When I went to Belgium, I stayed there for about 5 days and I had a box of chocolate everyday from each famous chocolatier. It was divine!

This video reminded me of my days working at Leonidas in Toronto. My boss was Belgian and she spoke several languages, which amazed me because I could hardly speak two languages! After trying Belgian chocolate, I realized how crappy Hershey bars were.

That sounds like a delicious but dangerous job… I don’t think I could be around those ‘manon blancs’ all day without going home with indigestion. 😄 I already find it tough to simply walk through a certain shopping street here in Antwerp, where just about every other house is a chocolate store.

I am really loving these (newly discovered) DW Food videos!! Absolutely fantastic to have found this channel!!! Eine großen danke!! I had the pleasure to work in my old company's Brussel's office for two weeks, twice. As an American, this was so great and I loved the daily chocolate boxes that were always kept full by the office staff. Unlimited exquisite fine dark chocolate just sitting out, for the taking. LOVED working there! :-)

How did they first introduce (and now highly celebrated) chocolate culture to Belgian and other European countries, knowing the fact that Chocolate tree is not native to the region? I think they share the similiar history to the coffee bean and European coffee culture

@pascalpoussin1209 2 года назад

Intéressant : Blonndeel informe que le chocolat c'est très simple, pas compliqué. Van Vender informe qu'il y a peut-être un secret en Belgique... Conclusion : la Belgique c'est créé un nom dans le monde du chocolat par la qualité de ses confiseurs et surtout par son histoire coloniale et sanguinaire en Afrique qui lui a donné un avantage sur le marché.

@doflamingo8 2 года назад

Le Congo n'a jamais été un fournisseur important de cacao. Historiquement la majorité venait d'Amérique du Sud avant d'être acclimaté en Afrique mais pas au Congo. La grande majorité du Cacao venait tout comme aujourd'hui de la côte Sud de l'Afrique de l'Ouest notamment Côte d'Ivoire et Ghana. Cette région était d'ailleurs autrefois appelée "Côte de l'or" par les occidentaux. D'où le nom de la fameuse marque Belge de chocolat côte d'or :) Le chocolat belge n'a que peu à voir avec le Congo et les crimes et exactions réalisés durant la période coloniale contrairement au caoutchouc par exemple.

I highly respect both the Swiss and Belgians, but the best milk chocolate you find in Norway, with the taste of Scandinavian summer grass and midnight sun. The other types of chocolate they can keep as theirs, but we do the milk one best. In my opinion. 🙂

Well, what is called "praline" in French is simply called "chocolate" in English. Of course the coca comes from somewhere else.

@taiqidong9841 3 года назад

@@jenskimpe3662 Indeed, and in Switzerland in some French cantons they say huitante for quatre-vingt... So, en resumé, in Belgium: septante et nonante, en Suisse: huitante, simple non? F.ex. in B. we had the old advertisement: Tintin is for children from sept à septante sept ans ;-) And the french do laugh with us because of that. But really 77 = septante sept or soixante dixsept?
