here's a life hack: dont chew on it or the tannins come out and give it a bitter taste. you're supposed to let it melt in your mouth slowly without chewing

If you eat and enjoy anything under 72% real coco, then you're basically human garbage.

First time I tried a Hershey's chocolate bar I threw it out because I was sure it somehow spoiled or got contaminated. A few years later I tried another and realized they are supposed to taste like puke.

i guess if he's dead then he probably didn't mind paying that much for a burger. like if i was going to die in the next 20 minutes and i was stuck in an airport and there was a halfway decent burger to be had for $400 then i'd def blow my money on that since there's probably no hookers at the airport

Eat it with a bit of candied ginger. It evens out the taste nicely

It's a really bad burger, but everyone who bought it says it's good because who wants to admit they spent $400 on a lovely burger

It wasn't just you, it's just your taste hasn't been hosed up since childhood so you actually noticed it:

quote:

The process is a trade secret, but experts speculate that the milk is partially lipolyzed, producing butyric acid, which stabilizes the milk from further fermentation. This compound gives the product a particular sour, "tangy" taste, to which the US public has become accustomed, to the point that other manufacturers often add butyric acid to their milk chocolates.[1]

if you get like little chips of it of pure cocoa and sprinkle it on poo poo (eg berries) its good, but if you try to eat it on its own it tastes like wood. thats just life, amigos

Most commercial chocolate sold here in North America tastes like granulated sugar mixed with coco powder sintered into a bar-like shape. European chocolate is far more savory for some reason.

Monsters?
They look like monsters to you?

Maybe you should have bought babby chocolate or have just eaten sugar, I dunno.

Protip for those who like dark chocolate: Cost Plus sells a 99% cacao bar which is pretty awesome.
