Chocolate
There is a news story here that suggests may be linked to depression.
However, it is not entirely clear whether it's the that causes depression, or whether people with depression are more likely to crave .

Re: Chocolate
According to my employers, everything is becoming virtual (and mobile, and personal and digital).
This is all very well but somehow I find the virtual less satisfying than the old physical stuff. I suspect this is due to the fact that I am getting old and am not in touch with the zeitgeist.

Re: Chocolate
If you truly like old physical stuff, I think I have a couple of Easter Eggs from 2008 lying around somewhere which I'll drop in the post to you.
I'm just waiting for someone to invent virtual dark chocolate which we can insert using :70%: or very excellent responses, up to :90%:

Re: Chocolate
Yes! I love Rocky Road although I have never seen it in a candy bar like the one you showed. My first Rocky Road was an ice cream from Baskin-Robbins (not sure if you have ever heard of them). It is a chocolate ice cream with almonds and mini-marshmallows. My all time favorite!HansV wrote:A "Rocky Road" bar!MickeyMouse wrote:I would love one with nuts and little marshmellows.

Re: Chocolate
Yes, I know about Baskin-Robbins (I spent some time in the USA). It's not generally available in The Netherlands, only in a US Army base in the south of the country...

Re: Chocolate
Seven days without makes one weak!
There's a small chocolatier shop up the street from my office that's been around something like 100 years. They don't have a website and don't ship. Darn they do make the absolute best stuff. I'm way over due for a bag of salted dark chocolate caramels. The trifecta of sweet, salt and caffeine.

Re: Chocolate
Hmmmm, that does sound delicious! There aren't many like those around here. We had one right in town but then they sold the business off a few years ago. Within a year the new owners were buying the chocolates instead of making them. Just not the sameAilios wrote:Seven days without makes one weak!
