yes it is true! i can't eat it without a straight face and a bottle of water. it's healthier though!

yes it's true. pure chocolate is 100% cacao bean, which is insanly bitter. dark chocolates are typically 60% cacao and milk chocolates are 10-20% cacao. white chocolate has no cacao and is not chocolate at all.

yes very bitter.

yes its true, in ancient times hot chocolate used to be spicy because in order to make it taste better they added hot peppers then change hot chocolate to make it sweet not spicy because just chocolate alone tastes bad

oh yeah, totally. Try any dark chocolate and you'll see that. I've had vegan chocolate which is very bitter, but for some strange reason I kind of like it....

absolutely
