Chocolate. I absolutely adore chocolate, but only good chocolate. I've sought out and nibbled on hundreds of different bars and blends. Anything under 70% dark just doesn't do it for me. I've melted down chocolate bars and mixed in baking chocolate and reset it so it would be darker.

Whitman's? Russel Stover? Hershey? Reeses? Miss me with that please.

If you get the chance to try a single origin Ecuadorian dark chocolate it's amazing, complex, fruity and floral. All of the pretentious stuff people describe about wine is genuinely there in chocolate.

As an American, our chocolate does indeed taste like vomit.

There's so many great American chocolates though, it's the cheap stuff that gives it such a bad reputation. Taza, Theo, Lake Champlain, Chocolove and lots of other little chocolatiers just doing their things but they just don't have the same kind of market presence.

Yeah, I was referring to things like mass produced chocolates.
