[@Fleur24]

Fun fact: Milka is considered by many chocolate loving Europeans as kind of a trash, super suggary chocolate, kind of a McDonalds among burger places. It's pretty much the cheapest and due to that most sold one here. If you want high-quality stuff I highly recommend brands like Lyra chocolate (their Mandala chocolate is amazing) or some nicer Belgian brands. For ok-ish quality chocolate I recommend Orion or Figaro. Milka is really considered as junk food among chocolates and usually only people who don't mind eating junk will buy it, ooooor you will usually buy it to kids bcs SUGAR.

Hersey and many other US chocolates contain Butyric Acid to extend the expiration date, as well as Tertiary Butylhydroquinone and Polyglycerol Polyricinoleate for textures and to lessen need for high cocoa percentage, and this is the main source of bad taste in these. In addition they usually have less cocoa percentage in US than in Europe.

[@gubruikertje]

Are you serious? Legally, that would not even be considered chocolate in the Netherlands, as we have a 25% cacao requirement.

[@evilmessiah81]

not true, its just labeled different, in the us they separate cocoa butter and pure cocoa on the lable, in europe its measured as a whole, so the total cocoa mass is almost the same. its the butyric acid they use in american chocolate to make the milk shelfstable that create the bad aftertaste

[@vald9698]

No, its the preservatives in it. The butyric acid, especially, which I think they put in almost all their chocolate products, not only Hershey. I think there is a youtube video about how this substance came to be used and why it totally changes the taste of chocolate.

[@mademoiselledusfonctionell1609]

It is both the contents and the fact that the production process of American "chocolate"creates butyric acid and creates a floury rather than creamy smooth texture. THat Hershey's are still in business is sort of proof that market economy does not necessarily weed out bad actors. (Not that I prefer socialism, it is just that I don't trust market economy to create a Shangri-la.)

[@gubruikertje]

@@evilmessiah81 I think you might be confused, as in America they measure chocolate liquor with a minimum of 10% while in most of the world there is a minimum of 25% cacao solids. The cheaper chocolate like Milka is just a bit over this, but American cheap chocolate is legally not considered chocolate in most of the world. If you mean the percentage found on the wrapper of dark chocolate for marketing purposes, this refers to how much is from the cacao bean. It's just a taste thing, pretty much showing how much sugar is added (the remaining percentage).

[@BadgerOff32]

I'm English, and one of our biggest chocolate brands Cadburys got bought by Kraft Foods (who own Hersheys), primarily so that Kraft could access Cadburys vast European supply line. That meant that Hershey bars started appearing in our supermarkets and shops. They never sold. Even when my local supermarket was running low on stock and had hardly any chocolate left on the shelves, I would always see full boxes of Hersheys sitting there untouched. I'd even see full boxes in the 'reduced' section and they still wouldn't sell! No-one over here wanted it because it's just absolute crap! I don't see Hersheys in shops much anymore. I think their attempt to break into new markets failed spectacularly!

[@mokurai8233]

That is funny. Cadbury has done something similar to popular polish Chocolatier "E. Wedel". Their chocolates were too loaded with sugar for most polish tastes, and it also flopped. They returned to the original recipes later on.

[@Kiwi-Araga]

Milka is also owned by Mondelez/Kraft, but the EU do not allow them to produce both Milka and Cadbury in the same country to avoid monopoly, or at least to avoid a single company covering too much of the same market. EDIT: I looked at the brand list, they even own Côte d'Or and Toblerone.

I live in Finland and I used to be a huge USA fan so when about 8 years ago I realized there's Hershey's for sale in Lidl I bought one and at first I was disappointed because it tasted like a really cheap easter egg or something but I got the vomit aftertaste and it was the first time in my life I threw chocolate in the trash!

It's the classic milk chocolate with roasted almond chunks and, just like their ad states, is most Greeks' first love. 2. Pavlidis Cherry, because I associate it with my late teens.

That one is really really nice. I am from Germany, but i Had a Partner from Finland, so i Had the Honor to try fazer 😍

[@cbm_doomworld]

fazer mint is amazing ❤

[@mkoschmall]

Two brands that you definitely need to try are Marabou from Sweden and Toblerone from Switzerland. Also, as stated elsewhere in the comments, if you get your hands on real belgian chocolate, that‘s a whole different ball-game.

