Why are they trying to convince us that Dubai is some kind of a chocolate-making culture?

We know what happens in Dubai

>>21481380 (OP)
looks like shit, literally. ive eaten middle eastern food and your shit comes out that colour.
>>21481382
shitting on young american women.

>>21481380 (OP)
It is well known that the Swiss stole the recipe for pistacchio-filled chocolate from the ancient Trucial States nomadic tribesmen.

>>21481380 (OP)
it looks gross. i have yet to see a variation that doesn't look like chocolate filled with green poop. fuck dubai

>>21481380 (OP)
Have you ever seen Switzerland grow chocolate?

>>21481400
Agreed, it looks like babyshit filling, I've seen enough of that raising my son.

>>21481400
If food looking like poop stopped people from enjoying food, no one would eat indian food.

>>21481408
>no one would eat indian food.
anon I-

>>21481382
Kek been thinking this all the time I hear "Dubai Chocolate". Sounds like the new euphemism for instagram "influencers" "le travelling xd"

>real chocolate
the fact that they emphasis this is a major red flag

>>21481380 (OP)
Because Dubai isnt associated with anything except money and sleaze.

This is a concerted marketing push to create a non-greasy Dubai name.

As in
Think chocolate and pistachios not shitting on hookers and doing blow

>>21481408
that's different because indian food is its own thing. dubai chocolate is like if you took a steak and stuffed it full of green poopy doodoo and called it dubai steak.

>>21481502
Chocolate and pistachios probably go really hard after shitting on prostitutes and doing blow.

>>21481508
>dubai chocolate is like if you took a steak and stuffed it full of green poopy doodoo and called it dubai steak.
Americans do that all the time.
Add extra pickles to a 'Detroit Burger' and it becomes a 'Montana Burger'

Arabians have been making chocolate speciality desserts for years lole
A big market specifically is coffee sweets.

Plus seeing a category of dessert I've been eating since childhood get inflated in price and turned disgusting to appease some mindless American consumers is an experience to say the least.

I remember munching down on pistachio chocolate pancakes during holidays and occasionally stealing the coffee sweets/desserts from the adults during family gatherings, accidentally grabbing the pistachio cream-filled chocolates instead.

Yet Nestle here is stealing traditional sweets we've been making for cheap for years and inflating its value, with zero grace in its presentation, looking more like a bad attempt at replicating our fancy treats, and also making it harder for local businesses to continue making these at the same price or amount they used to.

I don't know if the US is just behind on this or if you grandpas are just always stuck in the past like how avacoados are still considered evil Hipster food when most people don't even remember what a Hipster is.
What I'm trying to say is, WHO GIVES A SHIT FAD HAS BEEN OVER SINCE JANUARY

>>21481380 (OP)
How about I just buy baklava with pistachio instead

you're telling me dubai chocolate isn't a euphamism for saudi princes shitting on whores?

>>21481551
Just like your childhood, zoomie. It's time to get a job.

I don’t know if any of you have tried this stuff, but it’s really fucking good. As far as meme foods go, I don’t mind this being popular. Up until a few months ago you couldn’t really get it in grocery stores here.
>>21481546
Too bad Ahmed. I’ll eat my pistachio chocolate and I’ll like it.

>>21481380 (OP)
they're following the japanese business model of
>make niche dessert/souvenier food
>throw big pricetag on it
>market it to travelers passing through the area
>make a 2500% profit from a product that cost $1 to make

Japanese do this in every single individual city/town/region. Tokyo Banana is basically just a twinkie with an overripe bit of banana mush inside but people line up to pay $15 for a box of 6 of them

>>21481553
Because baklava is shit tier?

>>21481380 (OP)
The hottest food of 2025, you are missing out if you are not part of the #DubaiChocolateLabubuRipsquad

>>21481562
How does it feel to overpay for a cheap dessert that's just 70% sugar and not the real thing?
Cause no offence, Dick, but that's what you're eating

>>21481562
It's good, but retardedly overpriced. I'll only buy it if there's a 50% off sticker on it.

Wow the memes >>21481391 became reality >>21481546

Nobody stole anything from you, Lindt has been selling pistacchio-filled chocolate before it even had a name.

>>21481752
OKAY that doesnt explain why suddenly dubai duck shit green chocolate is being pushed absolutely everywhere.

>>21481759
Because someone is paying the social media retards to push it

>>21481763
i dont use social media. i keep seeing it in stores.

>>21481767
It's started in social media. Now it's selling because most people are no better than cattle.

It was cheaper before it was rebranded to Dubai Chocolate btw.

>>21481767
>I don’t use social media
>posting in a Dubai chocolate thread in social media
You’re a fucking idiot, son.

>>21481752

>>21481770
Yes they rebranded it to Dubai Chocolate, to sell to you the same product, but watered down (less pistacchio), for more money.

