I went on the tour of Hershey’s chocolate as a child back in the early 1970’s when it was an actual factory tour. The theme park wasn’t yet built, and the tour was pretty much all there was in Hershey, PA. I’ll never forget those smells as long as I live. That tour bore no resemblence to the fake factory tour they give today.

I use to go to the Hershey Park in 1944 when visting my aunt and uncle — he was stationed at Indiantown Gap and they lived in Hershey. That was the first place I ever saw a water slide. And the chocolate river running through the park was amazing.
