Does "extra rich milk chocolate" mean there's more milk or more chocolate?!


Question: Does "extra rich milk chocolate" mean there's more milk or more chocolate!?
I just don't get it!. If there's more chocolate, then it would be more like a dark chocolate, but milk chocolate lovers usually don't like dark chocolate!. But, if it's more milk, then wouldn't that weaken the overall flavour, making it less rich!?

This one's really confusing!.

Any help!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
In the parlance of the marketing types ,generaly "extra rich" means that it has more fat ,but in the case of chocolate milk,for instance,they may have added a n ingredient called "maltodextrin"or any one of a number of "gums" which are just fiber compounds that make the' mouth feel ' seem richerWww@FoodAQ@Com

It's just marketing speak!.

After all, which sounds better!? "Chocloate milk" or "Extra rich chocolate milk"!?

Maybe the "extra rich" part comes from them using some cream along with plain milk, but somehow I doubt it!.

Ignore the front label, and just look at the ingredient list!. It wouldn't surprise me if this "extra rich chocolate milk" didn't actually contain any chocolate at all!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Rich refers to the fat content!. The higher the fat content the richer the product!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

it's more chocolate and milk and dark chocolate are totally differentWww@FoodAQ@Com

Higher FAT content!. More chocolate does not make DARK chocolate!Www@FoodAQ@Com

More milk!. Milk gives chocolate its rich creamy taste!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

no but it means it taste more choclaty and milky but it is the same amountWww@FoodAQ@Com
