Milk Chocolate is just sugar.

Dark Chocolate > Milk Chocolate.

Was able to pick up a Lindt milk chocolate bar today and it was really good. My new favorite! Thanks for the heads up.

Ethel M if you ever hit Vegas, it's M&M/Mars premium line.

They also have a website...

I prefer Dark chocolate my self, Tazo discs, or Callebaut from Amazon.

Albert's Ice Cubes chocolate. It literally melts in your mouth, but it is so sensitive to temperature that it's usually only sold in stores in winter in the US. Lindt Milk Chocolate is a close second.

For the Hershey lovers out there, posting Hershey's is better than Lindt is giving me the same vibe as someone praising their Hipoint over Glock.

Nestle, but good luck actually finding a Nestle milk chocolate bar... all I can find anymore are Crunch bars.

You really need to try Wilbur chocolates.

Made in the USA.

Best chocolate I have had.

Google Wilbur buds.

For a delicious and affordable treat.

I've been buying different brands the last few months trying to find my favorite. I have tried the following:

1. Cailler
2. Cadbury
3. Milka
4. Scharfen Berger
5. Hershey
6. Moser Roth

My two favorite are Cadbury and Milka so far. They taste nearly identical.

Which brand do I still need to try?

Try the Choceur brand from Aldi. Awesome, and way more affordable than the shitty name brands.

Hershey used to be pretty good, 20 years ago. Then they figured out that waxy palm oil is cheaper than the real ingredients.

That disgusting shit is like eating a brown candle now.

Trick question, OP. Milk chocolate is for babies. Men eat dark chocolate, 60% cocoa minimum.

Cadbury is very good if it's made in Europe. The U.S. version is made under license by Hershey and noticeable inferior. Also I like Lindt. Godiva is very good but to pricey for me. I'm sure there a ton of European chocolate that I have not tried that are excellent.

Thirded. Real made in the UK Cadbury is excellent, the waxy shit that Hershey's make under license is an abomination. Also someone mentioned Galaxy from the UK (made by Mars I think) and that's a very very close second.

Real men just chew on the bark of a pine tree and imagine that the dry, acrid taste is pleasant.

I like the Lindt chocolate, especially the dark like 85%. Cadbury always tasted funky to me, like there was something in it throwing the taste off.

But the best milk chocolate is:

Milk chocolate is meh compared to dark, but I like the foil wrapped chocolate Ice Cubes. They are German and I used to get them at Karl Ehmer as a kid. Milka is also OK, but really I'd never buy milk chocolate unless dark wasn't an option.

This!! On our trip to Grand Cayman I found out just how awesome Cadbury really is when its not made by fucking Hershey. Worst part was I just grabbed a bar while in the airport on our way out and didn't find out how great it was until we were back in the states.

I've never heard of some of the brands being mentioned but I'll have to be on the lookout. I love the real Cadbury and we used to get a big gift box of Cadbury and other British candy from my Aunts in England every Christmas. I especially loved the Cadbury Flakes and Crunchie bars and they even started selling them in World Market for a few years. Not sure if it's related but it was pretty close to the time that Hershey bought them that they disappeared from World Market.

I wish I could say Hershey's, since I grew up close enough to the original plant to smell roasting day if the wind was right.

Then they started adding their cheap shit ingredients instead of keeping their classics going. I asked my Mom to send me a bag of minatures when I was in Iraq. When she asked how they were, I said the heat ruined them. Something didn't taste quite right. Turns out, it was when they shipped production to Mexico. All of them tasted like shit, except the Mr. Goodbars, which were still made at the main Hershey plant. The whole reason the Milton Hershey built there was due to the high quality of the milk.

Now, most of it tastes like cat shit. If you go to Chocolate World, I swear, they still have some high-quality stuff made there, Symphony bars and Golden Almond Collection, from what I recall.

Nestlé's White Chocolate and Kinder Chocolate.....both are from Europe. I have seen the Kinder chocolate in the states. Much different chocolate compared to say a Hershey's chocolate bar.

Toblerone is also an excellent chocolate as well.

Other than Lindt, what else is available from Switzerland? I haven't seen any other swiss brands regularly available in the US.

Lindt's milk chocolate Lindor truffles are pretty good. Pop one in your mouth and when the outer shell melts, the truffle filling is like a chocolate explosion.

Dollar General occasionally has Symphony bars and they're still decent. Just be sure to check the expiration date on any food you buy at DG, especially candy.
