        I don't have a clear favourite, which is why on the odd occasion I decide to buy a chocolate bar, it takes me forever to decide which one to get! When I was a kid I usually bought Mr. Big (maybe this is sold in Canada only?). It was the biggest standard chocolate bar, and I wanted to get my moneys worth.

          We have Belgian chocolatiers here in America too, you know.

          America has everything from around the world.

          You should try Mexican chocolate for a totally different experience...I'm not saying is better or worse...but it's totally different type of chocolate making.

          Mexican chocolate is not as sweet nor buttery...and it's often water-based as opposed to milk. Mexican chocolate can be spicey as well.

          They love their chocolate mostly in hot drinks (Aztec style) and in their cuisine.

          Mexicans use it for its main national dish...mole poblano (mostly with turkey and other poultry)...




          It's made from up to 20 different spices...but chocolate is one of the main ingredients.

          If you ever visit Mexico...especially in the Puebla region...try mole poblano...you are gonna love it.

            But as far as pure chocolate to enjoy as a dessert...then I have to agree with Meule...Belgian chocolate is the best.

                Ya know Hec, I always thought the granny on there looked like Benny Hill in drag.



                That's actually a very famous Mexican actress...her name was Sara Garcia (much older than Benny Hill)...




                She was always cast as the "granny"...lol.

                Wow...I just realized that Nestle now owns Chocolate Abuelita, lol.

                      Mole in Spanish is pronounced as in...Mmm...then olé...like in the bullfights.

                      Mmm...olé.

                          A piece of See's Candy.

                          That's one American chocolate company that can give Belgian chocolate a good run for the money.

                            See's chocolates are great...I also like San Francisco-based Ghirardelli chocolates...and we also have quite a few Belgium-founded Godiva chocolate locations as well.

                                I am not much of a chocolate eater,..it is usually way to sweet for me. When I do buy a candy bar, I almost always grab a Baby Ruth.

                                However, when I hit the local candy store, I tend to go more for candy cigarettes, candy necklaces, button candy and the like.
