    Actually! Truffles remain expensive because they're difficult to mass produce. The recent proliferation of easily accessible truffle-based foods uses truffle oil which barely contains truffle if at all. Rather, they figured out the molecule (2,4-dithiapentane) that gives white truffles their signature flavor/smell and use that.

      @bionodroid547 2 месяца назад +1

      False, American products labeled as “chocolate” need at least 10% cacao. You can argue a higher percentage is better, but you’d be wrong because the quality of a candy comes down to the experience it provides. In many cases I might prefer hersheys over a European chocolate for the mouthfeel, versatility, price, taste, etc, you might prefer a Cadbury or a Milka but we all have preferences.

  • @Larper64
    @Larper64 4 месяца назад +86

    My major problem with Brennan's take is that the chocolate bars usually have their weight listed on them, and the Crunch bar usually has a comparable weight to its solid bar competition and thus while rice replaces some of the chocolate, it also adds to the texture of the bar which makes up for the minute chocolate displacement by the rice. With the weights being comparable, it means that the air of the rice only lifts up, but doesn't replace the chocolate.

      Similar weight because AIR(rice) has weight. Like air is heavy! I agree it's a very minimal amount of chocolate replaced by "air" though. Now potato chip bags...THATS air!
