Scho-ka-Kola, 100 g tin can, wholemilk, 10 pcs box, BLUE

This stuff in identically-shaped tins has kept the Germans awake since the '30s. Scho-Ka-Kola is chocolate with lots of caffeine, essentially a mild combat drug! The whole-milk version isn't a wartime product, but a modern, sweeter alternative to the classic.

Note: the cardboard box may or may not be included. It all depends on the position of the stars and the moon and what else.

During WW2, Scho-Ka-Kola was a part of the aviator iron ration and was widely issued alongside normal food distribution to the army. One can find mentions in contemporary soldiers' diaries of how they would despair at being issued Scho-Ka-Kola, since it invariably meant impending trouble.

Some numbers and facts:

Bittersweet chocolate (cocoa 23.3% min.), with coffee and kola nut powder. Ingredients: cocoa mass, sugar, cocoa butter, coffee (2.6%), whole milk powder, kola nut powder (1.6%), emulsifiers sunflower lecithin + E 476, flavor. May contain traces of hazelnuts, almonds and gluten.

Botanically speaking, the kola nut is not a nut or legume, but a seed. We advise people with tree nut or legume allergies to be cautious in any case.

4 pieces of Scho-Ka-Kola contain about as much caffeine as a strong espresso. Use with discretion. Really.
