Answer:

American chocolate

Step-by-step explanation:

In the field of psychology, a 'stereotype' is defined as a general belief about a certain type or category of people.

The consumers around the world have some different stereotypes about some specific countries and some specific products that they judged to be the 'best'. Such an item which does not fit best in the stereotype scheme is 'American chocolate.'

The American chocolate have a different taste than others. It is tangy and is slightly sour. It is lighter. So some people have a different perception or stereotype for this item.

Thus the answer is 'American chocolate.'
