Hey man when you're right you're right.

That's my bad I remembered it wrong.

Well, I've heard something akin to that and I checked it very recently. I heard before (even read it) that because milkeries in the US are far from chocolate factories, butyric acid was used to preserve milk for a long journey, but as Europe is tiny and can fit on the back of a large pick up truck, they didn't have such problem.

That was a misunderstanding from the journalist that published that (AFAIK).

I can't find the original, but this also talks about it: https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/hersheys-chocolate-tastes-like-vomit_l_60479e5fc5b6af8f98bec0cd

That's exactly correct. It gave the milk a slightly spoiled taste which resulted in the chocolate being more bitter in flavor. I simply misremembered all the details.
