I was raised10 miles from Hershey, and I now work directly next to the factory and Hersheypark. I grew up eating Hershey chocolate so I have a certain fondness for it, but I get people not liking it.
 
My guilty pleasure, Chocolate covered macadamia nuts

I've tried a few chocolates like Ferrero and Lindt, but they genuinely just taste so plain and bland to me, as someone who grew up eating Kinder. Cadbury's pretty good when it's just plain chocolate with no other flavors added, but Kinder, Hersheys and Reese's are where it's at for me. Kinder in particular, being my favorite
Kinder is a Ferrero brand.
 
I remember buying a Herschey bar in the UK at one of those overpriced American goods store.

Took one bite and threw it in the bin.

Shit has nothing on Cadbury's.

Is the air filled with the sour smell of vomit around there? Hersey's literally tastes like sick in your mouth. People who like it have strange taste.
 
Maybe I'm not sensitive to bitter, drink my tea and coffee black, and I drink all sorts of alcohol, because I've recently gotten into 90% dark lindt chocolate.

Its delicious, couple years ago it was disgusting.

I didn't even know there was 90%.
85% is like eating a freeze-dried block of Satan's bile.
 
Surprised people like Ghirardelli. I find it has too much wax and doesnt really have that great, smooth, melt as you bite. It stays pretty solid for several bites and I find that cheap and gross. It's not bad, but I just think the plain squares aren't great and only ever aim for the filled ones.
 
Milk chocolate is so much better than dark chocolate I cannot even fathom you weirdos.

But yeah, Hershey's is bottom tier, no matter what kind of chocolate you're dealing with. It doesn't even really taste like chocolate, it tastes like...well, like Hershey's. Has a chalky sort of thing going on. Not into it.
 
I miss Nestlé's Alpine White.

White chocolate with almonds. It was the only candy bar I ever truly loved.



They haven't made it in like 20-25 years. It's such a simple combination. Does it even exist anywhere at all?

Nestlés makes the very best
N-e-s-t-l-e-s


Also, Amazin' Fruit is the best gummy bear ever made. And they don't make it anymore. Screw Haribo and Black Forest. This was the shit. So soft and flavorful. The tropical ones were amazin...g.

Fuck candy companies. Also soda companies.
 
I remember when I was a kid and you'd always hear about Hersheys in movies and tv, then I actually got a chance to try it. Never again.
 
Just gonna preemptively say that Hershey's bars are fuckin' great and all you pretentious "oh, European chocolate is far superior mmm [sips teacup]" snobs can go preach elsewhere

Opinions can be wrong it seems.

OT: I friggin' love those things. I wish they weren't so good, my diet was going pretty well ;_;
 
First two posts - Dairy milk and Hershey's?

I'm not a food snob, but really both those taste like sweet shit, there's no chocolate flavour there, it's creamy sugar oil flavour. This isn't a US vs UK thing, Dairy Milk taste just as bland and non-chocolatey as Hershey's.
 
That's not 70% dark chocolate OP so that can't be the best....

Dark chocolate > Milk chocolate >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> White chocolate (gross who eats this stuff?)

Indeed. Chocolate needs to be at LEAST, at the VERY least 60%.
But for me, it usually starts at 70%.

There is no such thing as white chocolate, by the way.
 
You folks with a Cumberland Farms need to try this:

Don't hate me when you can't stop.

*Minor It Follows concept spoiler
I may or may not be hoping this works like It Follows where I try and pass it off. It's so addicting.
 
What's with the 'no such thing as white chocolate' people? I don't think anyone is trying to suggest the name comes from anything besides its consistency and style of dessert. It's tasty and I like it more than milk chocolate usually, but dark is my favorite.
 
Y'all chocolate snobs are crazy.

I'll just eat all the white chocolate that isn't consumed by the rest of this thread.
 
As soon as I read the thread title I thought "If this ain't Cadbury's Dairy Milk I'm gonna be mad."

It wasn't the plain Dairy Milk, but it is a Dairy Milk. So you are spared from my madness OP.


It always ends too quickly though. A flake the size of a Kit Kat Chunky, now THAT would be god tier.

I generally hear this in Switserland where they say: "there is no such thing as white chocolate"

From wiki.

White chocolate is not chocolate in the strict sense as it does not contain cocoa solids, the primary nutritional constituent of chocolate liquor.[1] During the manufacturing process, the dark-colored solids of the cocoa bean are separated from its fatty content (as with milk, semi-sweet, and dark chocolate) but, unlike conventional chocolates, the cocoa solids are not later recombined. As a result, white chocolate contains only trace amounts of the stimulants theobromine and caffeine,[2] while lacking the antioxidant properties or many characterizing ingredients of chocolate, such as thiamine, riboflavin, and phenylethylamine.[3] Often, the cocoa butter is deodorized to remove its strong flavor.[4]

Some preparations known as confectioner's coating or summer coating may be confused with white chocolate, but are made from inexpensive solid or hydrogenated vegetable and animal fats, and are not at all derived from cocoa. These preparations may actually be white (in contrast to white chocolate's ivory shade[4]) and will lack cocoa butter's flavor.
