USA has much, much better chocolate companies than Hershey. They just have a stellar marketing department really, and a neat little park 🤷

Edit: I just realized Hershey makes other candy like Reese's cups, so I'm not totally down on them I guess lmao

Tony’s Chocolonely is pretty good if you’re just looking for a brand. Most candy stores in the U.S. also sell fudge or chocolate coated treats. Fudge is legitimately gods food.

I really ought to try this Chocolonlely for its funny name alone.

I'm gonna Google fudge, I don't recognize that word, but thank you for your suggestions

Wait, fudge is not a common thing? What? 

Like, this reminds me of that guy who said he didn't know what a potato was to his dates parents

Hello again. I just got back from googling it.

I can't say I've ever seen or tasted it before. The wiki page mentioned it being used in...uh... bon bons? I don't know the English word. I've eaten those before but I can't really imagine eating it "raw".

Genuinely can't imagine how it would feel, I assume maybe chewy and rather sweet?

I don't think I've seen it in stores either. Perhaps I can check the American export aisle next time I go shopping.

It's like a much thicker, gooier chocolate that has a deeper flavor profile, but is not always as sweet.

The fuck do you mean it's not always as sweet, it's like 50% sugar by weight

All of the fudge I've eaten was less sweet.

What are y'all even putting in your chocolate, sucralose?

Probably. American chocolate manufacturers are depraved.

You can make a softer fudge by melting chocolate chips into condensed milk then letting it set up, it can be done in a sauce pan or in short burst in the microwave. Super easy.
