Chocolate

[Doobie]

Who here eats chocolate and what's your favorite kind of chocolate or chocolate bars..? As fat as I am or may have ever been, I do not like chocolate at all, it tastes so bad to me at all times, am I the only freak of nature who doesn't eat chocolate?? I do drink chocolate milk and eat reese's pieces though. But that's literally it.

You are a freak indeed. No chocolate? You gotta be crazy man!

[Doobie]

Whenever I tell people I don't eat chocolate they like freak out and think I'm some kind of alien cause of it.

[rise]

Really?! That's the exact reaction I had when I read your post!

[Fresh8]

You drink chocolate milk but do not eat chocolate? Yes, you are a freak.

I sometimes get cravings for chocolate. I don't eat it too much as it's usually too rich for me or too sweet... my favorite bar would be Kit Kat and Boost. I more prefer chips/crisps and lollies over chocolate though.

Im glad that youve opened up this topic since i love chocolates(this is the reason that i got fat)

Btw my favorite chocolate of all time would be the Cadbury from Kraft Foods and Sneakers and Hershey's

This thread will lead to somewhere familiar...

[shadowgrin]

You know someone is really into it when that person knows the little details, like say the corporation of which a particular chocolate brand belongs to.

[Fresh8]

mmm... I didn't know Cadbury was run by Kraft. When I think of Kraft, I think of cream cheese.

[benji]

Kraft is the largest food corporation in the world (I think, U.S. easily at least) and has bought hundreds or thousands of smaller companies and brandings. They bought Cadbury earlier this year. Few food companies want to plaster their higher corporate logo over the brand they purchased as that devalues the brand. Unilever has been changing some of their existing products from Lipton to Knorr branding for no obvious reason I can tell, and they've kept everything else on the design the same and had a informative blurb about the brand change on the back of the products for over two years now. They own something like 400-500 brands alone, I can't even imagine how many Kraft potentially owns.

As fast as I am or may have ever been, I do not like chocolate at all

Uh, what?

I don't eat really any "sweets" and don't particularly like them. I'll sometimes get a Kit Kat bar since they're usually like 50 cents but I've had one in the cupboard for like ten months uneaten, and I have a tub of NesQuik in the cupboard (yes, next to the Kit Kat) I use occasionally to make chocolate milk especially to get rid of the last glass of milk in a jug. Might eat a chocolate chip cookie if someone else has them though. I also sometimes like gummy bears, Jolly Ranchers or Twizzlers. But I think I can count the times I bought any of those on one hand in the last five years. If somebody has some out I might grab one or two though, same with peppermints at restaurants.

I'll top Doobie by noting I basically hate ice cream. I don't think I've even had any in probably ten years except for one specific instance since it was homemade.

Maybe I should eat that Kit Kat, a year is probably pushing it. I mean by getting stale, I doubt it can ever go bad.

This thread will lead to somewhere familiar...

Yeah, by outing all the girls with their regular monthly chocolate cravings, and need for mint and chocolate chip ice cream while they sit in the dark watching their Gilmore Girls DVDs, that gets them a full PM inbox overnight even though the forum is in some kind of dark ages once people hear girls on the internet they'll be back just for it.

You sir, disgust me.

[benji]

Which part? The bears, hard things that shrink when you put them in your mouth long enough, or the long cylinders with a hole through the middle?

I could live without a lot of things, chocolate not being one of them

[Laxation]

im a fan of frys turkish delight

[benji]

Salt has the same chemical reaction to male hormones that chocolate does to female hormones.

Just sayin'.

[The X]

Everybody loves salt.

Sit, I don't like Cadbury since they sold out. But the fact is they sold out before they sold out to Kraft. Decreasing block size, decreasing cocoa content, replacing some cocoa butter with vegetable fat (palm oil), even if they reversed that when everybody in NZ kicked up a fuss & started buying better chocolate (Whittakers).

I actually prefer the Woolies Select Brand Chocolate over Cadbury's

[Laxation]

Coles brand chocolate is also pretty good. Much cheaper than Cadbury and the mint block tastes pretty awesome!

It's actually made in Belgium I believe, so that probably explains it. It's like those Coles brand lollies are made in Germany. Good times.

Shame they're not call You'll Love Coles anymore. Those were the days. Love the cheesey pics of the person with a cheesey quote.

[Fresh8]

God, don't even remind me of my Coles days - depressing!... but I do remember when the you love coles blocks came out... the milk chocolate was fucking tasty

Another one of my favourite are Home Brand Honeycomb Bites or whatever theyre called. mmm

[JaoSming]

Everybody loves salt.

I don't, but I love me some Garlic.

Doobie ain't got shit on me. I am the king of hypocrisy when it comes to consumption.

First off, I only drink water. Yes, only water, no milk, no juice, no , no soda, no flavored water, no hot chocolate, no sparkling fairy water, just straight, water. When I'm sick I can get NyQuil and DayQuil down but those are the only exceptions. (original Green and Red flavors, no cherry shit)

Even though I gag when I have milk in front of me, ice cream, cheese, sour cream, cream cheese are all A OK to me. No smoothies or shit like that. When I was growing up I had to "eat" Tums for the calcium since I didn't drink milk.

I hate tomatoes on my burgers or salads, yet I always reach for Ketchup or Salsa.


There are many other examples with me, and there are a LOT of fruits and vegetables I will not eat, either because of seeds or overall stickiness (a touch of OCD showing up there) however in the past year my better half has gotten to me. Now I not only eat, but LOVE avocados, sushi, artichokes and even brussels spruts. Seriously, I don't eat turkey sandwiches anymore, I eat avocado sandwiches with some turkey on them.

Anyway, on topic, putting peanut butter and chocolate together is man's greatest achievement. I don't really care for "normal" chocolate but I do enjoy dark chocolate. I don't really eat a lot of treats so when I do I usually just stick with Reese's stuff.

[el badman]

I fucking love chocolate, can't live without it, at least when it's dark chocolate.
Belgium chocolate are the best. There's an organic brand owned by Cadbury that's called Green & Black, it's the real deal too.

[[Q]]

not a big fan of dark chocolate. i like white chocolate a lot. i could drink chocolate milk all day every day. Nestle Quik aka Nesquik is the good stuff. I love the taste of Yoohoo but that stuff is hard to find and i looked at the ingredients once and it's not entirely chocolate milk

i have chocolate once every couple of months now just so i remember what it tastes like. when i was a kid, i could live off of peanut M&M's, Milky Way, Snickers, Kit Kat, and Crunch. damn Halloween was the best day of the year

[buzzy]

I don't mind it. If ther was some at home, I'd probably eat it up and enjoy it, but very, very seldom I actually get a craving for it.
I'm more of a cookies and pastries guy.

Chocolate shakes I dig though.

[Jackal]

Wow, a topic about food from Doobie? Caught me totally by surprise, somehow it didn't lead to how sad his life is and him asking advice about how to become better. Congrats from deviating from your routine topics Dubs.

I don't like milk/white chocolate. The only chocolate I eat is Droste dark pastilles.



I used to like chocolate milk when I was around 10, but now it just makes me want to throw up.

When I'm in the states I eat Milky Ways sometimes, when I'm on Curacao I eat M&M's Crispy. Why? Because they taste different in different countries. The Milky Way of out here tastes quite bad, the M&M Crispy isn't crispy, more like stale.

Just like Coke, it tastes different in different countries. (India, yuck. Just yuck.)

Do chocolate covered young boys balls count as chocolate? Where is Lean?...goes to find Lean.

[Martti.]

I like milk chocolate and all sorts of candy bars (Snickers, Twix etc). Eat it quite often.
