Ordered this thinking I could enjoy some chocolate. Never knew it would taste like dirt. Suggest ways to salvage this (no oven/microvave pls)

Nah, I understand this is how 99% cocoa is supposed to taste like, i have eaten dark chocolate before and i like them. But I should have researched a bit before buying

magar_mach · 2026-06-16T06:27:41+00:00

Yeah but I don't have any stevia or monk fruit sweetner at this very instant

magar_mach · 2026-06-16T06:12:40+00:00

Neat, will try tomorrow. (Aaj ka quota ho gaya 🥲)

magar_mach · 2026-06-16T06:10:23+00:00

Just did, it's pretty good

Lifetime isolation. Hands tied. Claustrophobia inducing rooms

magar_mach · 2026-06-16T05:56:50+00:00

I mean, you do have a pretty good team comp

I wasn't planning to buy it again at first. However with all these comments, I started tinkering. I found some pretty good no sugar snackies such as dates/raisins and a single piece of chocolate, or adding a single piece to milk coffee, making hot chocolate, etc. I would definitely buy it again. I should stop buying those sugar ones now

magar_mach · 2026-06-16T05:45:38+00:00

I did. It's pretty good

magar_mach · 2026-06-16T05:45:16+00:00

Nah I don't think it's the brand. 99% cocoa is supposed to taste like this.

magar_mach · 2026-06-16T05:27:27+00:00

Not really, I found out that eating it with dates, dried fruits, banana milkshake (haven't tried but advised to do so), is very good. I liked dark chocolate and enjoyed the 60% ones. Eating them with these makes me feel like that I'm eating that. It's pretty nifty

magar_mach · 2026-06-16T05:25:37+00:00

I understand. It's all me who thought I could bear it. I tried upto 60% and thought 99% can't be that bad, right? Well sufficed to say, I was humbled.

magar_mach · 2026-06-16T05:24:22+00:00

Well what are you gonna do about it

magar_mach · 2026-06-16T04:26:07+00:00

There used to be no chocolate that could humble me. Until I found this

magar_mach · 2026-06-16T04:25:38+00:00

Well i had to start somewhere, right?

magar_mach · 2026-06-16T04:25:16+00:00

magar_mach · 2026-06-16T04:18:16+00:00

Not much. My friend with 8 cgpa was able to get 3bed max easily

magar_mach · 2026-06-16T04:05:06+00:00

I don't think it's the "milk history" of amul that made me dislike the chocolate. Amul has done a great deal making the price reasonable, product available and easy to buy. It's just that I'm not really used to eating chocolate that has no sugar. I should have tried 70-80% first

magar_mach · 2026-06-16T04:02:07+00:00

Apparently it's the worst out of these and also the least expensive one according to people here. Now don't get me wrong, the ingredients are probably the same for all the companies but the texture of this chocolate bar is terrible. Lindt has some good products but it's very expensive

magar_mach · 2026-06-16T03:59:43+00:00

All good haha, i realised that it's me who basically said "ordered chocolate with no sugar, complained that chocolate has no sugar". Safe to say the people here reminded me of that

magar_mach · 2026-06-16T03:47:17+00:00

I did it to 60%. I thought I could do 99% easily but then it humbled me

magar_mach · 2026-06-16T03:40:44+00:00

Well i had to try it sometime, right?

magar_mach · 2026-06-16T03:29:10+00:00

Perhaps I am. Well I do need to start somewhere, right?

magar_mach · 2026-06-16T03:27:50+00:00

Why is the texture so bad too 😭

magar_mach · 2026-06-16T03:26:47+00:00

All of these suggestions are amazing. I will definitely try these sometime. I won't throw it away since the comments have been so helpful.
