[UK] 11. Foreign chocolate is too sweet? 海外のチョコレートは甘すぎ?

“Foreign chocolate is too sweet.” That’s what many Japanese people have told me. When It sounds kind of strange to me because chocolate is supposed to be sweet. When they told me that they tried my favourite chocolate, Cadbury’s chocolate, I wasn’t expecting them to append “it was too sweet though.”

But in Japan, “bitter chocolate”(ビターチョコ) is popular. Bitter chocolate is also known as “unsweetened” or “baking/cooking” chocolate. The first time I ate bitter chocolate as a snack was in Japan. I can’t imagine eating baking chocolate in the UK and enjoying it. I would feel like something is missing. Anyway, it was strange to me at first but I got used to it and now I enjoy it too.

  1. Do you like chocolate or other sweet things? How much do you eat?
  2. Do you think Japan’s chocolate is not sweet enough, too sweet, or just right?
  3. How about foreign chocolate? Do you have any favorites?
  4. Do you think it’s fine to eat chocolate regularly?
  5. When do you receive or give chocolate as a present?
