Aldi in America has cheap European import chocolate.

I get that sometimes and it is ok.

Cadburys.

Cream eggs or caramel.

In all seriousness though why are they only sold in miniature sizes in a variety bag?

Eat 8 of the mini bars in a row and you’ll understand why

Mexican chocolate is where it's at.

There's a coffee shop here that has an excellent Mexican hot chocolate they make from, well, Mexican chocolate. It's so good.

GOAT'ed opinion.

I mean, chocolate was a part of Aztec culture before the Europeans even invaded.

Cream eggs or caramel.

The whole range. Tons of the stuff.

My friends who worked at Nestle always said Canadian and UK chocolate are way better. The US bars use shittier ingredients. They never said why, so maybe it's a cost cutting thing or a regulations issue where other countries have higher food standards.

But I'd guess a combo of both.

Often times getting things approved (edible or medical) is a lot tougher in Canada than the US parent company where FDA is easier to appease. I wouldnt be surprised if European standards are higher than US too.

As for Krackel, I've only seem them in mini size occasionally in Halloween bundles. Same bundle that would have something called Mr Goodbar too.

US chocolate is terrible, no doubt about it. Aussie chocolate also used to be terrible, but it's improved a lot in recent years. European chocolate is the best though.
