This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Today, the Mexican Government introduced its new chocolate bar, priced at less than $1USD. Made of 50% cocoa, powdered milk, vanilla. No refined sugar, no artificial flavourings. (files.catbox.moe)

Over a certain percentage, I bite into chocolate and it just sucks all the moisture out of my mouth and is just terrible bitterness. I think 86% was the last one I tried, but even 50% is getting to be too bitter for me. I was always super sensitive to bitter compounds as a kid, though, so that may make sense. I do actually like black coffee of some beans/roasts, but it doesn't have nearly as much bitterness.
