This time they've really done it. The Belgians, I mean. Their latest contribution to global gourmet culture is going to go down in history.

Fantastic #vegan chocolate that does not taste like vegan chocolate and is also not mouth puckeringly bitter.

Bravo #Leonidas

Mind you, 7 euros for a 100g bar so at least I'm not going to be buying it too often...

@Ruth_Mottram I thought dark chocolate was vegan by default... what did I miss?

@tfardet @Ruth_Mottram apparently dark bakers chocolate is vegan by default, but some manufacturers still add milk bits (fats, solids, cream, lactose, whey) to without calling something "milk chocolate".

And there's oat/ soy/ coconut/ alternatives for those non-chocolatey bits in the mixture.

@ellie I see, thanks!

Must be country dependent, I don't think that's a big thing in France (at least I don't think I encountered it)

@tfardet Me too. Dark chocolate should by definition always be vegan.

@Ruth_Mottram Oh my goodness, the size of each piece... Do they need a danish subsidiary? 😀
