The flavor and the texture are so much better than those bitter dark chocolate bars.

I also think white is better than dark chocolate, but what kind of dark chocolate you're eating that's sour? Dark chocolate is supposed to be bitter.

American chocolates (like Hershey's) tend to taste more sour because they have more sugar and less cacao. The milk also tends to have a more butyric acid taste for some reason. Perhaps the difference is how the milk is treated, but those are trade secrets.

But OP mentions dark chocolate, not milk chocolate

[-] spiffeeroo@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago

A lot of dark chocolate on the market contain milk even though they are not supposed to since they are processed with the same equipment. Some brands list milk in their dark chocolate ingredient label. Perhaps OP is very sensitive to that certain sour flavour.

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/
