It makes lousy fudge too!!!

Date: 2008-09-27 01:46 am (UTC)
I noticed a few years back that my fudge recipe wasn't turning out like it should. It wouldn't set firm, and it seemed very oily. That was when I noticed that the big chocolate chip makers like Hershey's, Nestle, and Ghirardelli had ALL removed the cocoa butter from their chips and replaced it with palm kernel oil. However, the store brands of chocolate chips like Sam's Choice at Wal*Mart still has cocoa butter, and they are cheaper too. Lately I've noticed that the cocoa butter has made its way back into the name brands. I probably wasn't the only one who figured it out because the store brands of chocolate chips sold out last Christmas while the name brands sat on the shelf.
