herbs and spices infused in neutral spirit. used to be considered medicine but now they're just a way to add a splash of flavor and color to cocktails.

This is part of the reason why cocktails were so reviled in the 1920s, it was like you woke up one morning and all the zoomers were eating codeine for breakfast thanks to some instagram video.

Dark chocolate is bitter for the sake of bitterness, otherwise you'd just eat milk chocolate.
Bitter beers are bitter for the sake of bitterness. There's even a kind of beer simply called Bitter, albeit it's pleasantly malty compared to an American IPA.
Matcha tea is bitter for the sake of bitterness. They serve sweets with it for balance.
All this because bitterness is enjoyable in correct balance and proportion, like every other flavor.

No, dark chocolate are not bitter for bitters sake, they happen to have a bitterness to it because it more pure and compliments the chocolate. If I were to add bitterness to milk chocolate then it would taste even worse than normal milk chocolate.

It has bitterness naturally. The bitterness is overwhelmed by the sugar in milk chocolate. If you add bitterness to already sweet milk chocolate it would taste worse. This is not hard to comprehend for a non-autist.

The inception of dark chocolate wasnt because they just wanted to add more cacao for the fuck of it. They wanted a richer chocolate taste, which means more bitter. Your pea-brained attempts at arguing are at an end, pal. Just accept that you're more lacking in the head than flavor in milk chocolate.

Keto is dumb shit tho. Humans have been eating carbs for thousands of years. In the past even more as it was the staple and you wouldnt always come by veggies and meat. You wanna tell me these people had an obesity problem? Or is it maybe because people are lazy retards that should move more + subsist on carbs and saturated and ranzig polyunsaturaded fats?
