White Chocolate is not actually chocolate, it's been proven!
I said this in my last blog, and have been met with some controversy about it. Now, I'm out to PROVE that white chocolate is NOT chocolate.
First of all, do you know what makes chocolate, chocolate? The cocoa bean. That's the main ingredient that gives dark/brown/milk chocolate it's taste, color, and smell. White chocolate does not have this ingredient.
But, why is White chocolate called 'chocolate'?
White chocolate is called chocolate because it is made with cocoa butter (the left over fat and sugar of the cocoa bean, after being prossessed to make chocolate). However, chocolate is considered to be something which has the distinctive smell and taste of the roasted cocoa bean, and white chocolate lacks this characteristic.
So.. technically speaking... White Chocolate isn't chocolate :P

Whatever.............It's still chocolate to me. Oh, and for someone who doesn't like chocolate you sure eat a lot of oreos and little chocolate easter eggs.............
Don't care! White chocolate is disgusting!
I never knew that white chocolate was made from cocao butter, but i always wondered how it could be called chocolate if it's white.
Thank you for clearing up the mystery!
