From my limited experience, American chocolates are to actual chocolate what American beer is to actual beer or American coffee is to actual coffee... What?

America has the best 'friendly fire'. Some of the stuff they got up to in Iraq & Afghanistan really takes the biscuit.

Cadburys really shouldn't have been allowed to have been sold to an entirely non-UK company. Great Britain/England has been 'for sale' now for a few years with too many of our assets being sold off to largely non-UK based companies. The government is currently in the process of selling off the UK's remaining stake in the Channel Tunnel. They will probably use the money to enable more useless ***** to not have to go to work. Roll

I think America used to make the best cooking chocolate available with quite high cocoa solids percentage. Was it called Bakers chocolate or something like that?

When I went to the tenth anniversary Fanfest on my return journey I tried to buy some decent sweets in the airport but I couldn't really find any I liked. I try not to eat too many sweets and chocolate mainly to save my teeth. I think my favourite s probably include Cadburys Fruit & Nut, Quality Street, Bounty bars, After Eight mints, Cadburys Crème Eggs, Toblerone, fudge,& nougat. Big smile

Baker's is pretty good for cooking with, but I find that if I'm working with chocolate most coverture chocolates will work. I'd recommend some but that's free product placement for them. :P

Kimmie Candy is glorious. They make candy-coated, chocolate-covered habanero corn nuts. Also chocolate rocks big and solid enough to break windows.

If CCP would get Cadbury, the candy company that makes the chocolate Easter eggs, to make chocolate capsules in it, with a candy corpse, I'd probably blow a wad of cash buying them.

We can get some pretty good Chocolate here in Canada. Especially some of these specialty shops that makes their own Fudge on those huge slabs of marble and use Brass utensils while mixing, etc. There is this one place in Banff Alberta that makes incredible Dark Chocolate. Everything is hand made...

Some prefer a good bottle of whiskey, candy just gets gobbled up too quick. ;)

I'll bet little gingerbread teddy bears, with Null Sec alliance logos glazed on the tummies, would go over really, REALLY well...

If you can find Vosges or Mast Brothers, those are both excellent American chocolates. Not cheap, but the real stuff isn't.

For American coffee, try Kona. Not a blend, but the straight stuff if you can find it. It's a bit tricky to roast dark, as it's delicate tasting, but it also packs a huge wallop caffeine wise.
