        I think it gets tricky trying to support multiple causes. If you’ve watched the Good Place you probably know what I’m talking about, but if you try to do everything perfectly all the time, then you’re just going to be miserable agonizing over every decision. I’m starting to think that it may be better to focus on causes that are higher priority to you and do what you reasonably can for lower priority causes where you have the bandwidth for.

    Feodora Edelbitter Sahne (IDK what the international name is) is really good if you like higher cocoa content (it’s milk chocolate with 50% cocoa IIRC). The company seems to be Danish.

    Also Tony’s Chocolonely, it’s fairtrade and from the Netherlands. Love the caramel one.

    When my father was young, he used to live close to a chocolate factory. Built during communism, privately owned by a local company following the collapse. I looked it up out of curiosity.

    It’s now owned by fucking Nestlé.

    Makes me wonder if there’s an EU manufacturer of shaped charges.

      Sorry, but no. There are lots of European chocolate makers to choose from, that make chocolate that actually has the chocolate taste.

        Definitely not less chocolatey than OP’s Prinzen Black and White or Corny bar. And it’s been a while, but I’m pretty sure it beats Ritter Sport Alpenmilch, too.

    What’s the actual Snickers replacement? That one doesn’t look like it tastes similarly and my SO is addicted.

        And I swear they taste the same but according to my SO they are a little bit different. I’ll give it some effort to see if they tolerate alternatives, thanks!

          Maybe it’s bias. Try buying a couple different brands from different stores and do a blind test on your SO. Unwrap them and have them test and see if they can tell them apart and ask which one is the best.

    Ritter is absolutely amazing, so long as there’s no marzipan. Tried one with marzipan once, my first experience with marzipan, and I absolutely hated the marzipan. It’s one of the few food related things I absolutely hate the taste of. Otherwise, they are perfectly acceptable to me.

    Nah, Oreo’s are great. I don’t eat any candy bar because they are all trash in America, but no matter if the other brands are made of cocoa blessed by the smoothest chocolate goddess in Ghana and mixed by the deftest elves in Switzerland, Oreo is better.
