UK or USA chocolate, which brands and why

I always thought our chocolate was nicer but I'm sure I read the other day that it's worse.

I prefer UK chocolate but that may be because that's what I'm used to.

I hate Hershey's, it's a horrible taste and aftertaste for me.

But I prefer their M&Ms and their sweets though.

I used to love Cadbury's chocolate, Dairy Milk was a winner but now its just not as creamy and tastes a bit bland. However Hershey's is disgusting, well their normal chocolate is. I do like the Cookies n Cream stuff of theirs.

My fave american "candy bar" is Milkyway Midnight Dark" bit like the old Mars Dark and Gold we had here years ago which sadly doesn't exist anymore

Over here I prefer Galaxy chocolate, Mars brands or Milka, none of which are English

Their chocolate is awful, way too sweet & it also has a weird 'bite' to it, it's not smooth at all like ours.

That said, I do love their Baby Ruth bars and Milk Duds

Now, who was it that bought Cadbury's and lowered the quality of our chocolate? Do you think they were jealous ours was so much better?

I do like their Nestle Crunch better, though.

Our chocolate is way better in the UK. American chocolate tends to have a nasty after-taste.
Do love their peanut butter M&M's though and the candy corn ones if you are there at halloween, they are white choc and yummy.

Reeces is superb, as are Butterfinger. Hate Hersheys on its own though.

Ghirardelli's is nice.

Hersheys is good for unblocking the drains.
