Idk, I prefer hotel chocolat but it was just one of the first shops that came to mind, ive only been there a couple times and mostly it was because I was walking through it as a cut through to get to the tesco on the other side
There’s a lot of “chocolate” in the US that doesn’t qualify as chocolate in sane countries because it has too much wax or other additives in it. US “chocolate” bar in Canada has to be called a “candy” bar.
Same way their “milk” has too much other garbage in it to qualify as “milk” in Canada.
Lindt, otoh, is /actual/ chocolate. So it’s seen as luxurious.
Honestly a lot of people in this thread clearly don’t get out much. There’s plenty of high enr boutique chocolatiers in the US, they just aren’t on the shelves at Walmart.

lol.
*Is Lindt actually considered a luxury? What they manufacture is more akin to overrated mass-produced mid-tier chocholate.

At least in the US they are some of the best chocolate you can regularly find. We don’t have a lot of good options easily accessible.
My sincere condolences.
Can’t imagine being stuck with such awful chocholates.

Seriously, it’s been a while since I’ve been to a Walmart, but I bet there’s plenty of decent options even there. Everywhere has Ghirardelli, at least
