The viral Dubai chocolate that gripped social media users earlier this year has made its way to South African Dis-Chem Pharmacies

The big hoo-ha surrounding this viral chocolate was its very appealing pistachio filling. As nut and chocolate lovers might profess, the delicious taste of pistachio and chocolate isn't for everyone. 

Earlier this year, social media users were paying hefty prices to get their hands on this viral chocolate; South Africans paid up to R1,000 for a slab of this sought-after chocolate. 

Now, Dis-Chem Pharmacies daringly shared that they are stocking Dubai Chocolate, which, as you might imagine, caused a stir on social media. They announced that the chocolate is available at selected stores and will "leave you wanting more..." 

At that price, we're not so sure. 

Watch the video from TikTok below.

The chocolate is being sold for R399,99 at Dis-Chem, and people are wondering whether they should try it for that price. One person wrote, "I tried it; it tastes like those candles that we light at church."

A woman named Olivia Dennis went to her Dis-Chem and bought the chocolate. She shared a video of her and one of the staff members at Dis-Chem trying it out. Here's what they had to say.
