Chocolate is popular almost everywhere. But tastes vary depending on the continent. While some regions like their chocolate sugary sweet, others prefer more fruity or nutty notes.
Calling it fake is a bit cynical, although I understand where you’re coming from. They just pad it with fillings or other stuff to reduce the chocolate content and presumably increase the profit margin. Also possibly to distinguish from other brands. Which isn’t to say that chocolate with a higher cocoa content doesn’t taste better. It does and I prefer a higher dose of cocoa myself too.
Peanut butter is the same. I started eating 100% peanut spread instead of peanut butter. It’s so good. Now whenever I get regular peanut butter, it barely tastes like peanut to me.
Fun fact, a German company has been working on synthetic chocolate for a while now. Apparently it is indistinguishable from real chocolate. Haven’t tasted it myself though.
My friend, you seem to have some very strange misunderstandings padded with your own self-satisfied explanations.
Proper peanut butter is simply roasted unsalted peanuts crushed into a paste. Anything beyond that you’re getting into tampering and “chalk in milk” territory.
If you purchase spread, what you are getting is peanuts where the natural peanut oil has been separated and reserved, and replaced with inferior soybean oil.
Because it’s fake. Or poison. Like most american food.