I am boycotting Lindt forever btw, I am actually mad that they would stoop so low to jump on this bandwagon.

>>21481771
>I am boycotting Lindt forever
I’m sure you’ll be missed.

>>21481769
is 4chan really social media? i dont really know you guys youre all just numbers, other than randomly posting to random people there isnt much social stuff. apart from THOSE boards who love constantly adding and blocking eachother on kik

>>21481775
It's called having principles, it doesn't matter if Lindt fails or not, I am not buying from them anymore, simple as.

>>21481771
It has pistachio, kataifi and tahini in it it's not the same

>>21481778
Yes, the pistacchio is the most expensive part and what gives it the taste, kataifi and tahini are just shredded wheat dough and sesame seeds.

Like I said, watered-down pistacchio, sold with a markup, at a greater price than the whole pistacchio you were given before.

If Arabs want to claim this invention then I'll remember you as the guys who ruined pistacchio-filled chocolate.

>>21481775
So it'd be like if you stopped posting

>>21481785
>ruined it
Nobody gave a fuck about pistachio chocolate until Dubai chocolate came along, quit your bitching

>>21481794
Nobody marketed it, you mean. Important distinction.

>>21481794
This tbdesu, it wasn't even a moderately popular filling. Hazelnuts and almonds were noticeably more demanded.

>>21481794
>popular thing = good
I don't care, stop being an NPC.
It was actually better before it became popular.

And I got nothing against you Arabs, I am expressing an anti corporate sentiment. Please realize they are selling you a watered-down product for a greater price than before.

>>21481752
Kekw the difference is that Nestle is branding it as their own thing while marketing themselves as dubai owned, which they're not.

Lindt isn't trying to be "fancy" or "special", they only started branding themselves with "dubai chocolate" to sell that cheap overpriced shit.

>>21481799
As an arab, just from the videos and pictures I could tell it didn't have that authentic rich flavour that the pistachio chocolate should have.

Genuinely pisses me off that now I have to pay triple the price for less product for all pistachio treats now

Something to do with global pistachio supply (like the mcrib), arab/gulf PR, sales/marketing opportunity (like those stanley mugs).

>>21481869
>>21481873
I am glad we understand each other. Based and you have improved my opinion of Arabs.

>>21481778
Yeah so more cheap fillers. That justifies increasing the price to absurd levels

I'm fairly certain it's just some fad based on a meme, probably because some faggot influencer ate it.

>>21481752
that was my favourite thing to eat as a kid

>>21481380 (OP)
Don't fall for it. It's dumb meme shit. Only trust it if you make it yourself. There's now way too many dubai chocolate bars on the market to account for the stupid demand. A lot of them are contaminated.

>anus prolapse faced w*men cause a pistachio shortage
>Lidl stops selling these
>other products containing pistachio shoot up 50% in price
WW3 when

>>21482030
neither of those comments said a thing about cartoons, keep building strawmen to get angry about. Dubai chocolate legit looks like shit.

>>21482183
If your shit is green and runny I think you should see a doctor. You twat.

I think Dubai chocolate tastes pretty good.

>>21481776
nta. Yes, this is social media

cool

>>21481546
>wahhh my culture is going mainstream

>>21482832
Are you fucking retarded or something

>>21481380 (OP)
Because they're trying to tell these candies.
This is a brutal example of how global popularity can be manufactured in current year. These were only invented a few years ago, yet supposedly instantly found worldwide fame.
Why do you feel they're famous? Probably because you've seen social media accounts mentioning them a lot.
What happened was they paid a ton of social media accounts to talk about their chocolates at the same time. This created the impression that they're popular, which convinced some people to buy into it, which led to more social media posts that further amplified its popularity. Thus, the initially manufactured popularity resulted in real popularity and sales revenue.
This is why they're called "influencers" - their role is to amplify the influence of whoever pays them to break into mass global awareness. The line between reality and marketing is basically nonexistent and you just can't trust anything that becomes newly popular anymore. It's almost trivial to make something "popular" just by paying people on social media to talk about it, and any "big new thing" (whether a product, political shit, meme, etc) can easily just be the result of paid activities.

These are just reptar bars

>>21482885
It's called advertising

>>21481546
>Arabians have been making chocolate speciality desserts for years lole
Europeans have been doing it for centuries

I had the shake shack dubai chocolate shake and it was pretty good, not too much of anything, well balanced. I don't think it was worth the $8 they charge, but the product was nice

>>21481567
Good for them, retarded foreigners deserve to be swindled.

How fucking hard is it to make your own goddamn pistachio chocolate by pouring a ganache over crushed pistachio?
>NOOOOO BUT IT'S NOT THAT SIMPLE
It is not sixteen dollars worth of complexity however.
I'll take a subpar product for cheap over a slightly less subpar product for expensive.

>>21481776
"UM, THIS ISN'T SOCIAL MEDIA BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW YOUR NAMES!"

