You need scare quotes for US 'chocolate'.
I think it's to the UK's shame that we needed an exemption to call UK chocolate 'chocolate' under EU regs, as it contains ingredients not allowed in mainland European chocolate (even if it isn't as bad as US 'chocolate'). Why we didn't just improve UK chocolate is a mystery to me.
