personally, I am of the belief that anything below 50% is not even real chocolate at all, and 70% is milk chocolate. I prefer 90%. How about you?
What %?
>>2040867490%
Chocolate preference directly correlates to psychopathy. When you hear someone say they prefer these bitter chocolates it should be a red flag to the listener.
>>2040867590% what?
I like dark chocolate. The darker the better. I want to cringe from how bitter it is. Only babies and women eat milk chocolate.
>>2040869390% real cocoa bean
>>20408673i'm not a big fan of chocolate that is below 95%. it's not a tough guy thing i just don't like the taste, i like my chocolate to taste bitter like coffee
>>20408695What's the other 10%?
>>20408673i like to have 100%, but with a bit of fruit or milk to go with it.
>>20408698probably cane sugar and cocoa butter and oil
>>20408698Sugar. The percentage is the ratio of cocoa powder to sugar.
>>20408673I believe anyone eating more than normie levels of dark chocolate is doing it so they can tell people about how they only eat X% chocolate or higher.
the heavy metals shit turned me off chocolate, but I dont mind since it was my one kryptonite for carb fasting.

>>20408735At the bottom of the article it links you to the Consumer Reports page that tells you which brands.
>>20408761>lindt high in cadmium>chocolove high in leadwhatever, heavy metals sound badass anyway
this study paid for by Big Ghiradelli
>>20408673Based. There's a 92% I quite enjoy.
how the FUCK is lead getting into food in the first place?WHY IS IT SO HARD FOR YOU TO JUST NOT USE LEAD OBJECTS IN YOUR FUCKING FOOD PREPARATION LITERALLY JUST FUCKING STOP STIRRING WITH LEAD SPOONS YOU STUPID CUNTS
I don't keep track.
>>20408795It's pollution mostly. It's in the soil so it ends up in the plant. And then apparently when it's laid out to dry, lead fumes from gas or whatever settle on it.
>>20408801This is why we need to start growing food in first world countries.
>>20408805We could if more people were willing to pay higher prices. Or invest more in food production technology.
>>20408673negro?????
>>20408813we used to be able to have 100% but the government restricted it to 60% in 1787
>>2040867390% lead, or cadmium?
>>20409180leadmium. fusion cuisine.
>>20408673I to (in my insecurity and low self esteem) base my manliness on a confection.
>>20409183>>20409185you eat white chocolate because it has 100% semen content
>>20409188shut up white chocolate eater.
>>20409190White chocolate isn't real chocolate. I only eat dark chocolate.
>>20409193sure you do white chocolate boy.
>>20409195>>20409190whoops, meant to reply to >>20409185
>>20409198white chocolate eater.
>>20409200meant for >>20409185
>>20409185100% chocolate is like the vegan version of those people that base their manliness on how rare their steak is
>>20409201keep apologizing white chocolate man.
>>20409205meant for >>20409205
dark chocolate is for incel chuds, white chocolate is the best
>>20408673you eat white chocolate
>>20408694>>20408696white chocolate eaters
>>20408700no you don't kek you eat white chocolate
>>20408691they are all lying and coping, they eat white chocolate
>>20408791you eat white chocolate
>>20408673>Despite making up 70% of the chocolate...
I melt white chocolate, then drop a single square of 70% dark in it. This is the maximum amount that should be tolerated by white people.
>>20409255i used to like the hershey's cookies and cream bar as a kid but i think it'd be too sweet now. can you get white chocolate with less sugar like buying dark chocolate? that might be okay.
HAHA LOOK MA, OP SAID THE NAUGHTY WORD!!! LOOK HOW COOL AND EDGY I AM GUYS LMFAO!
>>20408805Its not always due to money. Do you know why Theres arsenic in rice? Because rice is grown where other crops used to be, and they used certain pesticides in those areas on other crops. Its the failure of forward looking, which you can see in first world countries as well especially in the medical field
>>20409265Once a year around easter, but yes.
>>20408673I don't try to arbitrarily change definitions of words to make myself seem more adult because I'm no longer 12.
>>20408673Furthering the stereotype that white people don’t season their food ending a brick of condensed cocoa powder rather than mixing in fats and sugars to make it taste good
>>20408673.
>>20409844that's american white chocolate
>>20409847
>>20408805First world countries are even more polluted, lmao. You don't get to be first world by respecting the environment. Half of America is one big superfund site and 70 years of lead gas means the topsoil's fucked practically anywhere there's a road.
