Nesquik or Hershey's syrup? I personally prefer the taste of Nesquik, but the little chunks that don't dissolve are annoying.

syrup, because I can't have the powder anymore.

However in the winter I do enjoy hot cocoa with actual cocoa powder, but thats not what you asked is it?

I remember Nesquik had this oreo kind of mix.. I loved that.

But I'll have to go with the syrup.

I'm in the mood for strawberry milk.. hmm..

*head implodes*

*instantly grows back*

...Hmm. Well, as for me, I like powder the most. When you measure it properly, it mixes completely with the milk, and you get more chocolate taste per ounce than you do with syrup.

Assuming you're talking about cold, ready mixed chocolate milk. I like Avonmore, it's an Irish brand.

yeuch chocolate milk = t3h gross. If you want milk, drink milk. If you want chocolate, eat chocolate. Or melt it and then drink that. But chocolate milk just adulterates both concepts and makes them both look bad.

I've always heard that all forms of American chocolate should be avoided as it's, er, less than satisfactory in the taste department.

Choq FTW. It actually tastes like chocolate unlike nesquick.

I'm not fond of the chocolate found in most American chocolate bars. For just plain chocolate I like Godiva okay. Hershey's Special Dark isn't bad.

Regular Ovaltine, sure, but their Rich Chocolate stuff is tops.

Possibly. I also hate the commercials. "More Ovaltine please" "OH, well I better make some more!" RAWR! I want to stab them.


The commercials, not the people. I only want to kick the people.

Solid chocolate contains milk anyway so complaining about it is stupid.

I've had the Hershey's "chocolate" (read: cardboard) bar.

My favourite American chocolate is Ghirardelli (for example, this (http://www.ghirardelli.com/products/chocbars_intense_twilight.aspx)) and Scharffen Berger (http://www.scharffenberger.com/prodinfo.asp?number=3+OZ). Yummy! :)

Ghirardelli is excellent, though I find that Ritter Sport tastes better. They're of the same quality, really; it's just that the latter is more pleasing to me.

It's all about personal preference.

what you need is the nesquick syrup. delicious, usually costs like 10 cents less than hershey's, and comes in a better container.

You heard right. hey (unsuccessfully) tried to leak that shit into the Aussie confectionery market. It was terrible. Not just the chocolate, all of their confectionery tastes like sugared plastic. But the chocolate was definitely the worst. Hershey should be taken into a paddock and shot.

American chocolate either tastes like shit, or it's just what we have, but a level down. Like Baby Ruth bars, they're just Picnics without nuts.

I don't know Moove, but BigM has been around since before I was a kid (and I'm in my 30s). Maybe Moove is a NSW thing & BigM a Vic thing?

I'm not certain about Nesquik, but I picked Hershey's, as it is fat free (and I've actually had it).

As for American chocolate, I agree that foreign chocolate is slightly better, but not good enough to warrant the vast increase in price, except for once in a great while.

I like it really old school - chocolate malted milk. The only brand I've seen the last years has been this stuff called 'Milo' - and no matter how hard your stir it, not only will there still be unmixed bits - but the unmixed bits crunch most satisfyingly when you bite down on 'em.

Yum yum yum.

Neither nor. When I want a chocolate milk, I usually boil some water, mix it with some real cocoa, add some (cane) sugar, heat some milk, and add while stirring.

Now that is mighty tasty! http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y223/GermanNightmare/KaffePC.gif
