Am I the only one who doesn't like chocolate? :?

I hate how it sticks to my fingers, melts in the mouth and gets all greasy.. the smell of dark chocolate really turns me off.

the only chocolate I eat is white chocolate Toblerone, and only when it's been in the fridge for a few hours. I almost never see white Tobleone any more, so when I do I just must have it..

There's an English Grocery/ Import store about 1.5 miles from me that may possibly have them.

Cote d'Or!

Love the stuff. I always keep their 86% on hand.


Ah, another chocolate purist! Cote d'Or is simply one of the finest chocolatiers in the world. I can't bear most american chocolates, though I do eat Dove truffle eggs around easter and some small chocolatiers in the US do a fine job of using real ingredients. There was a small chocolate shop in Asheville, NC that makes really, really good chocolates, but I can't remember the name.

On a side note, I loved the chocolate museum in Koln. I visited there so many times when I was living in Germany. I also loved their displays of chocolate cups (for drinking liquid chocolate, it is not very similar to "hot cocoa" they have in present day) I have a fascination with chocolate cups because they are so slender and fine, not like coffee cups. But I deny myself collecting them because it's not good to collect fragile items with a 3 year old in the house!

I'm a Hershey's girl all the way. Right now as I type I'm in the process of polishing off an entire bag of my Hershey's chocolate truffle squares. You've heard of the term "beer belly." They need to create a new term for me called "chocolate belly." :lol: :lol:

I like all forms of chocolate, but eat it in moderation.

In opinion, the best chocolate are
chocolate chip cookies and chocolate chip muffins.

Best chocolate EVER. I highly recommend the Sticky Toffee range-they're gooey and deliscious!

I just thought up a song for Chocolate. Everyone can add on the song if they wanted.

Do you like Chocolate
Yeah we like Chocolate
