American chocolate always tastes like that cheap stuff we used to get in advent calendars. Maybe I have been trying the wrong stuff you can’t beat Swiss chocolate.
Ah she finally sees the light (or tastes the chocolate!) Fortunately we are getting more American chocolate makers who know how to do it right. Sadly, you usually have to go to their stores to get the good stuff!
It doesn’t matter where it comes from, chocolate can be good or bad or in-between. I’ve had excellent American chocolate and less-that-great Belgian chocolate. But in American we tend to import the good stuff over the not-so-good. (Lindt Chile!)

Most American candy companies do still make their candies here in the US. Not everything is made in China, thank goodness.
