A news release describes the £2 ($2.90) item now in Asda supermarkets as a “delicious chocolate and caramel spread with crunchy biscuit pieces” that can be “spread over warm toast or a crumpet, dunked with a breadstick, or topped on a cake or waffle.” In recent years, Hershey’s has also released a line of spreads inspired by its chocolate bars and Reese’s peanut butter cups.
