FIGHT ON! Mike It turns out Cadbury, though located in England, is wholly owned by a multinational American company Mondelēz International, which was originally called Kraft Foods, since 2010: From Wikipedia: "Kraft Foods Group and Douwe Egberts "In August 2011 Kraft Foods announced plans to split into two publicly traded companies, one snack-food and the other grocery.[44] The company changed its name to Mondelez International, specializing in snack foods, in October 2012 and a second company (Kraft Foods Group, specializing in grocery items) was split off.[45] Kraft Foods Group later merged with Heinz to become Kraft Heinz. In 2014, the company announced a merge of its coffee business with the Dutch firm Douwe Egberts;[46] the company would be named Jacobs Douwe Egberts. This actually happened on July 6, 2015.[47]" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mondelez_International#Origins __________________ "It's a free country; you can say whatever you want." --Old American Saying (U.S. Postal Service stamp-- from 1977 Americana series which extols freedom of speech and features a Speaker's Stand decorated with an American Flag shield.)
