After a post I wrote earlier today, the word ‘real‘ made me think back to it.
I had compared our UK Malteasers to the USA’s Whoppers, and I lamented at the taste of the chocolate from that side of the Atlantic.
Then, through the comments, I find that actually, my American counterparts don’t actually get to eat real chocolate! You poor things!
According to legislations out there, the amount of Cacao that can be used is significantly less than here, and there are all manner of fillers used, corn starch, and fats, to bulk it out.
I feel like that is a true travesty! How can someone tamper with something like chocolate?!
REAL chocolate! I feel privileged to be able to get decent, real chocolate here. Even the cheaper brands still taste good!
