Tickle, I guess the point is that condensed chocolate milk is ready to go, needs no mixing and can sit, as is, on the shelf for a year. The Indonesians certainly have many uses for the product. (And they do know how to cook!)
I never did work out why The Spice Islanders always used South American chile in almost every food. Ironic. I even got chile flavoured strawberry jam (my mistake) with breakfast toast. Yet they have all those other traditional spices to choose from.
However, my best memory of 'susu coklat' is the 'alpokat' milkshakes in Medan. The milk is drizzled inside the cold glass, in artistic swirls. And cold avocado and icecream shake is added. A meal in itself for travelers.
