American chocolate

I've had good american chocolate, some really good cheese in Wisconsin, but your beer: still a work in progress.:)

Truth be told, I've had a couple of good american beers, but for a nation that size, with so many beer bellies evident, it should be the valhalla of beer making.

Thats odd. I'd have been prepared to concede on the cheese. The government makes us pastuerize all the milk before you can make cheese. That tends to limit the amount of flavor you can achieve. But beer?

I like two microbrews. Boulevard out of Kansas City and Fat Tire from Colorado.
 
I have found more evidence online that Hershey's uses sour milk to intentionally make its milk chocolate taste that way. That being the case, I have more respect for it since they're creating different animal so to speak.

World's Finest Chocolate is the best run of the mill in American chocolate.

Ever had cheese in Wisconsin? It's pretty good.
 
are they american? well i never. they taste alright.

Nah of course they're not American, Mars and Snickers (or the chocolate bar formerly known as Marathon) are both from England:

I have to confess I didn't know this myself, but my curiosity was peeked because I used to have an old Penguin copy of a George Orwell novel (Burmese Days?), that had been published during WWII and it had an Advert for Mars in it.

Turns out Mars comes from Slough. Which kind of proves that American chocolate is shit. If the most popular chocolate in America comes from Slough the domestic competition can't be that hot.
 
I have no idea what brand it was, but today I bought some 68% cocoa with green tea (2%), the rest ... cane juice (:eek:!) for the cast of my show. It was mmm mmm mmm.
