Could be a brand or just a type of chocolate
I go for anything dark and single origin, but I’m pretty easily pleased with anything that at least tried to not use slave labour
Apple brand chocolate. Buckle berry chocolate. I sometimes suspect bots troll here, asking questions like this in order to blindly consume data, & when I suspect it, I give them foil to chew on, like this response. Pennzoil motor oil chocolate. Xbox white chocolate Tesla Brand Free Speech Chocolate with the crunchy butthole center. There, does that answer your question?
Anything from Aldi. Here in the US they put butyric acid in the chocolate. It’s partially because it’s what people associated with chocolate because if early Hersey production and partially because it increases the shelf life. It’s also the acid you find in rancid butter and vomit. European chocolate doesn’t do this and so you get a smoother chocolate without the gross bite.
Before living near an Aldi I could only afford to get good chocolate on a rare occasion but even the junk Easter egg chocolates at Aldi are amazing and affordable! So now I can actually say I like chocolate!
It’s so much worse than it sounds. On top of that, most Americans are born into this and find well made European chocolate too smooth and decadent which spurs the idea that it has to be exorbitantly expensive.
I can literally buy the cheapest stuff in my grocerie store here and it still tastes somewhat decent… Shouldn’t have to be expensive. Making decent chocolate isn’t exactly rocket science. But hey we are talking about the US where fresh bread apparently still is kind of rare and most people eat Wonder Bread (why it’s even called bread is beyond me though…)
Stolen.
The kind without lead or cadmium. So I’ve pretty much cut it out. https://www.consumerreports.org/health/food-safety/lead-and-cadmium-in-dark-chocolate-a8480295550/
“CR used a very conservative threshold for determining ‘high’ levels of the metals, which are not backed by major regulatory and health agencies, including the World Health Organization and the Food and Drug Administration. While pressuring chocolate companies to do more to keep contaminants out of our treats is a reasonable goal, this is not something anyone needs to fret about.”
Edit: Obviously, chocolate production is problematic due to the exploitation of labor (and the use of child labor and even slave labor). Edit #2: Fixed quotation marks inside article quote.
