Chocolate Woes

[Misanthropical]

Woo-hoo! Another one! What is it with the weirdness we get? I guess maybe because there's not a lot of us, in the US anyway. I get a lot of oddness here because the predominant hair color is either dark brown or black.

But, did you know that, according to National Geographic, we redheads are supposedly going extinct?

My little guy is a redhead and he gets his weirdness from me, even though I am not a redhead. My mother is a redhead and so was her father, from what I'm told.

Also, my daughter and I will take any unwanted chocolate off of those who don't want it.

[Nyoibo]

Oh yes?

Oh yes.

[Jack7957]

How about some chocolate pizza?

[Evil Queen]

Jack. I think I love you.

Godiva, Belgium's finest
If anyone likes Godiva, be sure to try other brand such as Côte d'Or, Leonidas,

... *looks around* Has it been long enough yet...?
"This... is... sugar free!"

I also don't like Scharffen Berger,

Sharp... mountainer...? Not sure on the second word... might be townie... Berg is either mountain or town, and I can't remember which...

Cadbury chocolate is decent, but they've managed to combine the cream center and chocolate in a proportion that's addictive.

I bought some leftover Cadbury chocolate bars on a whim a few weeks ago. I got about halfway into the caramel filled regular chocolate bar and almost went into a coma... it was too sweet for me. I 'accidentally' left the dark chocolate bar on my friend's desk when I went home...

[Carolaaine]

I've heard a lot about those Cadbury eggs, but I've never tasted one Nor have I tasted any American chocolate. I really would like to taste some if I ever get the chance, though I doubt any brand could be better than Belgian chocolate

[Rapscallion]

I wouldn't think of it as better or worse - for the good stuff, anyway. Think of it as different. I like both milk and dark chocolate

[Carolaaine]

I'm just curious of the taste
I like the "noir de noir" (black of black if you translate it literally, really black in normal people-language) by côte d'or... Impossible to come by if you don't live in Europe unfortunately

Oh, those evil little orbs of goodness. There's the original variety, but there's also a caramel filled version that needs to be in a brown paper wrapper! And the mini-eggs, solid milk chocolate with a candy shell.

Good thing they're only available around Easter, except Wally World put them out when they put out the Valentine's stuff. Bastards.

My in-laws had a small handful of the regular eggs in "Ornament Egg" wrappers for Christmas this year. I was in heaven.

Ooooh, haven't seen those around here. Which is probably a good thing.

[Chromatix]

I think "berg" is mountain, "burg" is town. Consider "iceberg" and "borough", which derive from the same roots (borough from "burgh").

Which, by the way, Cadbury season just started in NC. RW was telling me about how he got a bunch of them the other day. Lucky dog.

[RetailWorkhorse]

I bought ten. Sugar coma, here I come.

Good thing I have yogurt to counter-balance the sugar.

[Irving Patrick Freleigh]

I have about 3 weeks to go before the Valentines candy gets lost.

We're already up to our keister in Easter, but the candy hasn't started arriving yet. I will be watching for the Cadburys, believe you me.
