What has happened to chocolate?

I haven’t eaten popular brands of chocolate for years because they all started adding palm oil to their ingredients, but I still missed the unique taste of Cadbury’s and Milky Bar.

Anyway this Christmas someone gave us a box of Quality Street and I decided to eat one - the green triangle - but it tasted absolutely rank!
And today I noticed a bar of Milky Bar doesn’t have palm oil (maybe changed) so I thought I’d treat myself to memory lane. It’s disgusting. Not that yummy moreish flavour of years ago. Or have my taste buds changed?

YABU - it still tastes the same
YANBU - chocolate is not what it used to be and is full of cheap ingredients

Just had a fudge from a quality street box and it tasted of NOTHING.

Just checked the results. This whole time when it said “you have one vote” I thought it meant only one person had bothered voting 🤣 so pleased to see 500+ people agree that mainstream chocolate is SHITE. Are you listening, Cadbury’s marketing team?