>>21481546
none of the raw ingredients are becoming prohibitively expensive. americans didn't make dubai "culture" the sleazy gluttonous caricature it is, that's simply the nature of the unencumbered arab.

>>21481776
4chan is social media but unlike other social medias
other social medias are filled with billions of people and companies pushing products
4chan is much smaller and filled with israeli psyops instead

Internet fads are short-lived and once people get tired of them, they are cruelly discarded.
It will be interesting to see how Dubai Chocolate's advertising strategy deals with this.

>>21481380 (OP)
theyre not, theyre a well known pistachio eating making culture

>>21481380 (OP)
Seem to be more pistagio goo than chocolate in those bars.

>>21483584
>Seem to be more pistagio goo than chocolate in those bars.
Pistachios have 10% fiber content, which helps to "get the train moving", very important for oil barons who need to perform for your daughter who "needed" an iPhone.

Socialist post

Where the weed version call ‘doobie chocolate’?

>>21481380 (OP)
There's nothing special or particularly good about it. The only reason why it's popular is bitches eating it on TikTok:

>See big ass chocolate bar
>Looks like shit. Is she eating shit?
>Click video.
>Watch bitch fellate chocolate bar, flaring her teeth after crunching on it with green and brown chunks in her teeth that look like shit.
>It's loud, not just the bitch chewing and sucking, but the chocolate is actually loud too.
>As you think about all this, the video ends and you just realized the bitch made you watch this to the end.
>You get angry that the bitch made you waste your time watching this, but you also wonder if the chocolate is actually good.
>You leave a comment telling the bitch to die, giving her the engagement she wants.

Rinse and repeat. Perpetual engagement.

>>21483724
There is a very simple solution to this called not having TikTok.

You choose to engage with this content. (Or at least you choose to use a platform that chooses what you watch using algorythmic fuckery)

It's probably good. But pistagios are expensive, so I can't imagine this being priced to sell.

>>21483813
Lidl has it. The bar is fairly small (122 grams = 4.3 oz), and it's like $6.

>>21483815
At least our chocolate doesn't taste like puke.

>when they tried a second time
I see these on sale for months, slowly trickling down in price, but still nobody buying. I guess it lacks the magic of the DUBAI name to attract the normie

>>21483836
there is nothing wrong with floor scraping. floor scrapings make the world go round.

It's an ugly, tacky, artificial city that consumes immense amounts of resources just to exist, built and maintained by slave labor's backs. It is one of the world's capitals of whoredom, money laundering, and white collar crime.

>>21483915

Unfortunately their immense wealth didn't retroactively make them into a civilized people so they squander it all on the most hilariously atrocious business ventures in the history of mankind while employing slave labour via systems I could best describe as human trafficking.

The muzzy oil barons are hand in hand with the western jews so they’re bribing them to promote their slop to the unwashed masses overseas.

Why are people in a tizzy over this "meme" food? I had some while I was in Turkey last year and its was pretty good from a texture perspective. Its like putting Baklava in a chocolate bar.

their pistachio choco is not only mediocre (it's even available in Aldi but nobody buying it kek) but it isn't novel at all; it's 100% a media scheme to bury any bad associations (bad news & scandals) with their country

>>21483729
>>21483835
I don't use TikTok that much, but from what I've seen nobody actually enjoys anything they see on it, it's a platform dedicated to engagement from rage bait.

For example, a ham woman making breakfast for her one year old daughter.

Also Gen Z office dances:

It'll be the year 2033 and we will STILL be eating Dubai Chocolate, and stores will DEFINITELY still be selling it! And price go down? Nonsense, it'll remain at the beautiful $15 price with even cheaper ingredients surely! It will definitely never be taken off store shelves. Yep, this is it folks! We have found the thing we will be eating for the rest of our lives. It's a true classic. It's all thanks to those amazing everlasting TikTok hacks that surely don't get forgotten when Big New Current Thing arrives on your algorithm.

Look lemme pull back the curtain and tell you the marketing strategy behind this (I work for the company and I can't sit around and let this continue to play out like some stupid orchestrated song and dance we've heard a million times).

Step 1: Find the gimmick.
Step 2: Market the gimmick, get people talking about it.
Step 3: Mass manufacture a "close enough" replicated version of the gimmick.
Step 4: People buy your gimmick, JUST ONCE. All we need is that ONE purchase. We don't need repeat customers, a single purchase per Marketed Individual of Interest (MII as referred to as a codeword).
Step 5: We make our money and then it doesn't matter how disgusting it is, the fact the MII bought the product ONCE is all we need. The One Purchase. Get your MII up to the margin of profit and boom this is how the game is played.

Until the next gimmick, folks!

They use Dubai because it's a part of the middle east that isn't actively hostile to the US like Iran where pistachios are actually from. If not for geopolitics they'd be called Tehran chocolate.
