    The first statement is actully true though, there is more sugar in milk chocolate than chocolate. the others are all obviously incorrect, there is more pickles, more chicken etc.

      It’s not true. You can like a product without liking all of its ingredients in their more pure form. I like bread, but I’m not a fan of choking down handfuls of flour or yeast.

        You’re missing out, but whatever. More for the rest of us!

      In cooking, the result is greater than the sum of its parts, and ingredients strength matters more than raw volume. Here’s a more direct example. You probably don’t enjoy chugging raw vanilla extract, and vanilla extract is highly concentrated in a small volume. Just because you don’t like the concentrated form and it makes up a small volume in recipes, doesn’t mean you don’t like vanilla.

            i don’t understand your point. i simply pointed out that there is indeed more sugar in milk choc than chocolate. i don’t think anyone can deny sugar isn’t the first and most dominating flavour of milk chocolate. sure it hasa choc after-taste. The other examples were silly because they all referenced things that didn’t have the dominant flavour or indeed the dominant ingredient they were attempting to mock.

            Why you and apparently 19 others are butt hurt about the fact milk choc is mostly sugar both ingredient wise and flavour wise is frankly bizarre to me.
