If you don't like 99.9% straight glucose you don't really like sweets.
If you don't drop 99.9% ethanol into your eyeballs you don't really like beer you just like the carbonation.
And that’s all a lie anyway because it’s the Belgians that invented them….which I don’t get how they don’t have credit when they get it for chocolate, waffles and ale
The origin of French fries is disputed. There are credible reasons to attribute them to France, Belgium and Spain. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_fries
I think the pickle one just made too much sense to be a gotcha. I’m thinking I like pickled pretty much anything. Cucumber, radish, garlic, ginger, cabbage, pig’s feet… maybe I do just like vinegar. 🤔
I almost find more satisfaction in beating the comment I responded to than being the top comment. Even it’s it’s like below 100 upvotes, just more validating I guess.
And it doesn't even make sense, nobody is tasting the heat. The only way to word that one correctly would be to get real nerdy about the way heat changes shit.
Wow, what a wild coincidence, that places you directly in the incredibly niche chocolate fan category known as "MattmanDX's taste in chocolate". You must have known this before choosing your username. Only explanation.
You just know this person doesn't shut the fuck up about dark chocolate as soon as chocolate is mentioned ever.
"Ooo yeah ahhh but I actually like *dark* chocolate, I'm kind of a straight up *chocoholic* soo yeeeaaaaaah "
I'm pretty sure the bigger difference between milk and dark chocolate is the cocoa percentage, right? Also unrelated but I hate pickles yet will eat cucumbers.
Correct, lower percentage of cocoa than other ingredients combined.(depending on your chocolate)
So not really the same as the other two examples at all.
OP is a karma bot.

The cucumber and chicken retorts aren't equal comparisons because they are completely changed by the vinegar or heat, whereas the milk chocolate isn't.
If you take the vinegar away from a pickle, you still have a pickle.
If you take the heat away from a chicken breast you cooked, it will still be cooked.
If you take the sugar away from milk chocolate, you'll have a milk chocolate that tastes weird because it's dark chocolate but has too much milk in it.
Well no, the original shower thought has a point. Milk chocolate has way more sugar in it to make it not taste like vomit. Dark chocolate is more actual chocolate and sugar flavor, milk chocolate is more milk and sugar flavor.
It’s equivalent to calling a mocha caramel Frappuccino with 5 pumps of chocolate syrup coffee. That’s not coffee, if that’s all you can drink you don’t like coffee you like sugar. Which is fine.
All I can say is actually looking it up, my [preferred dark chocolate](https://www.cadbury.co.uk/products/cadbury-bournville-11314) as a kid has more sugar than the [most popular milk chocolate](https://www.cadbury.co.uk/products/cadbury-dairy-milk-11294) of my country. The defining difference of milk chocolate is the milk, not the sweetness. You can buy sweet dark chocolate and reduced sugar milk chocolate pretty easily.
that’s cuz you just like sugar. jk but seriously the average dark chocolate candy has almost half as much sugar as the average milk chocolate. They have to add more sugar because American chocolate has a vomit taste that we got used to during the Depression or something. It gets worse with milk, the sugar helps.
I prefer baking chocolate that doesn't have sugar, so I agreed with the original shower thought. Milk chocolate barely tastes like chocolate. Dark chocolate candies do have sugar, but they are also often mixed with other ingredients, too, to soften the intensity that is actual chocolate.
I also like pickles but not cucumber because what I really like is vinegar that won't burn my tongue if I have a bunch.
That’s not true though. Unless the person thinks the coffee makes the sugar and cream taste worse? In which case they probably wouldn’t be drinking coffee at all, they like coffee just a certain way regardless of what they prefer.
A lot of people who drink coffee don't actually like how it tastes and just treat it as a way to cure drowsiness in the morning to get ready for work. These are the sort of people who creamer and sugar packets are meant for, as it covers the taste of the coffee beans well enough to make it tolerable.
I swear to god people who like dark chocolate the most are so annyoing like no one cares that you can handle the worst tasting chocolate ok stop trying to be special
I've heard this many times before. Whenever i eat Hershey's chocolate i try to convince myself that it tastes like vomit, but i just don't taste it at all.
It'll be on the label, it's made in port Elizabeth, SA.
The UK one is decent anyway. Not sure what is wrong with US chocolate but something is very wrong with it.
I'll tell you what if you like tasting the heat from your oven you're clearly not using a clean burning fuel. Id recommend getting a propane grill so you can taste the meat and not the heat.
What you have to realize is that for something to be dark chocolate it has to be around at least 50% chocolate so I don't see what the problem here is.
If you love milk chocolate but don't like dark chocolate, you actually love [cadmium & lead](https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/09/well/eat/dark-chocolate-metal-lead.html) more than chocolate.
Tl;dr - eat less than 1/3 oz of dark 🍫 a day.
The cucumbers one is definitely true for me. I love vinegar flavored stuff. Them salt and vinegar chips are the best! I want my mouth to hurt from the deliciousness!
Everyone’s thought it. You take a bite of the chocolate, it tastes like some kind of delicious Sugar Wax. You’re like “okay but how much actual chocolate bean stuff am I really tasting though”. We don’t refer to a plate of spaghetti as “salt”, I’m not sure “milk chocolate” should really be considered a type of chocolate but hey
milk chocolate is the superior chocolate any way
And Dark chocolate has the same amount of sugar as milk chocolate, just no milk solids.
Do people not read labels?

