    Luxury brands

    .

    Lindt

    lol.

    *Is Lindt actually considered a luxury? What they manufacture is more akin to overrated mass-produced mid-tier chocholate.

      There’s a lot of “chocolate” in the US that doesn’t qualify as chocolate in sane countries because it has too much wax or other additives in it. US “chocolate” bar in Canada has to be called a “candy” bar.
      Same way their “milk” has too much other garbage in it to qualify as “milk” in Canada.

      Lindt, otoh, is /actual/ chocolate. So it’s seen as luxurious.

      At least in the US they are some of the best chocolate you can regularly find. We don’t have a lot of good options easily accessible.

          Honestly a lot of people in this thread clearly don’t get out much. There’s plenty of high enr boutique chocolatiers in the US, they just aren’t on the shelves at Walmart.
