This. I adore Cadbury's for example, but apparently Hershey's has a right to that brand in the US, and you have to go to an international store and pay an arm and a leg to get a genuine Cadbury chocolate.
- MrBuddyCasino 12y agoNot to rain on your parade, but as someone who grew up near Switzerland, thats where the good stuff comes from. Cadbury is decent though. On a related note, I have always wondered why food quality is so different by region. For example, these are some categories where the good variety is hard to get in other countries: - belgian beer - swiss chocolate - italian mozzarella In this day and age where goods are shipped for almost nothing around the world, why do they still manage to sell inferior products without having a foreign competitor out-competing them with the better product? Is the foods market simply too price sensitive? Barriers to market entry too high?
- mkaziz 12y agoCan you recommend some good brands I could order online?
- 100timesthis 12y agoNot This. Cadbury's is just mud sold as chocolate, I can't even describe how bad it is.
- yitchelle 12y agoBut if your choice is limited, Cadbury's is not so bad. When I lived in Australia, the number of chocolate that I choose form is abysmal. There were offerings from Nestle, Cadbury's and some local offerings. The European chocolate like Lindt are quite expensive and are treated as luxury items.
- mkaziz 12y agoI grew up on it ... I like it. :) It's not Lindor Truffle, but it's good, solid chocolate.
