Do you like mint chocolate flavor?
Mint chocolate is one of the most polarizing foods in Korea
In today’s post, let’s find out how Koreans call “mint chocolate”!
민초 is short for ‘민트 초콜릿’ which is the Korean pronunciation of ‘mint chocolate’.
In Korea, 민초 (mint chocolate) has a polarizing flavor.
Fans, called ‘민초파/민초단’ (pro-mint chocolate group), enjoy its refreshing mint and sweet chocolate combination. Detractors, called ‘반민초파/반민초단’ (anti-mint chocolate group), often compare the mint flavor to toothpaste.
