Dairy Milk – Classic Milk Chocolate

Dairy Milk

How do you even review Dairy Milk?  Just plain old regular Dairy Milk?  The flavour of Cadbury milk chocolate is so fundamental that trying to describe it is like trying to describe the colour blue.  I don’t know, it’s… Dairy Milk.  It tastes like Dairy Milk.  What do you want from me?

Dairy Milk

I will say that I think I accidentally bought a Greek version of the chocolate bar — like a lot of European confections, there are about a dozen languages on the packaging, but Greek is first.  If it tasted any different from the usual Dairy Milk, however, I couldn’t tell.

The texture is a bit grainier than you’d like; a quick perusal of the ingredients reveals the presence of palm and shea oils, which is never a good thing.  It’s still creamy enough, but it’s slightly off (this might be a Greek and/or European thing, because Canadian Dairy Milk doesn’t contain either of those oils).

Dairy Milk

Otherwise, it tastes how it tastes: it’s milky, chocolatey, and very sweet.  It’s Dairy Milk.  It tastes like Dairy Milk.
