Depends on what you bought. DH says that about French chocolate, but
he's swiss . He can tell the difference between chocolate made in
Switzerland and in France, even if it's the same label (ditto for
Germany, tho he says it's better than the French stuff). What is
available in the US is often different, even tho it says 'imported'
than what is sold locally in the country of origin. We don't even buy
chocolate "made in Switzerland" in the US, it doesn't taste the same.
Just like beer - even though it may be Guinness, it's not the same as
the Guinness you get in a pub in Ireland.


I grew up in the US. I never liked chocolate much. One day I tasted
Real Swiss chocolate. Oh my. I decided I liked chocolate afterall,
still don't eat the US stuff though. I'd say Belgian is probably the
best however.
