>Why does European Dark chocolate taste different than US dark chocolate?
I have been to Europe many times and their chocolate taste great, however all euro's hate milk chocolate so I assume all of their chocolate is dark. This being the case, Dark Chocolate in the US is bitter and not good. So whats the difference between the two?
>however all euro's hate milk chocolate Where the fuck did you get this from? We just hate your sour milk abominations.
Justin Turner
And thats only found in milk chocolate.
Dominic Moore
Something about yours having more butyric acid and HFCS, making it smell literally of rancid butter.
Hunter Evans
In your milk chocolate, not ours.
Elijah Allen
Here in Germany we love milk chocolate and I've heard it is the most consumed chocolate in Germany. (pic related) >bitter The higher the concentration of cacao the more bitter it becomes.
Jack Mitchell
Your chocolate LITERALLY has vomit in it
Kayden Campbell
It's mostly hershey's that's garbage there are lots of smaller chocolatiers that make better chocolate, but you would have to go somewhere other than Walmart and Kroger to find it. Shouldn't be surprised that most Americans won't do that though. we import these now, they're very good
Parker Cook
Weird, i always thought it was in milk chocolate in general and euros hated it.
David White
I think we are, once again, Europe's weird guy. From what I know Euros hate milk chocolate (except for Bongs maybe, but they are not a benchmark when it comes to food)
I rarely eat chocolate but when I do it is Ritter Sport. They make some unique types.
Sebastian Parker
>mfw eating milk chocolate easter eggs right now
Jonathan Nelson
>From what I know Euros hate milk chocolate
You are incorrect. Never seen dark chokolate being much more popular, most of the flagship products of popular brands are milk chocolate.
Chase Harris
>however all euro's hate milk chocolate so I assume all of their chocolate is dark.
i dont know where you get your information but you are wrong ever heard of milka?
Samuel Roberts
>Dark Chocolate in the US is bitter
What's wrong with that? I like a little bit bitter chocolate.
Wyatt Ward
Lindt a shit.
Joseph Smith
We actually do have some decent chocolate despite the memes. If you can't find any then I feel bad for you. Git gud because I'm not helping you out either
Luke Russell
you can eat my eggs anytime
Aaron Price
>Unironically buying shit saying BIO on its packaging
Lucas Johnson
>not buying pure, patriotic Kazakh chocolate
>not importing fine camel milk chocolate from Dubai
>not buying dark chocolate rounds in bulk, melting them, tempering it, and making your own sea salt and roasted almond chocolate bars

fugg, this thread made me want to buy some chocolate

Here in italy adults usually prefer dark chocolate while kids prefer milk chocolate.
Chase Gray
Not what i was talking about
Angel Cruz
>chocolate that's not between 50-60% cocoa
William Brooks
I can't eat milk chocolate anymore because it has tons of calories and I get pimples after it. But I fucking love it.
Hunter Baker
>Butyric acid = vomit
Do you never consume any dairy products?
Wyatt Price
Good stuff there frenchbro
Nolan White
>mfw I buy all of these brands at my local import store >mfw Euros still think it's not a world economy and it's 2017
You people were the same ones who told me I couldn't get french mustard over here too, lmao. Enjoy the economic support, no need to thank me.
Colton Williams
Have you vomited so much that it tastes normal to you?
Oh, I get it, your belly is so full of sweets that even your vomit tastes like chocolate.
Jeremiah Brown

Eli Hill
>Butyric acid is found in milk, especially goat, sheep and buffalo milk, butter, parmesan cheese, and as a product of anaerobic fermentation (including in the colon and as body odor).
>do they only sell american products in american supermarkets?
It used to be that was the case, but nowadays even Safeway and Walmart stock shelves full of imports because the millennials get off to foreign brands. Legit import stores are usually run by first-second gen immigrants and they'll stock anything from baked goods, imported cured meats, imported beers + wines, european shelf stock and lots and lots of confections. Usually they'll have a deli where you can order prepared meals too. They're good places with friendlier staff than anything corporate, I enjoy supporting them.
Jeremiah Johnson
>ooohh no i learned about my microbiome today
Daily reminder everytime you eat cheese you eat an acid produced in your colon. And it's good for you.
Josiah Sullivan
The U.S import stores here suck and are only for hipsters who want to spend £11 on Lucky Charms.
Eli Cox
>American chocolate is soured >American water is fluorinated >American Chicken is chlorinated >American soda is fructososized
WTF IS THEIR PROBLEM?
Angel Harris
I bet you can't get good European cheese or meat though.
Caleb Taylor
We have a fetish for eating chemicals, that's how we got so fat.
MMMMM, dat sodium acid pyrophosphate.
Charles Scott
Then why does it taste just as described? I wouldn't drink milk if it tasted like a cow's nipplejuice.
Kevin Sanders
Thank you, very interesting. I am a poorfag from the countryside and I don't know such exotic stores and I can't afford to travel. The exotic things from foreign countries I come to see are Italian birds breeding here during springtime and sometimes I can steel few eggs that are very tasty. But they regularly defend their eggs so I send my cat in first and birds attack the cat. Maybe one day I can make intercourse with lost tourist girl with flat tire (maybe it will be me who made the tire flat haha). I know that there are American import stores in South Germany where the American bases are.
Tyler Smith
I get cave aged AOP Gruyere from my Grocery Outlet for $3.50/lb. Does that count?
Liam Flores
Are you from the fucking 50's ?
Owen Carter
No but from Brandenburg. My father was a commie officer in the Stasi and after 1990 he feared East Germans would lynch him so he decided to go back to the farmhouse where he was born. JUST give me the bullet
Kayden Martinez

