Hershey Hunt

Chocolate Syrup is one of the things I have trouble finding in the grocery store.

There just doesn't seem to be a logical place for it.

I was at Ralph's today looking for some of that Hershey's good stuff, but the only stuff I could find was the gigantic bottle near the ice cream that would top enough sundaes for a busload of 6-year-olds.

If you're wondering what a semi-healthy girl like me is doing looking for Chocolate Syrup instead of mini dark chocolate bars or fruit or some other "more healthy" option, here's why. Studies have shown that chocolate milk works just as well as more-expensive high-tech sports drinks.

I went to the aisle where the peanut butter was. I went up and down the ice cream aisle.

Something tells me chocolate syrup is next to the marshmallows, which is next to the jell-o, which is in the baking aisle.

I'll test my theory the next time I go grocery shopping.

My theory is semi-sound - the chocolate syrup is located in the same aisle as hot chocolate mixes and coffee.

Which in the Ralph's I shop in happens to be the same aisle as the marshmallows, jell-o and baking chocolate.
