Whoppers
Whoppers are malted milk balls with an artificial flavored "chocolatey coating" produced by The Hershey Company. The candy is a small, round ball about 3⁄4 inch (20 mm) in diameter. They are typically sold in various packaging options: either in a small cardboard candy box, in a larger box that resembles a cardboard milk carton, as the 'Fun Size' variety which is a tube-shaped plastic package sealed at the sides and contains twelve Whoppers weighing 21 grams (0.74 ounces), or as an even smaller variety in a tube containing three Whoppers weighing 6.8 grams (0.24 ounces).
