        “Mondelez International (formerly Kraft Foods) acquired British multinational confectionery company Cadbury and Schweppes in 2010, and Mondelez International has since fully owned the company.”

        That’s a quote from the article you posted, homie. It’s also on the Wikipedia page for Cadbury, but I’m guessing you were only trying to find the one random AI written article with a headline that matched your for-some-reason-very-important headcannon about who makes shitty rehydrated chocolate.

        Unfortunately for Hershey, they only have license to use the Cadbury brand name in the USA and for specific products only. In fact, Cadbury Creme Eggs sold in the USA are made in Canada by Mondelez, who actually owns Cadbury. Second in fact, if you read past the headline of the AI written article you supplied you’ll also find that Mondelez owns Cadbury. Then Hershey, then Cadbury, then Mondelez, but holy shit I don’t think you could have picked a worse article to try and prove you are right in an internet argument. I’m not even sure AI wrote this shit.
