Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

Damn, I think this may be the first truly angry upvote I've ever given. How someone can be so wrong, but post about it in the one place where the sheer insanity of saying it requires me to applaud their saying it, it don't understand.
Legit though, I get it. Dark chocolate is an odd pleasure. Sour isn't the right word, it's bitterness, though. And it's an earthy bitterness rather than something that is only bitter. But I can see how the dominance of the bitterness is going to overwhelm the palate until and unless you've taken the time to break away from sweet pleasures as the only pleasures. And that takes both time and effort, we aren't geared to detect bitterness as good by default.
I love me some white chocolate though! The cheap stuff is cloying and waxy, but when it's done well, you get this creamy texture along with the buttery flavor carried on sweetness.
