I find that interesting since by many standards around the world the majority of what is produced in the UK isn't chocolate but vegelate. There was a very big argument about it several years ago which could have found the likes of Cadbury's losing the right to call its products chocolate due to its low levels of cocoa butter compared to the European products.
