EVAAAAAAAAR!

[ignore the watermark. I had to nick it off Google images and it was the only one I could find.]

Cadbury's Burnt Almond Premium Dark Chocolate. Yesss.

Discovered in a vending machine today on my break from work... easy selection as the rest of the crap in there was... well, crap. It's da good ****, I'm telling you. Dark chocolate=teh R0xx0r.

Okay! This is now officially a "My favourite choccie" thread, I guess... Bring it!

... Unless it has the word "starfish" after it... I'll cry.

I'm ussually a fan of lighter chocolates, such as the swedish 'Plopp'.

I discovered this last weekend:

Lavender chocolate, made by some good-quality Belgian manufacturer. Yum.

One of my other favourites is dark chocolate with orange and spices:

I love chocolate!

Chocolate with spices? What kind of spices?

Shanti418 · Post by **Shanti418** » Fri Jun 16, 2006 4:56 pm

Mostly Scary and Posh.

Wouldn't mind some of that Cadbury's though. I'm a sucker for any and all kind of dark chocolate.

Target (in the US) sells this Choxie stuff that comes with cinnamon, hot peppers and little cocoa nibs.

It's the Aztec Thin.

For the most part, I stick to European chocolate. Ghiradelli's is more or less decent along with this Target stuff, but with Lindt and Cadbury available in grocery stores, I feel no need to eat crappy American candy. Some of the colleges with high European populations around here carry Rittersport as well.

Chocolate sucks, and this topic is stupid.

And by that, I mean 'I had an allergy test last week, and it turns out I'm allergic to dairy and cannot have chocolate that isn't soya based, so I'm all jealous'.

Turns out that I'm allergic to beer and lager too. Boo.

(Apologies for the derailment Sades-carry on...)

You're allerigc to BEER?????

Sweet Jesus, man. And I mean that in a completly non religious way, before anyone flames me.

Guess it's time to overdose on sex. Or weed. Or both. Just not at the same time.

There's still good drinks like whiskey and vodka, so enjoy those.

I am allergic to wheat and barley, so I feel your pain. (Well, not quite, since I didn't drink for religious reasons up until a couple of months ago... but I would like to feel your pain. We should start a club.)

Cheers with either Coke or potato-or-corn-derived hard liquor...

Wait...Cadbury makes a chocolate...BAR!?!? Where can such a thing be purchased...in bulk?!?

sprunkner · Post by **sprunkner** » Sun Jun 18, 2006 9:26 am

If you go to the candy aisles in your local grocery store, they are usually selling some pretty huge ones for as low as a buck each.

They make AWESOME smores. Higher melting point and all that. Seriously. You'll never go back to Hershey's and marshmallow again.

I get massive choccie/sweet cravings once in a blue moon. I'm not much of a sweets person, usually- but chocolate, yessss. I used to keep a Chocolate Orange in my fridge for moments like. Those things take forever for me to get through and thus are very useful for the odd sweets craving but since I moved here I haven't seen any Chocolate Oranges.

I'm probably just looking in the wrong places...

Eline, that chocolate with orange and spices sounds verrrrrry interesting.

Eline · Post by **Eline** » Mon Jun 19, 2006 6:43 am

I have that too. I don't care too much about sweets, though I like liquorice, but I must have chocolate on a regular basis. Especially on that one week per month.

Sadie, you can maybe buy that chocolate in an organic store? That's where i got mine. Here is the address and website of the Canadian distributor:

CANADA
Supreme Foods Ltd:

And the chocolate's website: http://www.greenandblacks.com

Oh, and the spices in question are cinnamon, nutmag, vanilla and maybe pepper.

I've actually wished that I had a menstrual cycle in order to explain my chocolate fixation.

Ten - thirteen years ago I always used to eat this amazing chocolate called Stratos, or something like that.
It came in a blue wrapper.

Does anyone know what I am talking about?

Eline · Post by **Eline** » Tue Jun 20, 2006 10:40 am

No.

but google says they're Norwegian.

I also just heard that smoking cannabis can help soothe the monthy problems.

Eline- you rock.

I believe I've got a quest...!

Trust me. You don't want it.

I hope you find them!
