10. If it's plain chocolate, I don't do cheap American chocolate

I mean I'll eat a Snickers or Kit Kat or Twix sometimes, don't get me wrong, but I'd never eat a plain Hershey Bar.

If I'm going to just have a square of chocolate, or something where chocolate is by far the main ingredient, needs to be Ghirardelli, or similar good-quality US chocolate, or something European like Lindt, Suchard, Tobler, etc. Ritter is also great stuff. Ferrera Rocher also makes some good stuff.

So I guess my answer is "yes, I do like them"
