My Favorite Milk Chocolate

I just love milk chocolate. It's not too sweet like white chocolate (although, frankly, that's my second most favorite), but not that bitter, like dark chocolate. Sure, it might not exactly be "the real thing," but I'm fine with that.


My favorite milk chocolate has to be Chokladljus, from IKEA. This little baby is just rich enough to warrant enough of that umami feeling in your mouth, but not too much to leave lingering, weird texture in your mouth like Hershey sometimes does. The "bite" is just right, too--and let's not forget the taste. Chokladljus warrants just enough sweetness to quickly give you that savory sensation in your mouth.

I had the opportunity to go to IKEA the other week, and I got three bars. I'm eating my first today--and though I was convinced I could restrain myself, it's apparent that I can't. Chocolate and Big Bang Theory--a bit of physics comedy and a nightly indulgence. It feels just right.
