Is it true that American chocolate tastes like vomit, or are all of you shitposting?

>>21489381 (OP)
Hershey's specifically has an unpleasant aftertaste.

>>21489381 (OP)
It's Hershey's because they used butyric acid to make chocolate more affordable a long time ago, and kept it because people get used to certain tastes. Swiss chocolate contains high lead levels though, so who's shitting who?

>>21489383
>>21489388
It's only Hershey's milk chocolate. Their dark chocolate doesn't taste like that. Other brands of milk chocolate don't taste like it either.

Welp, guess this thread is done. All the necessary info has been posted.
Thanks anons, good thread. See you in the next one.

>>21489443
Don't you want to discuss why Americans accept vomit tasting food as acceptable just because they're "used to it"? Makes me wonder if they started using a chemical that made food taste like poop because it was cheaper if they'd just happily shove it down their fat gullets. Animals.

>>21489443
Wait we need the people whose taste buds are burned beyond repair by junk food to start a 200+ reply argument about how it doesn't actually taste like puke

>>21489381 (OP)
>Is it true that American chocolate tastes like vomit?
Yes it does.

It comes from Butyric acid which is added because Americans like the taste but originally it was naturally occurring from spoilt milk in the manufacturing process, as hygiene standards are low and cleaning was a low priority.

Truth. But.. I use it for smores and it doesnt taste like barf after melted.. am I burning the evil out?

In Australia they don’t even sell the full chocolate version in major supermarkets. I think that they don’t want to disappoint their customers.

>>21489652
Probably not. The boiling point of butyric acid is 163.75 °C and I highly doubt that the chocolate in your smores gets anywhere near that hot.

The Hershey's Kisses literally look like piles of shit. Better vomit than shit.

>>21489388
it's because when hershey was trying to make chocolate the european process was a trade secret and no one would teach it to him. he reverse engineered the process through experimentation, but during the testing the milk he was using started to spoil. it made the chocolate taste funny, but most americans at the time didn't know any better and assumed that chocolate was supposed to taste that way.

>>21489652
It's not evil, just low quality. It's really not even low quality for having the butyric acid, plenty of other foods like anchovies and parm have a lot of that. You could take the butyric acid out and it would be just as much slop as it was before, just taste a bit different.

>>21489649
Do you think butter tastes like vomit? That also has butyric acid

>>21489626
Truffles are regarded as a delicacy in Europe, and their main flavor comes from the same VOC in human farts.

>>21489388
Butyric acid is found in a bunch of foods. It's the key flavor in cultured butter, and it's a significant part of the flavor of aged sharp cheeses. Aromatic chemicals have wildly different properties at different concentrations, like how when skatole is concentrated it smells exactly like feces, but in small amounts it's part of the aroma of truffles and even some floral perfumes. Butyric acid only starts to smell like vomit when it's concentrated.

Lots of American cope here.
O-o-our chocolate wins prizes and it doesn't taste of vomit, it's all lies, boo hoo.

I though the europoor was banned from posting on 4chan

>>21489626
And yet yurops jizz themselves over parmesan cheese, which has even more of the exact same vomitous chemical in it.

>>21489740
Yeah I enjoy foods with butyric acid, I don't think that's why Hershey's is bad. Hershey's is bad because it's cheaply made all over the place.

>>21489739
truffles dont taste like farts
>>21490095
parmesan cheese doesn't taste like vomit

>>21489679
No they don't. Shit doesn't look like that.

>>21490025
You though?

I wish the incel frog fren fags were banned.

Chocolate cereal also has a peculiar smell.

>>21489679
I can't believe anon has never taken a shit

anyone who doesnt eat swiss or american chocolate.

Neither does Hershey's you mong

>>21489381 (OP)
You want chocolate that truely tastes like vomit? Try Palmer. It's absolutely disgusting and it's all over Walmart for the holidays.

Ghirardelli is pretty good. I've been to the square in San Francisco.

>>21490574
RM Palmer chocolate has always been weirdly waxy to me, I never buy it as an adult

>>21490528
Yes it does, why do you think people literally say it tastes like vomit?

