People act like if they eat it they will die, or something.

It's just low quality sugary chocolate, not the end of the world.

That is an actual thing? I just thought people were being overly dramatic on the internet. But, since I have been eating Hershey's since I was a kid(because it's popular, not because I care for it much), maybe I just have gotten used to that.

Hershey's is #1 for me and I've had many different chocolate and still mainly eat Hershey's most of the time.

I'm sure he thinks people that thinks cilantro has a soapy taste is fake too.

That's vastly overblown, though. People get hung up on the idea of it and kind of ignore the reality of it.

Yes, butyric acid is present in vomit. But it's also in milk and certain types of cheeses and no one ever complains about it there. It's like saying that, because salt is present in human piss, any food with salt in it tastes like piss, so you refuse to eat salt and constantly complain about it.

For that matter, table salt is literally an insanely explosive metal combined with a highly toxic gas, yet we never hesitate to put it on our food. Trying to judge food by breaking it down to the chemical level is always a bit spurious.

The main reason people outside North America don't like American chocolate is because they're not used to it (in the same way Americans tend to complain that European chocolate is too bitter). It's not all that different from how British people and Australians love Marmite while Americans tend to find it disgusting. Taste buds in general are shaped by what you're used to eating.

You'd know right away. I've kind of trained myself to be able to more cilantro without being disgusted by it, but before I did that, it was so fucking strong. Like my friend got me a whole plate of Mongolian food when I younger and just put a tiny bit of cilantro in it to I guess "test" my cilantro soap thing, and I could tell right away.

It's probably because I grew up with it, but I've traveled the world and learned quickly not to buy chocolate / sweets anywhere else - they all taste awful. Europe was pretty bad, but Mexico was the worst.

I wondered about this. I always expect Hershey to be great, since it's a classic American chocolate company, but usually if not always it's terrible instead. Cadbury is so much better.

(interesting... in 1988 Hershey acquired the rights to manufacture Cadbury products in USA, which is something people complain about saying that Hershey products are inferior. but in Canada, Cadbury Canada manufactures or imports Cadbury products. so it's possible Americans here might not notice a difference between the two.)

European chocolate is too bitte

Bitter? You mean creamy and smoother right? I wouldn't describe the taste difference as "more bitter"

Sweeter even, but bitter? If you say so..

It won't kill me, I have no food allergies I am aware of, but I'm not fond of Hershey's. Won't buy it myself, but if someone gives it as a gift I wouldn't start throwing tables over it. Well, not large tables, maybe a small one.

My question is....if that vomit chemical is present in other foods, why does nobody taste vomit when they drink milk? Why is it so pronounced in american chocolate but not other things that also contain butyric acid?

I am not denying people taste vomit, but I am curious to know why they don't taste vomit in other things then if it is also in there.

For real, I cant stand picky eaters. They grew up with their mom just feeding them chicken tendies to shut them up, and then they grow into manchildren who won't eat anything because they still have the tastebuds of a 3 year old
