Godiva is closing or selling all of its stores in the United States

[JI7]

Because they are mostly located inside malls . Maybe they should try opening up some outside malls.

1. I never liked their chocolates

But I'm sad that they will not be available for folks who do like them. Plus more jobs lost.

4. The chocolates will still be available in other stores and online orders

they are just getting rid of the Godiva stores which are mostly in malls in the US .

6. My wife loves their chocolate hearts filled with ganache

But we get those at Costco, so as long as they stay in business and just close the stores we'll be alright.

10. I seem to recall it tasted way better in Europe

Than here. Not sure if that's still the case.

9. I posted on the other thread about Godiva.

They sold out. They went for profit over quality by reducing the chocolate content and adding more oil. Which Hershey lobbied for and won. It’s not the same and tastes like crap. Hershey caused this. See my response on the other thread.

11. I am brokenhearted. I swear.

I've had better chocolate that was less expensive. Plus the whole shop till you drop thing of malls never appealed to me. I did like using them as a walking track in the winter though.
