An American couple have issued their verdict on chocolate after trying it for the first time, and compared it to a classic US brand. Brianna Sky Morton and her partner relocated from the US to the UK and been spending much of their time tucking into classic British foods to see if they are worth the hype.
Recently, after hearing Brits rave about Cadbury chocolate, they decided to conduct a taste test to see if it beats America's chocolate. When it comes to food, us Brits don't necessarily have the best reputation. But one thing tourists often love trying while in the UK is our snacks.
Brianna has been sharing their honest reviews of British food on her page since relocating, and her review of one of the nation's favourite chocolate brands has got people talking.
Cadbury chocolate tends to offer a richer, smoother flavour due to the high cocoa content, while Hershey's is known for its lighter, sweeter taste as a result of the butyric acid used. Both chocolate companies have a rich history and play a significant role in the chocolate industry.
Brianna and her partner tried the Hershey's chocolate bar first, after which she said: "I love Hershey's," however after tucking into a Cadbury's bar, the pair were left stunned.

"Wow," Brianna said - and her partner totally agreed. Brianna added: "That is amazing. This blows Hershey's out of the water. Cadbury, oh my goodness." She insisted there is "no going back" to American chocolate after trying the British treat, which has been around since 1824.
One commented: "We don’t do everything better in England but biscuits and chocolate are good for sure!"
"Cadbury is real chocolate," insisted another. One other said: "Nobody does chocolate like UK and France in my opinion. Cadbury rocks." "UK chocolate will always be better than USA chocolate!," agreed one other.
One other said: "First time I tried Hershey’s I felt so bad for Americans! You guys don’t know what chocolate is until you come to Europe!! British chocolate is not even considered good compared to Belgian chocolate!"
One other Brit shared their thoughts, and wrote: "Cadbury used to be the UK favourite. Taste slightly changed when the sugar tax was introduced, which led people to criticise its quality. Then Kraft absolutely ruined it. It now tastes cheap and leaves an unpleasant aftertaste. I personally haven't purchased it for more than a year now, and will never again."
Suggesting what to try next, another commented: "Wait till they get a chocolate orange down them, lives will be changed."
"Try a Ripple or a Twirl," suggested one other. Another agreed and noted: "And they haven't even had a Flake yet. Or a Ripple. Life changing."
