        You put a bit of corn in their bread and they legally declare it cake. Can’t win with them

          Huh? Are you trying to take a swing at corn bread cuz homie, every southern matriarch would like a word. Don’t shit on corn bread lol. But for real what is the connection between corn, chocolate and cake. I’ll be the first to admit candy corn is candy from Satan’s anus. The closest I can gather is carrot cake and that shit is just as good as corn bread if not better.

      Here’s a little explanation as to the differences with US chocolate.

      The bit about Butyric Acid explains why US chocolate tastes literally like vomit; it’s the component in vomit that gives it the distinctive taste and smell.

      When Hershey’s products came to the UK they initially had to be relabelled to reflect the extremely low cocoa content and be called “chocolate flavored candy bar”.

      Ironically, the article references Cadbury.

      I’m not being snarky, I swear. But Cadbury eggs were/are super gross. Were those made in America for Americans and you get a different product?

        Creme eggs have been around for 60-odd years. They’re crazy sweet and not very high-quality – especially after the Kraft acquisition, as it’s not even Cadbury’s Dairy Milk any more.

        What you get in the US are smaller and made over there by Hershey, so frankly they’re probably as bad or worse, but you’re not missing out on much.

      Huh? Some of the best chocolate is Ghirardelli which is American.

      Maybe you just don’t understand American chocolate.