>>21490623
People say that because they've heard the story about butyric acid so they then play it up as a dig at America. They're making it up. At the concentrations found in Hershey's chocolate nobody would detect it as being similar to vomit.

>>21489381 (OP)

but at least they have guns, to blow their own brains out to end the suffering, that's a plus

>>21489381 (OP)
Chocolate, cheese, wine, you name it.
They find a way to fuck it up.

>>21491174
Bro I've tried it and it tasted like vomit to me, and this was before I'd ever seen any online discussion of it tasting like vomit.

>>21489383
>>21489413
Why?

>>21491775
>euros eat so much sugar that their vomit tastes like chocolate
do they really

>>21491782
Something about the way Hershey's milk chocolate was originally produced created butyric acid which gives it that kind of vomit flavor. They improved the process but people had gotten used to the taste and didn't want it changed.

>>21489381 (OP)
Your island has entire storefronts dedicated to importing American snack foods. Nobody believes you don't already eat it.

>>21491790
>Something about the way Hershey's milk chocolate was originally produced created butyric acid
It was originally rancid dairy, due to poor cleaning practise during production.

Like you said Americans got used to it.

>>21489381 (OP)
>Is it true that American chocolate tastes like vomit
No
>are all of you shitposting?
Yes

>>21489381 (OP)
hershey's does a little bit but I don't care it's still pretty good

>>21489381 (OP)
Chocolate Enjoyer here.
Typically European chocolate tastes better than US Milk Chocolate.
I order stuff from Europe a lot.
But Euro Poors are absolutely COPing if they think US chocolate is "Puke worthy"

US made dark chocolate is pretty good.
No mass production trash ingredients.
Ditch chocolate can be good is the right circumstances as well.

>>21489381 (OP)
I'm an American.
I had a British friend of mine send me English chocolates from overseas.
Guess what? They tasted exactly like American chocolates, and I literally couldn't tell the difference.
Fucking limeys

>>21491775
Does swiss cheese taste like vomit to you too?

>>21489381 (OP)
this is funny because you typed that like it's american cheese, there isn't such thing as american chocolate as a variant or flavor

>>21492295
Not at all

as a yuro who moved to US, one specific brand of chocolate tasting like vomit is one of the most insignificant issues with US grocery/restaurant food

>>21489381 (OP)
They have better chocolate here in the USA than in the rest of the world you just need to go to a chocolatier to get it.

The problem isn't the butyric acid.
It's the fact they replace cocoa butter with other vegetable oils, giving it that waxy texture.

>>21489381 (OP)
Only hershey's cause they're cheap asses. Just buy good chocolate and you'll get good chocolate. Hershey is the shit you hand out to trick or treaters, you don't buy that shit for yourself. Get some Tony's or something, have some self respect

>>21492255
>I'm an American.
And I'm making up a story because I don't like bongs.

>>21489381 (OP)
Its the same "vomit" aftertaste you get with some beer (which has the same butyric acid naturally). Yeah if you think about it hard, its similar. But in context of drinking a beer or eating hersheys, the slight bitter taste is fine.

>>21489381 (OP)
Americans are brainwashed retards, they could buy latinoamerican chocolate (real cacao) at the same price

>>21491782
they use something in it that tastes like spoiled milk

>>21489383
>>21489388
>>21489413
If Hersheys is bad why are Hershey kisses so good?

>>21489381 (OP)
No, you have it backwards, American vomit tastes like chocolate. So open wide, eurocuck, I feel some dessert coming on.

Euro here, I tried American Hershey's but it didn't taste like vomit to me. Just regular basic bitch chocolate, maybe slightly worse than milk.

What does regularly taste like vomit to me is many brands of protein bar. Idk why. Maybe they have more butryic acid) l?Maybe it's the whey? Maybe the way they isolate it from the milk imparts the vomit flavor? idk

>>21492817
>than milk.
than milka

>>21492819
Much worse than milka, you cock. Incomparable.

>>21492819

Sorry I had to reiterate that you're a cock

>>21492819
>than milka
than melk

>>21489381 (OP)
"Butyrised" milk in Hershey's (maybe others). Having said that, butyric acid is also present in Parmesan and gives it a "vomit" flavour to some people