[@emmabraem1729]

If you are ever have the opportunity to visit Europe, start in Belgium. Skip Brussels and visit the less known tourist spots, like Ghent. Our (Belgian) food and drinks are fantastic. As are our streets, just be mindful of bikes. Than see all the rest of Europe. Every country is interesting with good food wonderful cities and great people. Although we are quite different from Americans, you might enjoy us after you get to know us. Best of all, you´ll never be sick and if you have to go to the emergency, ambulances are affordable and doctors and medicines too! Try not to drive here. Our cities are difficult, with small streets. Greatings from Flanders!

Milka is really good for its price, its actually pretty cheap chocolate

[@timithius]

Even here in Montreal.

[@mirkostrauchmann5580]

An absolute must-try are Marabou chocolate from Sweden and German Lindt choc!

[@ankra12]

Marabou is too sweet.

Marabou milk chocolate is so good.

[@thegalhorowitz]

Im swedish and marabou sucks, its overly sweet and not defined notes but sure better than hersheys. I used to be a flight attendant and ate chocolate from every airport all over the world… Not much beats swiss / belgian/ german brands

[@JulienGameContent]

I'm so happy that you tried european chocolate because its so good. I live in the netherlands and I like the belgian chocolate :).

[@НиколайДойчинов-г2д]

Milka is being produced in my hometown - Svoge, Bulgaria. The factory is part of the Mondelez International company. It became part of the Mondelez family since 1993 but the very first foundation was laid in 1924. Svoge is the chocolate heart of Bulgaria, exporting a variety of products worldwide. :)

Hershey's chocolate is not actually chocolate, it's called 'milk chocolate coating' if you look on the packet, same as the 'chocolate' on Reese's cups. European chocolate is actually called chocolate because it is proper chocolate with cocoa & milk solids. Ritter sport is one of the nicer cheap chocolate out there. interesting fact you'll find flavors like yogurt in that brand because they can't use artificial flavorings at all in Germany.

Yeeess. That’s how you supposed to eat Milka, especially the original once. I loved to eat them with some hot drink to make them melt faster.

You should try Nordic chocolate, finnish Fazer and swedish Marabou, for a broader european chocolate experience.

[@ZuulGatekeeper]

Buy a Hershey’s bar in the UK & read the packaging it's labelled as a “chocolate flavour” bar because they can't legally call it a chocolate bar due to it's low coca content.

[@t.a.k.palfrey3882]

There are about 50 different regular varieties of Milka chocolate bars. In addition there are special edition ones from time to time, and seasonal varieties around Christmas and Easter. So you've a way to go to taste them all!! 😅 Although Milka was established by the Swiss chocolate company Suchard, and remains headquartered in Switzerland, today it is actually produced in Southwest Germany, and in Slovakia.

[@olgahein4384]

Yeah, i thought he had a cute little selection of a few Milka types - and then hes goes 'every Milka type ever made' so proudly, lol. As a kid i thought Milka was a german company, cause we went to the factory in Lörrach when we were on a school trip, shocked me to learn it's swiss.

European from Portugal. Undeniable the Belgian chocolate is the best. Super creamy. From those like me who prefer dark chocolate we have Jubileu. There are 70% , 85% even 99% cacao. Also chocolate glazed dry fruits from that brand.

[@Excanda]

In Europe we learned that the best chocolate is either Swiss or Belgium chocolate, though Belgium mostly focuses on Bonbons and Swiss chocolate is more the bars. Ritter Sport is from Germany and while good doesn't reach Swiss quality.

[@victoriagossani8523]

Hundred per cent agree. And people speaks about Cadbury! Like I said in another comment: you don't know what chocolat is before testing Swiss chocolat.

[@angievandebroek5917]

Try Dutch brand Tony's Chocolonely, the largest chocolate brand in the Netherlands and is available in multiple markets like the USA, England, Germany, Belgium and Scandinavia. Imo better tasting than Milka.😏😊

Milka is more about an how much cheap sugar they add in it. You should try the assortments from Neuhaus, Léonidas, or Godiva, they're much more refined and delicious.
