> Chocolate is a food made from roasted and ground cocoa beans that can be a liquid, solid, or paste, either on its own or as a flavoring in other foods.
For clarification, this post is focused on the post refinement, correct?
Poland is #3?
That is surprising to say the least.
Wow, didn’t know Canada was a power player in the chocolate business.
And surprised Switzerland is so low with all the talk of fancy Swiss chocolates growing up.
By which country’s definition of “chocolate”?
Different countries have different definitions on what counts as “chocolate”, mostly to do with what % of the fat is cocoa butter Vs vegetable oils.
Wow I didn’t realize so much chocolate was grown in Europe/s.
Sorry to be rude on your post, but given the current state of chocolate colonialism and exploitation, I felt it had to be said.
To your graph: it’s very pretty. I like the chocolate logo in the lower right, the color fade on the bars. Nice work! My only critique or helpful suggestion would be that if you say wanted to highlight Europe/North America you could change the font type for the country names, or if you just wanted to focus on the countries independently, maybe you could sneak a like country flag in there somewhere? Very nice as is though.
A lot of German companies are producers for many UK and US brands. I was surprised to see all these brands I knew from series and movies when I visited the local chocolate company.
I would’ve thought an African country would be tops
Funny how all of those countries are naturally located in a cacao-growing rainforest. Not. And no.
I really wish there was more emphasis on the data being BEAUTIFUL in posts rather than throwing up any and every chart people find online.

Not a single country that actually grows cacao is on this list. This is what imperialism looks like
