I was eating some chocolate when I imagined a world where Hershey’s was widely accepted, even by elitists, as the best chocolate.

Is consumer elitism just a facade for pretentious contrarians? Or are there things where even most snobs agree with the masses?

Also, I mean that the product is intrinsically considered to be the best option. I’m not considering social products where the user network makes the experience.

Edit: I was not eating Hershey’s. Hershey’s being the best chocolate is a bizarro universe in this hypothetical.

    Food staples. I know cans are old technology, but they fucking work. They’ll last at least as long as they’ve been around, and depending on the item come surprisingly close in quality to the fresh or homemade item. Dried beans and pasta are also a great deal.
