Some agreed that chocolate can be a good addition to a dish, but that adding a whole Bounty bar to mix was crossing a line.

One person said: “I MEAN ADD LIKE SOME DARK CHOCOLATE BUT NOT A BOUNTY BAR.” @sunilsingh.x commented: “Calling that curry is a crime.” Another agreed: “What a horrendous day to have eyes.”

One follower even tagged popular Indian restaurant chain Dishoom to the comments to ask for its thoughts. Dishoom simply replied with shocked and confused emojis.

Mole is a traditional Mexican sauce consisting of fruits, nuts, chilli peppers, and spices like black pepper, cinnamon, or cumin. Chocolate isn’t an ingredient traditionally found in Indian cuisine or any of Subcontinental Asia.
