We also had US Hershey bar available to taste - the world's only vomit

 Do not remember having tried that...

You would if you had. I try it again about once a decade to see if it is really as bad as I remember it. Some things like durian fruit and natto smell terrible but taste delicious (at least if you like strong tastes like very blue cheese). Hershey bars smell bad and taste even worse.
It used to be only available on US airbases in the UK until recently. Now one of the supermarkets, Morrisons has it on the shelves. Doesn't really sell to anyone apart from to homesick US expats.
