3. Nestle (KitKat)

Kit Kat is one of Nestle's most popular candy bars, but Mashed says it's not because of the chocolate:

What really brings it together are the wafers, which balance the sweetness of the chocolate and add a great crunchy texture to the whole experience.

2. Russell Stover

Russell Stover has been ranked by more than one source as having a 'fake' taste. Mashed says:

The chocolate itself is fine, a thin one-note shell that mostly exists to enrobe a filling. The fillings are usually a little stiff, very sweet, and have an abundance of fake extract flavor.

1. Cadbury

Cadbury eggs are a popular chocolate choice in Michigan for Easter, but the company's Milk Line bars fall short in excitement. Mashed says both taste and texture make this chocolate the 'worst':

"the texture and general chocolate flavor were off-putting. The texture was brittle, almost grainy from the sugar, with a waxy mouthfeel at the end that didn't melt quickly."

Mashed ranked Lindt chocolate as the best in the U.S. for taste and texture.
