Strong chocolate for the serious eater. 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.
This stuff in identically-shaped tins has kept the Germans awake since the 30’s. Scho-Ka-Kola is chocolate with lots of caffeine, essentially a mild combat drug in other words! It contains enough caffeine to stop the eater from falling asleep and prevent fatigue.
4 pieces of Scho-Ka-Kola contain about as much caffeine as a strong espresso.
