Well that's the end of that. Once they get used to Lindt they'll never go back to chocolaty American goodness.
Trump: "We'll charge Canada a tariff on European goods and make Mexico pay for it."
MAGA: Yeaaahhhhhhh!!!
The one MAGAtard with half a brain: "Wait, what? That doesn't..." [get's angry glares]... "I mean, Yeaaahhhhhhh!!!"
This may be necessary even if tariffs do not go into effect since many Canadians will be boycotting US produced goods as long as Trump is alive.
I thought it would belong to one of those food industry behemoths but it's actually Independent, headquarters in Switzerland and majorly owned by themselves.
I’m Swiss and my Uncle works for Lindt.
One fun fact about Lindt is that the vast majority of their employees work in France, because it’s cheaper. It’s mostly headquartered in Switzerland to keep the “Swiss Choclate” branding and because it was historically swiss.
I plan on visiting the lindt holy land one day. Like the headquarters, been to the country once already.
Just make sure to follow whatever arbitrary rules the tour has.
You don’t want them to have to stretch or press you.
Wait, is that why Lindt chocolates don't taste the same in the USA?
Not to sound like a shill, but I was surprised when Americans on Reddit would say it was nothing special. I didn’t even think they’d have a separate American product chain.
Over here it’s not the cheapest or best chocolate but it’s probably the best chocolate you can reliably find in any grocery store.
Also. American chocolate isn’t bottom of the barrel for me. I’ll take a Hershey’s white chocolate cookie thing over no name Syrian “chocolate” with RGB bloom and a barely-perceptible gumminess not even a mother could love. When I was a kid, the shops were full of questionable cheap Syrian candy.
We’ve actually had it pretty good in Lebanon pre-2019 when it came to European chocolate and candy. And occasionally if you knew where to shop, American soft drinks. American candy isn’t it, but American liquid candy? I’d be 900 kilos if I didn’t have to pay extortion prices for American Dr. Pepper. The British stuff we sometimes get just isn’t the same.
Edit: I just noticed what community this was in. Oops, was just scrolling through All. Sorry if this is a bit out of place. Good luck Canadians!
If different means like wax and shortening, then yes.
Stop putting milk in your dark chocolate, and I'll start caring.
They do make 100% dark chocolate, it tastes like you would imagine.
it tastes like you would imagine.
Dead inside?
Like a used coffee puck, so yeah, basically
That’s because it’s over roasted. Too dark. It’s the same reason Starbucks uses so much milk and sugar in all their coffee drinks. Extremely dark roasted anything tastes bitter like burnt toast.
If you want more sophisticated, less bitter dark chocolate you need to get lighter roasts made from single source cacao. That’s not a product Lindt cares about offering so you end up having to get it from much smaller chocolate makers.
I love their 90% bars… I buy them by the 15 pack and need to restock them every month.
90% is good, not my favourite but I'll have it every so often!
This. Ive eaten 100% chocolate and its extremely bitter and a very small bite is enough for a very very long time. Its the cream in milk that makes it that good...
Or you know... Plant based milk.
It's not really their business, most consumers ask for dairy milk in their milk chocolate.
There is some very good vegan chocolate out there that isn't Lindt.
...but dark chocolate is not milk chocolate, it's dark chocolate.
This is fantastic news. More of this needs to happen to show that shaved ape what happens when you act without thinking.
They need to bring the dairy-free ones over from Europe!
A quick heads up that some suppliers pause chocolate shipping when it gets hot (and melty) so stock up while it's still cold