John Adams
I am trapped here, Brudi. I mean trapped in a literal sense. We don't own car and my bicycle has no chain because my father uses it for the diesel generator.
Ethan Bailey
Because European chocolate is actual, real chocolate.
Colton Parker
Is it really from Switzerland? In Russia, they sometimes sell some shit labeled "made in Switzerland" but when you read the whole description it says "some of the ingredients were imported from Switzerland"(they don't even specify which ingredients) and cheese itself was made in a cykablyat oblast.
Luke Myers
Only 99-100% cacao chocolate is worthy of its name
Jordan Bailey
Europe gets theirs direct from Africa. Ours went through a careful selection process before being aged for ~150 years
Connor Perez
That's... The most horrible thing I've heard all day.
Caleb Jones
Literally the only good chocolate in the US is dark chocolate. You want it to be bitter. What you ate in Europe was probably milk chocolate.
Aaron Howard
wtf
Thomas Thomas
Fucking reverse sanctions. Putin hates us.
Daniel Wright
pic related is like a drug, could eat 300g bar by myself in one sitting

>american OREOs are like a plate in diameter >they start producing OREOs in Russia >size of a big coin
Nathaniel Jackson
This flavor is stupidly rare, I've only seen two places sell it in my entire life and they both stopped after a week.
Austin Ramirez
>american OREOs are like a plate in diameter What? No, you're wrong. Oreos are small enough to be eaten in a couple bites. Just about twice the size of a big coin.
Jordan Peterson
Ever had one of these?
Adrian Lewis
Oreo is revolting, even more when stuffed inside an average chocolate.
Pic related is the only decent Milka I tried. And the yoghurt one. The yoghurt ones good
Caleb Campbell
>chocolatiers >importing Ritter >thinking Ritter is good
Good Lord you Americans are fucking disgusting when it comes to chocolate.
Adam Lewis
you can get Dr. Pepper here sometimes I was surprised when I first tasted it and discovered how shit it was
Dominic Williams
unironically nothing wrong with ritter
Elijah Parker
It's no wonder you think so.
It's like arguing with a feminist and trying to explain why she is single and bitter.
Anyway, hopefully you'll stop being a pleb one day bro.
Austin Williams
Everybody likes milk chocolate. WTF are you talking about ?

>So whats the difference between the two? Considering how 80% of honey sold in the US does not actually contain honey, I'm gonna guess it has something to do with the ingredients in the US not being top notch, to say the least.
>all euro's hate milk chocolate Blatantly false, we just like dark chocolate a lot more than Americans, but we don't hate milk chocolate.
Isaac Foster
>Is it really from Switzerland? sorry, ivan, shit you describe doesn't happen anywhere else, so here if it says switzerland it is true. why do you even ask
Ethan Thomas
this, dr pepper is terrible, not sure why people wank over it i've read that euro soft drinks are on average much tastier than american counterparts because they are sweetened with sugar, not hfcs
Asher Gutierrez
You're missing out if you haven't tasted this stuff.
Xavier Richardson
Ritter is an ok supermarket chocolate but definitely not anything special at all.
Owen Hall
daily reminder that americans LITERALLY and UNIRONICALLY put vomit flavouring in their chocolate
this is FACT, I am NOT making this up
Andrew Thompson
You have honey being sold without containing honey, and champagne that isn't actually champagne, sounds to me like it happens at least in Murrika too.
Aiden Richardson
>non-nordics ever liking this
Christopher Bennett
our chocolate has bee vomit in it because it's hotter here than Europe so the chocolate will melt. this prevents it from melting too fast
Colton Allen
not sure what you are on about, but if something is made in the us we don't put "made in france" on the label which is apparently commonplace in russia.
Nathan Mitchell
That's one thing I can appreciate about the Eu's food regulations. If you wanna label something milk chocolate then you are legally required to have something like 25% cocoa in it. US regulations only go as far as requiring 10% cocoa solids in their milk chocolate. At that point it's barely even chocolate at all.
Brandon Davis
Stop posting our chocolate Sven.
t. Mongol.
Jaxson Scott
Is that chocolate with that salty liquorice in it? Sounds gross but maybe its weird enough to be nice.
Camden Diaz
Except its does happen since its totally legal to sell wine labeled as American Burgundy.
Ayden Powell
I don't think it's bitter in the good way. More like bitter in the synthetically rancid way.
Andrew Fisher
I like chocolate with stuff in it. Like nuts, gummies and fruit.
How is this any different from Cadbury or some other meme?
Samuel Davis
>He thinks this is French
Anthony Gomez
I've eaten this Weird Finnish uncle brought them from finlan itself They're fucking amazing
