I dont know

But I do buy chocolate in the U.K

According to Alan Davidson in The Oxford Companion to Food, chocolate was first sold in London in 1657 by a Frenchman with a shop in Gracechurch Street, who advertised it as "an excellent West India drink [which] cures and preserves the body of many diseases". Not inly did he sell it ready to drink, but he also showed his customers how to make it themselves with a recipe book they were encouraged to buy. The great diarist Samuel Pepys refers several times to a morning drink of 'Chocolatte' in the 1660s. It's also thought that England may have been the first place where chocolate drinks were made using milk kinstead of just water, although this came later.
