarcastic.

Kit Kat doesn't contain any real chocolate anyway. It might as well be orange.

Even if it was a regular Kit-Kat that you buy in the U.S. it still would not taste as good as the original Kit-Kat you buy in Canada and the UK. The U.S. ones taste terrible.
The U.S. ones are made by HERSHEY which makes the worst tasting chocolate. The original Kit-Kat's I ate as a kid were made by Rowntree a UK company. It was bought out by Nestlé which now makes them using the original chocolate bar design and recipe.
No I did not need to look this up I have always known this.
Come to Canada and buy a Kit-Kat and you will notice the difference. The Hershey Kit-Kat just does not cut it.

Didn't Hershey move away from using cocoa butter in their "chocolate" to vegetable shortening or something else? I believe they can't identify it as "milk chocolate" on the packages any more, but have to refer to it as something like, "chocolaty".

I once found a dead bug in a packet of Coco.

I ended up with a bag of those too! I looked at the ingredients lists and the orange stuff isn't chocolate- isn't even WHITE chocolate with food coloring. It is chemical tasting and gross. Needless to say I was more careful the next time I shopped for candy!

That color of orange is very close to the typical shade of puke. Eeeewwww!