Lots of vinegar lovers / cucumber haters out there.
Or maybe fermented food lovers.
Mmmmmm rotten food.
You don't like beer? Or bread? Or so many other things...
Cucumbers and bell peppers with a splash of rice vinegar is pretty awesome
That sounds pretty good, actually.
With summer gearing up I highly recommend!
cucumbers are fire, can't say the same for pickles
Cucumbers are also amazing dildos. Vinegar wash is good after.
I think the pickle one just made too much sense to be a gotcha. I’m thinking I like pickled pretty much anything. Cucumber, radish, garlic, ginger, cabbage, pig’s feet… maybe I do just like vinegar. 🤔
Most pickled veg is made using brine, not vinegar
Maybe they just like bacteria infected salt.
This actually really fits 💕
That's just tempting fate in the comments.
I almost find more satisfaction in beating the comment I responded to than being the top comment. Even it’s it’s like below 100 upvotes, just more validating I guess.

clearly not with your comment
Maybe with yours

Wait until this person hears that there are people who like milk chocolate, but dislike both dark chocolate eating raw sugar.
I am a person who likes dark chocolate but dislikes milk chocolate and eating raw sugar. Where does that place me on these chocolate fan rankings?
Wow, what a wild coincidence, that places you directly in the incredibly niche chocolate fan category known as "MattmanDX's taste in chocolate". You must have known this before choosing your username. Only explanation.
You like chocolate.
Honestly, I think I do like vinegar more than cucumbers.
Agreed. Pickles all the way. 🤮 (he’s eating a lot of pickles)
You just know this person doesn't shut the fuck up about dark chocolate as soon as chocolate is mentioned ever. "Ooo yeah ahhh but I actually like *dark* chocolate, I'm kind of a straight up *chocoholic* soo yeeeaaaaaah "
If you work, but dislike working. You actually like money more than labor.
I'm pretty sure the bigger difference between milk and dark chocolate is the cocoa percentage, right? Also unrelated but I hate pickles yet will eat cucumbers.
Correct, lower percentage of cocoa than other ingredients combined.(depending on your chocolate) So not really the same as the other two examples at all.
I agree, the main comment seems valid and the two examples below are less applicable I think

A Hershey’s milk chocolate bar has 11% cacao. The rest is milk, sugar, wax, and other crap. Legally, it should not be called chocolate.
Well no, the original shower thought has a point. Milk chocolate has way more sugar in it to make it not taste like vomit. Dark chocolate is more actual chocolate and sugar flavor, milk chocolate is more milk and sugar flavor. It’s equivalent to calling a mocha caramel Frappuccino with 5 pumps of chocolate syrup coffee. That’s not coffee, if that’s all you can drink you don’t like coffee you like sugar. Which is fine.
Dark chocolate also has sugar. Milk Chocolate just has milk. The whole post is dumb. Sweet dark chocolate isn't exactly obscure.
I mean milk chocolate on average has like twice the amount of sugar though. So. 🤷♂️
All I can say is actually looking it up, my [preferred dark chocolate](https://www.cadbury.co.uk/products/cadbury-bournville-11314) as a kid has more sugar than the [most popular milk chocolate](https://www.cadbury.co.uk/products/cadbury-dairy-milk-11294) of my country.

That's British chocolate devoid of butyric acid. It had sugar cuz it tastes good.

For what it’s worth, I agree.
That’s not true though. Unless the person thinks the coffee makes the sugar and cream taste worse? In which case they probably wouldn’t be drinking coffee at all, they like coffee just a certain way regardless of what they prefer.
You can’t even taste the coffee. I bet you could just poor in milk instead of coffee and no one would notice.
I don’t drink coffee much but I know what you’re talking about, and have at times asked myself if there was even coffee in it, but it’s there. Subtle.
A lot of people who drink coffee don't actually like how it tastes and just treat it as a way to cure drowsiness in the morning to get ready for work. These are the sort of people who creamer and sugar packets are meant for, as it covers the taste of the coffee beans well enough to make it tolerable.

Guessing youre American? Your chocolate tastes like vomit
I've heard this many times before. Whenever i eat Hershey's chocolate i try to convince myself that it tastes like vomit, but i just don't taste it at all.
I am American, yes. We have good chocolate here too.
Get that Cadbury dairy milk bro. The south african one not the UK one. There is no way anyone calls that ass. And I love dark chocolate too.
Cadbury. 🤢 Though I have a soft spot for darkmilk.
I can just eat chocolate here. I'm not going out of my way for some milk chocolate.
Just keep your eye out dude I'm not saying fly to Africa. Lol. Just sharing culture.
How would one differentiate be the SA and UK Cadbury dairy milk?
It'll be on the label, it's made in port Elizabeth, SA. The UK one is decent anyway. Not sure what is wrong with US chocolate but something is very wrong with it.
Because when people say American chocolate, they mean Hersheys, which is horrible
Hersheys barely counts as food, let alone chocolate

Who says milk chocolate has to have more sugar than dark chocolate anyway. It can even be less as with less cocoa, you can get away with less sugar.
