Hershey Warns Halloween Could Be More Trick Than Treat This Year

To every trick-or-treaters delight, you may have to resort to giving out full-size candy bars this Halloween. Hershey has warned that it won't be able to meet consumer demand for Halloween-themed candy this year. It's because of a number of factors, including the difficult decision to prioritize everyday candy to meet higher demand, which means that they're making less for the holidays, according to Hershey CEO Michele Buck. Add in supply chain issues and higher dairy prices related to the war in Ukraine, and you've got a scary recipe for Halloween disappointment.
