Sorry, it’s the virgin white chocolate vs the Chad 90% cacao

Actually 90% is ridiculous like those super-turbo-hopped IPAs and is p much only so people can brag about how bitter they like their chocolate, but white chocolate still blows :colbert:

The 90% stuff is good for baking cakes and brownies if you don't like them overly sweet. I wouldn't eat it on its own though.

We bought a bar of 100% cocoa-solids chocolate, partially on a dare and partially because, hey, it's sugar-free! :downs: To no one's surprise, it tastes disgusting. I tasked our teen with sorting our snack collection into sweet and savory, and he asked where this awful chocolate bar went, the smartass.

Did I say "cookies?" I meant, "Fire in your face!"
I have a neighbor that travels for work a lot, and we're friends so she'll occasionally bring us something fun. She once brought us camel milk chocolate. I had to read the label 3 times before I realized it didn't say CARMEL.

Wasn't too bad, just a slight saltiness to it that countered the sweetness. Like a more mild milk chocolate.

White chocolate is great. It's a different flavor from milk chocolate or dark chocolate, but that's like getting mad at squirt for not being orange soda or lemon/lime like most other citrus sodas.

It does lack most of the :catdrugs: that chocolate usually has that cause a chemical reaction in your brain with endorphins and poo poo, but I've never been great at connecting that sort of thing with the foods I eat anyways.

Back at a LGS I hung out at, there was a restaurant across the street that sold deep fried Oreos. They came in boxes of six or so. Whenever anybody ordered from there, a bunch of us would chip in and have one single cookie. It's not about the lovely food, it's the memories associated with it.

God I miss Quiznos. The peppercorn steak and black angus steakhouse were good as gently caress. Get your steak subs with extra sauteed onions and mushrooms on toasted rosemary bread, yes bitch. I don't know what moron got rid of the honey bourbon chicken sub, but it was literally one of the best tasting chicken-chunk based subs I ever ate.

There are official legal rules dictating what is and isn't chocolate, and these products don't meet them.

This brought back a memory of being a kid, and eavesdropping a conversation between mom and dad about Christmas/Easter candy.

Dad preferred Palmer because it's cheap, so all 3 kids can have a stocking/basket full to the brim with chocolates. And kids aren't picky about candy, they'll eat it.

Mom wanted it to be Real Chocolate, because it tastes better, and the kids deserve real, good chocolate. It doesn't matter if you get less candy, it should be something that is a real treat, not junk food you don't even really like.

We had different Christmases/Easters throughout the years where either mom or dad won the argument. I largely preferred mom's method. BUT, Palmer made (maybe still does?) chocolate coins that had a layer of Reese's style peanut butter in the middle and it was so good. The perfect ratio of chocolate style product and dry crumbly peanut butter, stamped with JFK's face! I see chocolate coins all the time around the holidays, but haven't run into the peanut butter filled ones in ages.

I hated the chore of eating a giant Palmer chocolat-y easter bunny though.




RE: dark/milk/white chocolate tier chat, I like both really strong dark chocolate (80% or more) and white chocolate. Milk chocolate is just okay, I almost always wish it was dark or white chocolate instead. For example, Snickers is a good candy bar, but I like Zero bars better just because the white chocolate is better than milk chocolate.

Also, Reese's never should have made white chocolate peanut butter cups. They are terrible, the flavor just doesn't mix with the peanut butter filling.

The problem with Reeses is that they gently caress up something good (chocolate) with peanut butter.

Back in the 60’s, my mom worked at the Heath candy bar factory during summer break from high school. Her job would be to take the old bars that didn’t sell and scrape the chocolate off the toffee so they could be re-covered in fresh chocolate.

This was in southern Illinois, so hot and humid as gently caress in the summer. She still doesn’t like chocolate because it makes her remember the nauseating, hot, wet chocolate odor that would overwhelm you as you walked onto the factory at 7am every day.

My uncle worked there from high school till he retired. He unsurprisingly has type 2 diabetes.

Your life and your quest end here.


White chocolate is mostly terrible. The bar for it to be worthwhile is so much higher than for dark chocolate that the vast majority of the time it's just not going to reach it. And even at it's best, it pretty much only works as a component. I can't imagine ever choosing to eat white chocolate by itself.

Milk chocolate, on the other hand, is the embodiment mediocrity. There is literally no reason to ever use it for anything because dark would just be better. Despite not actually being bad, as such, it is guaranteed to be disappointing because of how much better it could have been.

So white chocolate, I generally won't eat, but milk chocolate I will eat it but I won't be happy about it.

Not sure how I'd feel if someone offered white chocolate or dark chocolate in ice cream form.
