Unpopular Opinion

Are you 6?

Upvoted. Seek help.

Interesting, an actual unpopular opinion! You get an upvoter because I disagree so heartily.

Dark chocolate and orange are amazing together. So are dark cherries and chocolate.

Chocolate covered raisins are the worst thing ever.

i actually like chocolate raspberries because it preserves the raspberries from turning to mush.

Oh, I violently disagree. I find your position to be almost repulsive.

looks at name of sub

…here, have an upvote.

Your argument is invalid because the coca bean is itself the fruiting body of the theobroma cacao; chocolate is a fruit.

Upvote because your opinion is wrong.

That said, the things you described seem like they have a high potential to be underwhelming. I've had versions of almost all of them where the chocolate is cheap, grainy and too sweet.

Fully agree with you actually.

Fuck orange chocolate! Only thing worse is mint chocolate.

People eat chocolate covered banana and nobody bats an eye, but I eat chocolate covered kebab onc...

Upvote for unpopular.

Upvoted because what’s wrong with you, but mang you fit the subreddit well.

Yeah nah that is a wrong opinion. Literally had a chocolate fondue yesterday and it was divine.

As someone else saud seek help please.

Kudos to your truly unpopular opinion. I disagree but wouldn't fight you on it. But what are your thoughts on nuts and caramel? That's a hill I would die on.

Choco and banana. Nothing else matters.

Finally someone else!

I was a strong defender of this position for a long time. There is a Venn diagram with a circle of dairy in the center. It overlaps heavily with chocolate on one side and fruit on the other. But the fruit and chocolate circles should not touch.

Or so I thought. One day a friend was arguing with me about this and she pointed out a banana split, which has all three. Ok so maybe the fruit and chocolate circles barely touch for this one exception but otherwise - say no to chocolate with fruit.

The problem is the ratios. All your examples are basically fruit as the main ingredient with chocolate as the accompanying ingredient. That just means you don't like chocolate on your fruit.

The other way around is better, chocolate with some fruit as accents. One of my favorite chocolates is a flat dark chocolate bar and small cranberry pieces that make the texture feel like a crunch bar, and the cranberry flavor is not strong enough to overpower the chocolate.

OK, I disagree but raise you one more. Chocolate covered popcorn and chocolate covered bacon are treats sent by the gods as the secret food of the initiated in the misteries of taste.

I'm with you.

Raspberries and chocolate? Each brings out the bitterness in the other.

I don't get fruit and chocolate at all, each diminishes the other.

I agree with this one too. This and the nuts post, we're on a roll

Okay but

Cherry Garcia Ice Cream

Assuming you ferment the fruit first, yes.

dark chocolate and clementines is a nice snack, though

90% agree. Chocolate paired with actual fruit sucks, but chocolate with fruit flavoring (e.g. Terry's chocolate orange, chocolate-covered fruit-flavored ganache or nougat, etc.) can sometimes be good.

I am genuinely amazed that you have this opinion, and also that a significant number of other comments do as well.

I cannot even begin to describe how strongly I disagree with this, but I guess there just is a whole section of people who agree...

I... I want to cook for you, make something you've not tried before, show you the light lol.

If you don't mind me asking, can you taste cilantro, or does it just taste like soap to you?

Do you like nutmeg?

I largely agree except one: bananas.

I know it’s not truly chocolate, but still in the realm, I like to make a peanut butter, Nutella, and banana sandwich sometimes.

Yessss!! Hahaha. My whole life people have been trying to convince me that I’m crazy because I don’t like orange chocolate. (Not even the actual fruit, just the flavour in chocolate.)

I agree with this wholly. I love fruits. I love chocolate. But I don’t want them together.

I like chocolate with cheese, or with salt. Not really a fan of super sweet chocolate, 90%+ dark for me.

I totally agree, I'm like that Squidward setting up a chair meme when I see a chocolate bar. And immediately pack up if it has any kind of fruits in it.

Or do you feel about chocolate oranges, or candied orange dipped in chocolate?

I might not be able to be friends with you depending on the answer.

I'll take fruits on pizza over fruits in chocolate any day.

Do you know, I've just kind of accepted it my whole life, despite never really caring for it. I'll enjoy chocolate and caramel, or chocolate ice cream with stuff in it, or ice cream with chocolate pieces. Even chocolate truffles with different creme fillings. And I love yogurt covered raisins!

So it's not a general aversion to things in chocolate, for me. Fruit is definitely always better on its own.

I completely agree with very few exceptions

Banana and chocolate is a good combo because bananas are so "mild" in sweetness

Also down with chocolate-covered raisins. Not grapes, though

But I can't think of a single other fruit I like with chocolate. I will eat the chocolate off a chocolate-colored strawberry and eat the strawberry alone

I think I mostly agree with this. Not bad.