>>20409864Can you grow cocoa in the USA?
>>20409770>they used certain pesticides in those areas on other crops. What the fuck type of pesticide would contain arsenic? Who the fuck would use arsenic-based pesticides on plants, regardless of whether or not they're supposed to be eaten?
>>20409924It used to be a pretty common pesticide apparently. It was heavily used in cotton fields. It was just so effective that people kept using it I guess despite the obvious issues. Rice is more likely to take up arsenic and it's often grown in those old cotton fields.
>>20409770It's not always pollution. In at least some areas of India where rice is grown they use wells for irrigation and the groundwater is just naturally full of arsenic. Rice happens to be a plant that sequesters it for some reason, so even at otherwise acceptable concentrations it causes the food to be toxic.
>>20408673>and 70% is milk chocolatethat's not true at all obviously. everything above 35% is pure chocolate.anyways, i like 75% the most i think
>>20408673Ok. Now what? Tastes like ash.
>>20408694The vast majority of dark chocolate purchases are made by females who think its a healthy diet food which it isn't
>>20410207Indeed. It has no sugar, but it still has a lot of oil which isnt healthy in large amounts anyway. Might aswell eat cocoa powder at this point which obviously tastes like shit
>>20410041Did you even read my post
>>20409843>>20410199tastelets
>>20408673>I prefer 90%yup 90 or 92%lindt/Moser roth gang
OFFICIAL chocolate strength rankings:<70%: sugary garbage for children and americans70-80%: on the sweet side, but good for some cacaos and when you want something a little milder80-85%: perfectly balanced, optimal sweetness that doesn't dominate but cuts the natural bitterness of the cacao, bringing out the flavors that would otherwise be muted, you can not go wrong within this range85-90%: only suitable for higher quality cacaos and for those who don't mind the extra bitterness90%+: tryhard redditor zone, only exists to let people delude themselves into thinking that they are manly for liking it, the equivalent of drinking barrel strength whiskey or chewing on unbrewed coffee beans
so we just lettin racist pics be on ck now?
>>20411582>90% is suitable but also tryhard
I seriously just like the taste of 100% I don't get all the weirdness on either side of the argument
>>20411713for me, it's negro choco
>>20411713Who raped you?
>>20412606100% negro

>>20411713For me, it's
>>20413783They changed the branding recently however.
>>20408696>bitter like coffeecoffee is not bitter, its acidic and slightly sweet. if its bitter, its bug flavored charcoal tea not coffee
>>20408761except hersheys, Im glad none of those exist in my country. lindt is very expensive here
>>20413959Hey dipshit try chewing a coffee bean and get back to me.
>>2040867385% for me, although theres a dark milk 55% bar from a local brand that hits the spot
>>20410207>>20410210just dont eat the whole bar in one go you fat fucks, also dark chocolate actually gives you a "high"
>>20413980I have done it, and it wasnt bitter because it wasnt roasted to hell shit coffee
>>20413988>dark chocolate actually gives you a "high"bullshit
>>20408673toke and huesistos are better
>>20413993Chocolate is psychoactive just like tea or coffee. It's not super strong though unless you really consume a lot of it. But if you don't consume a lot of caffeine regularly or stuff like that, eating high percentage chocolate is kind of like having a cup of tea.
>>20414013Based cocoa contains caffeine enjoyer
>>20413712>black girl gets AIDS from dad>black girl gets raped by mom>black girl gets GED>black girl gets job
>>20414441what does that have to do with dark chocolate (food item)?
>bitters: chocolate:|>bitters: alcohol:O
Personally I can't eat any chocolate below 115% real, pure, unadulterated cocoa bean. It's just too sweet and lacks taste and I cannot fathom how anyone besides women, children and the lowest-T, soyest """men""" could like it.
>>20416842based
>>20408673I like salted dark chocolate.70%+ usually, but I'm not picky. Sometimes milk chocolate is tasty too, but I definitely prefer dark.
>>20414458both are enjoyable
>>20408694you'd like the meiji 95% one
>>20408811>were willing to pay higher prices.t. CNN economistThe truth is we are already paying 500-1000% mark ups. Lets just presume that if farming was reestablished in the West, the parasites that destroyed it and game the entire financial system are no longer around...
>>20418313
>>20408673people who say over 40% cocoa chocolate is bitter are addicted to sugary shit and their opinion should be disregarded
