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!
Have you tried their little burnt caramel chocolate bars by the check out? The smokiness in the caramel with that smooth chocolate finish is to die for!
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…)

As a Swiss person who likes chocolate, that sounds disgusting 😱
