The vast majority of American chocolate sucks compared to options from other countries, especially when they use corn syrup instead of sugar for sweets.

Let Nestle burn.

Nestle isn’t American, it’s a Swiss company.

True, but they make different chocolate for different regions.

American chocolate only tastes bad to non-americans. American chocolate uses butyric acid, which is present in vomit and rancid butter, so those that are sensitive to it think it tastes disgusting. Americans though are usually used to it because they grew up on it and don't taste it.

Still fuck nestle though for a myriad of other reasons.

Cost is a major factor in quality. I rarely buy quality chocolate, because it's like $15 a bar vs $3, and I just don't care that much.

However, fuck Nestle.

Quantity over quality, baby.
