> American chocolate tastes distinctively different from the kind made in Belgium, Switzerland or the UK - and most of the time, British people agree that the taste is inferior. I know it's not hip to defend America, but reading this article, especially how they use "Hershey's" and "American Chocolate" synonymously, makes me think of the sort of folks who vacation in the US for two weeks and leave thinking every grocery store is either 7-Eleven or Walmart. If you don't want Hershey's vomit-smelling chocolate, go to Whole Foods, or PCC, or Trader Joe's and pick up something else. Besides, if you want good chocolate, get it from Russia. (I don't know why, but it's the truth.)
