choco
Candy bar shorthand
Choco is informal shorthand for chocolate, used especially in compound forms like choco chip or hot choco.
In Australian and New Zealand slang, choco historically referred to a member of the Citizens Military Forces—soldiers considered unlikely to see combat, the implication being they would "melt" under pressure like chocolate.
The term can also be a derogatory word for a dark-skinned person in some contexts.
