Knorr's isn't the best, but it'll do and you can find it in most grocery stores in country these days, I'd say. Molé sauces are one of the things I like to pick up when I am in Mexico, where every store has a huge selection, including local versions. Based on that, I'd say not so many cooks in Mexico make their own anymore.
ETA: That chocolate hang up? is all in your head. It took me a long time of watching DH scarf it down in restaurants and lick the plate until I got over it.
