I thought it is another name to describe sweets and biscuits.
I like a good amount of coca inside as well.

Isn't white chocolate just called confectionary? That's what I thought.

Dark chocolate's okay, but milk chocolate is better! wub.gif

Finally, somebody who agrees with me. Milk chocolate is so much better then dark.

Could you explain your reasons as to why it is better than dark chocolate?

I don't like too much of coca inside such as levels of 70% as for the richness.

a lot of people seem to think that really dark chocolate is really really good, but I think it might be an acquired taste. I've always found it unpleasantly bitter, whereas milk chocolate is sweet and yummy.

Well I know it is sweet but I don't think it is any better. It is just that they put less coca in unless for talking about chemically flavoured chocolates with smaller amounts in.

When considering what is "better" chocolate, most people don't take ingredients or health benefits into account; all they think about is which is more pleasing to their particular taste buds. For example, you could ask someone which they thought was "better": a chunk of boiled cabbage, or a piece of toffee. They would most likely say the toffee was better because they liked the taste more than the cabbage, not because it was natural or healthier for them.

Just wondering when they say "this is better for you" when I haven't even tried it yet.

So I'll assume that when they say better, they mean for themselves. That seems deceiving to say that something is better for one thing or one outlook of it without saying the disadvantages as well.

In one country it makes sense as to why some of the farmers there in the age of the Industrial Revolution chose to move into the towns and work in the factories. Is it because they thought it was better as for the higher wages offered to them? So what they did not consider are the other conditions which overlapped the idea of extra wages. Unhygienic living, high pollution from factories, less food, overcrowded workforce and housing.


Same enticement from adverts: They knowingly make a piece of junk look pretty and trendy, hide all the specifications to the downside and exaggerate the words better, powerful and associate it to anything positive. A ginger beer without any ginger inside. But it looks pretty on the packaging, maybe as an attempt to increase consumer confidence.

I'm slightly allergic to chocolate. It makes me sneeze really hard and painfully. The richer the chocolate, the more/harder the sneezes. And this particular condition was referred to in Burton's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory!

And I'll just eat the chocolate anyway, of course. tongue.gif

Years ago anything biscuity I use to freeze.

Maltesers
Ferro Rocher
Chocolate Biscuits

Now I like home made flapjacks with oats and that Green and Blacks milk chocolate covered ontop. To me it seems tasteful when it comes out of the oven and crunchy in the fridge or freezer when there is chocolate ontop.

Oh pure white chocolate.
I remember that it contained milk, coca butter and vanilla extracts to the quality bars.
Still too rich for me.

Regardless of the name, I don't like it. It's too in-your-face sweet for me.

I am have been feeling very unwell for these part few days. Four diarrheas today and I thought I had a cold when it all started out after eating School food on Tuesday at work experience. I now know why the people I work with never ate the food their for years.

I spent about $12 on:
Pizza (Horrible and grimy)
Toad in the whole (Greasy)
Chicken wrap thing
Two what they call healthy fruit drinks

No no no no no I am NOT going back to that cafeteria.
I now know why the children are shouting and misbehaving. I think they are irritated because their stomachs are irriated from the food there as a response to the reaction of eating. Its all privatised too with limited choices.

In some places they refuse to let the students out of school at dinner time because they might eat unhealthy food. That is so hypocritical. They serve the same thing, flimsy beef bugers, grindy constituted chips, grimey pizzas and the place is littered with sweat machines with contents that aren't healthy for you.
