A theory that sounds reasonable, on the surface, but if you read further this person also says: > Do you live in the USA?

Typically Lindt is merely OK, not > great, but in this bar they seem to have outdone themselves. 85% and above is not chocolate. This person is addicted to COCOA. Chocolate is a confection made from cocoa, cocoa butter, sugar, and flavor additives such as vanilla. Pure or nearly pure cocoa is not chocolate. This person is in denial about his COCOA ADDICTION. The difference between a 77% (or less) bar and 85% is that there is no sweetness at 85%. You may as well be injecting it directly into a vein. |
