I don't remember what brand of chocolate was the best I've ever eaten, but I remember what part of her body it was on.

IIRC, whatever we brought back from Fassbender & Rausch in Berlin (https://goo.gl/maps/X4nfPaVRCsjN1HJp9) was really excellent.

Heh, whereas my wife (who, to be fair, immigrated from Eastern Europe) loves dark chocolate and finds milk chocolate too bland.

Honestly, I didn't appreciate dark chocolate until I was in my thirties. I didn't realize it works best in small bites. My wife received a box of Spartak (spelling?) dark chocolates as a gift, and we ignored it for a few days. It turns out, they were excellent....literally changed both of our minds about chocolate.

Ghirardelli, but I'm not a chocolate aficionado or anything.

Lindt from Belgium is excellent.

Is there any way to tell which ones are actually from Belgium? I've always assumed the ones in my area are from the nearby New Hampshire factory.

I would say Milky Way Midnight but it has dark chocolate.

For pure milk chocolate, I like Dove. Hershey's is better than Nestle's. In fact, I don't know how long it's been since I've seen a plain old Nestle's milk chocolate bar. They used to packaged like Nestle's Crunch bars, but with red instead of blue.

I used to work for Chickasaw casinos, and the Chickasaws also own a chocolate company called Bedré (https://bedrechocolates.com/) (their factory is in Murray County right off I-35). The casinos used to just hand it out to the patrons for free (I heard it was because Bedré didn't do that well financially so the casinos would buy up vast quantities of chocolate to make them appear solvent, but I don't know if that's true or not). It's really good chocolate, though, so I used to snag handfuls of it whenever I had the chance.

If it is imported, the package is labeled with the country of origin.  Otherwise it is a domestic product.

There is also a small shop, Commodore, in Newburgh NY which makes their very own chocolates.  They are good.
