This statement is just as silly as the OP's. There are good American
chocolates. There are bad American chocolates. Same thing holds true in
Europe.

Some inquiring mind got me started, Sorry if I missed his
handle but this is part at least of the answer to his
query.

Sharfen-Berger makes several varieties but some are only
for the hard core cocoa fans like the niblet bar with cocoa
beans in small pieces included.

Giradelli makes some adequate chocolate bars and it
is in nearly all larger super markets. Their unsweetened
cocoa is very good and economically priced.

Guittard also makes some very fine chocolate bars.
These are harder to find.

See's makes some very delicious chocolates and other
candies if they are in your neighborhood,

Hershey's is what I started out with and it makes the
worst cocoa powder except for Kroger's sold in Ralphs.
Hershey chocolate bars are below mediocre and even worse
than that were the bars supplied in field rations.

First 3 companies are in the San Francisco Bay Area and
See's is a California institution since the 1940s.

If you want to know more about the Hershey company just
look online.
