- cptskippy 10y agoIt's been in vogue in the USA for a while too but I think the market is still pretty small compared to candies like M&Ms.
- HelloNurse 10y agoWhat is "insane" about quality chocolate? Below 60% cocoa chocolate has either too much sugar for normal tastes or funny ingredients, 60 or 70% cocoa dark chocolate is sweet, 85% cocoa dark chocolate is mainstream, 99 or 100% is really bitter, covering a range of different tastes. The important chocolate quality axes are choice of cocoa varieties and quality of processing; the industrial-tasting 99% Lindt tablets in the photo have nothing in common with their Amedei or Bonnat counterparts.
- mhink 10y agoI think they were using the word "insane" as an intensifier. I agree with you, though- really good dark chocolate is the way to go. I work near Theo Chocolate in Seattle and the smell is just... unbelievably wonderful, especially in the mornings.
