WTF... chocolate burns my mouth?
Discussion
Why do some chocolate products 'burn' my mouth? By burn, I don't mean 'set on fire', but there's some kind of chemical reaction going on which takes the skin off the roof of my mouth.
It doesn't happen with all chocolate; CDM, for example, is fine. And it doesn't seem necessarily to be 'cheap chocolate' which is the culprit either.
On the basis that I haven't heard of millions similarly afflicted, WTF's going on in my mouth?

Sounds like an allergic reaction to me, is it a specific type of chocolate?
Not really. I don't chocolate that often, and when I do it's usually CDM.At Christmas, we had some quite expensive 'chocolate money' - adult market, not kiddy stuff - and that did it. Just now I ate a little - again not cheap - adult Easter novelty choccy thing. Very small. And the reaction was similarly instant. Feels like it has left small blisters on the roof of my mouth.

All products which might have been wrapped in foil. Could it be the foil?
