treeseed commented on the word white chocolate
"White chocolate is a confection of sugar, cocoa butter, and milk solids. Unlike chocolate, white chocolate contains neither chocolate liquor nor cocoa solids. The low melting point of cocoa butter allows white chocolate and chocolate to remain solid at room temperature, yet melt easily in the mouth. As such, white chocolate has a texture similar to that of milk chocolate."

Whether this counts as chocolate depends on which dictionary you look it up in; most standard dictionaries seem to just define chocolate as a product of the cacao bean that is then processed, while cooking dictionaries make a point of saying that white chocolate contains no chocolate liquor/cocoa solids and thus, is not chocolate.
