Nah I might just dislike random marketing pushes to the point of conspiracy
So yeah you're right to notice it isn't authentic, but it's business y'know?
Right. Maybe I just realized I have a dislike of random marketing pushes instead of a grand observation
@Vermillion-Rx Oh well that's the other thing to; brand washing. Arabic Dubai? Dangerous destination Dubai? Islamic Dubai? Dirty oil money Dubai? No silly, Dubai Chocolate! That's our brand association and they'll sink billions into it if it gets them the image they're going for.
Saudi Arabia did the same kind of thing through sports. Invest in teams around the world, buy positive results and then profit positive name recognition.
So yeah you're right to notice it isn't authentic, but it's business y'know?
@Vermillion-Rx anyone trying to type in the "Dubai chocko" into search engines before would either get Instagram models getting poo-n or nothing which would look like engine is covering up.
Now unless youll be more specific you might get the first 100pages of another sheikh favourite.
Is it that? Idk. Coverup strategy doesn't have include only one approach.
I had DC icecream in shape of balls, moochie style and loved it.
Pistachios are very expsnsive, what is found in a chocolate is probably some low quality falvouring blend.
Honestly, it just tastes like chocolate and pistachio but the taste conflicts to the point it doesn't really taste like either
I could beat describe it as tasting "cool". It doesn't have the mellow/sweet chocolate taste, it's kind of bland from some weird flavor cancellation by mixing the two
If they didn't stick the exotic Dubai branding on it I don't think anyone would have bought it for the advertised flavor pairing
Ah, fair enough. Perhaps I was actually just being biased because it tasted like slop to me
@Vermillion-Rx Yeah its everywhere. I have yet to buy a bar -its so overpriced. Strangely, none of my friends have yet said "Oh you have to try this new chocolate". In fact no one has even mentioned it to me. Its clearly a trend with someone but its not aimed at the likes of me.
@Vermillion-Rx I don't think it's anything too sinister. Let's stay one outlet stocks Dubai chocolate and finds it sells well, word of mouth spreads and marketing pushes it as a premium up market product. Well, posers want it because it fits their image. Influencers get paid to push it and the "fake culture" adopts it to emulate the posers they aspire to. This will spread to new regions and more outlets, propagating the "image" of everyone who is somebody getting in on Dubai chocolate.
The fact you don't eat Dubai chocolate means you're not with it, and so you're a loser. If you want the best results on your socials, make sure to do the Dubai Chocolate shuffle so you can claim your UAE sponsorships too.
