The flavor and the texture are so much better than those bitter dark chocolate bars.
Are saltine crackers your favorite potato chips?
I’d honestly go a different direction with the burn like white chocolate is to chocolate what sweet potato chips are to potato chips.
If we were to figure out where saltine crackers relate to potato chips in reference to chocolate or general sweets I’d say if potato chips are milk chocolate Hershey’s then saltine crackers are toffee.
Sweet potato chips are good though…
I hate sweet potatoes though
Out of curiosity, how do you feel about carrots (cooked and uncooked separately), and melons like honeydew and cantaloupe?
Asking because I dislike all of those (other than raw carrots) and wonder if it’s because they are all very high in vitamin A. I once overloaded from a single (extra strong) vitamin A supplement and wonder if I have some gene that increases my vitamin A intake or something.

Let me try to change your mind…
Take 2 pounds of cream cheese, float the foil packs in warm water for 10-15 min. Drop the cheese into a bowl with 1.5 cups of sugar and hit it with a mixer until it’s nice and smooth.
Add 3/4 cup Dutch processed cocoa powder. Dutch processing reduces the acidity and makes it darker and smoother.
5 eggs, 2 tablespoons of vanilla, then the secret ingredients, 1/4 cup of Grand Marnier and 2 teaspoons of orange extract.
Mix all that up until it’s smooth again, then add an entire 10 oz. bag of miniature chocolate chips. Important you use mini chips because full size chips won’t melt all the way and leave a weird texture.
Now, prep the pan, take a 9" springform pan and spray it with non-stick spray. Pop in 1/4 cup MORE Dutch processed cocoa powder and swirl it all around so it coats all the surfaces. This is going to bake into a dark chocolate crust.
Pour in the batter and bake at 200°F for EIGHT HOURS. I put it in the oven, go to bed and set an alarm. In the morning, your whole house will smell like chocolate and oranges.
Now, the worst part, it has to chill. You can’t just eat it, it’s pudding right now. So step 1, let it sit on a wire rack until it’s room temp. 2 to 4 hours.
Put a plate on top, flip it over, and remove the springform pan. Put the cake in the refrigerator and chill another 2 to 4 hours.
When the cake is chilled, put another plate on top, flip it right side up, decorate, slice, and serve. I like topping it with some little candied oranges.
Don’t do this if you dislike the orange/chocolate combination. I really dislike that, I don’t know why. I don’t like dark chocolate, prefer milk chocolate, but I like oranges. Putting them together will make me throw it away.
But it looks like a good recipe for those who do like the combo!
Milk Chocolate > White Chocolate > Dark Chocolate.
Milk chocolate is the best of chocolates when there are no extra additives on it’s own.
Dark Chocolate as much as I hate it, IS better than white chocolate on it’s own.
White chocolate without any sort of flavor enhancers is just so damn bland. However, it’s just like eating salt on it’s own. Gross by itself, but delicious with something else to go with it. White chocolate is a catalyst. Milk Chocolate is a treat. Dark Chocolate goes in the trash. I’ll begrudgingly eat it if I have no other better chocolate around lol.
The only people I’ve ever seen like dark chocolate are people who hate themselves, take scalding hot showers with the heat of a thousand suns, and enjoy starting their day with black coffee. AKA, people who had no self esteem as a teenager until they forced adult habits on themselves before they were ready rather than admitting they like ‘childish’ stuff. Cultural masculinity is so weird.

Tell me you only buy low-quality confections without telling me you only buy low-quality confections.

Then here’s the trick: only eat a small piece at a time, like 1 square inch. Savor it. Don’t immediately follow it with anything. Let the flavor completely leave your mouth on its own before you have anything else.
I actually agree with you. Chocolate is great, but you never know heaven till you had white chocolate.
White chocolate literally just tastes like sugar and fat. And “sour”??? What dark chocolate are you eating? This one actually pissed me off fr. Truly unpopular opinion.
My guess is they’re American and damaged by Hershey’s puke
White chocolate shouldn’t even be called chocolate.
white chocolate is made with cocoa butter
You have the palate of a child
True. In fact all chocolate is for children. Real adults appreciate the complex flavors and harsh bitterness of dirt which reminds them of their bitter and complex adult selves.
As a Belgian I consider myself a bit of an ambassador on chocolate and after discussing this with all my fellow countrymen we came to the unanimous conclusion that you are wrong. Please apologize and remove this post.
Going off of the comments already, I would say that this is a truly unpopular opinion. Well done, OP!
My unpopular opinion might be that dark chocolate is gross
