Worms and Bugs Discovered in Chocolates from Dubai

M
Dubai chocolate is such over hyped bullshit anyways. I don’t know why people even buy it.
S
authoritarian ethnostates who use slave labor are so cool let me buy their chocolates
B
I’m still not sure how you get chocolate to taste like human rights violations. Is it… just licorice?
I
I bought it once just to try it and say I had it. It’s ok. Not something I would shell out $16 bucks for again.
W
For real. Kinda tasted like a butterfinger but with a less crunchy texture. Overhyped as hell.
Z
>Overhyped as hell. Sounds like it lives up to the name, then.

I imagine at first when it was a brand new phenomenon and they didn’t have to make so many they might have been really quite nice if you actually went to Dubai and got them freshly made as you had to back then I think mass production and international exporting probably made them cut a few corners here and there to pump them out fast enough
M
I just made it myself. It’s so easy
S
Lemme get tinfoil timmy for a minute…I think its a two parter. 1. Dubai was getting a little too high in the algorithms for some terrible sex crime stuff that could be called Dubai chocolate, if it wasn’t called the Dubai portaporty. 2. I have a feeling with funding from exhibit 1, the growers of a green nut got the same folks that made fiji water and croc shoes a household name on the line and a artificial trend was born after some cocaine fuled white board sessions in a rented hotel meeting room.
R
The costume designer for the movie Idiocracy chose crocs as stupid, ugly shoes. The movie made them famous Feels like proof of concept
D
Is this that Dubai chocolate the youngins are on about?
T
I got some at Christmas, I’m not looking for more. The chocolate was ordinary, the filling I got was tahini and pistachio…
M
Isn’t that what Dubai chocolate… Is?
B
Dubai chocolate from what I have seen is regular chocolate around pistachio creme mixed with phyllo to make it crispy. Not great.
E
👀
H
Dubai chocolate? More like dont buy chocolate.
M
Eh oh!!
B
lmao
S
You pay extra for the extra protein
A
Moth larvae. Shit happens sometimes. Moths are irritating pests.
H
It’s like an metaphor or something, looks fine with a quick glance on the outside, look a little deeper, and it’s rancid just below the surface, just like the country.
P
Those are what gives it that extra ***crunch***
F
Probably made in India
D
They’re not sending their best
D
That’s part of the experience!
S
I’ve seen this in non Dubai chocolates too
C
Directly below this post for me is a pistachio someone got with a worm in it. Must be related
T
Free protein
G
Extra protein
S
Those poor girls:( it’s bad enough what they experience, so this just makes it 10x worse.
T
I found some Dubai chocolate at a store. And took a look out of curiosity. There were two different ones. One made in Turkey, and another in Poland. How the fuck is Dubai chocolate not from Dubai
S
Well, Dubai isn’t really known either for its cacao plantations or for its pistachio fields. It’s just stupid branding to sound exotic
T
Well no shit. It’s the stupidest branding I can think of.
R
I know right? Its almost like people can make other country’s food..
M
Heresy!
T
Yeah, I get that, but then what the fuck makes it Dubai chocolate aside from shitty marketing
B
That’s extra protein
