I sat on my front porch, licking a red popsicle that was melting faster than I could eat it.

“Still not here yet?” my mom asked, poking her head out from the air-conditioned house.

“Not yet,” I answered, lowering my eyes. “I’ve been waiting for a million years.”

As if on cue, the mail carrier, Mr. Pearson, rounded the corner and climbed the steps of the porch. “Waiting for something?” he asked, sounding out of breath. Beads of sweat trickled down his red face, but he flashed me a friendly smile as he handed me an envelope with my name on it.

“Thank you! Finally!” I exclaimed. I offered Mr. Pearson a bottle of water, which he gratefully accepted as he tipped his hat and headed on his way.

The Hershey Company, better known as Hershey’s, is one of the largest chocolate manufacturers in the world. Its headquarters are in Hershey, Pennsylvania, known as “The Sweetest Place on Earth”. The company was founded by Milton S. Hershey in 1894 when he decided to focus his love of candy-making on milk chocolate. Over the years, Hershey’s built Hershey Park, a large family-friendly amusement park, and Hershey’s Chocolate World, which gives visitors a first-hand look at how chocolate is made. Today, Hershey’s most famous contributions to the world of sweets include Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, Hershey’s Kisses, Twizzlers, and of course, Hershey’s Chocolate Bar.
