Things that belong in chocolate

  • Nuts
  • Mint
  • Orange

Things that definitely DO NOT belong in chocolate

  • Ginger
  • Chilli
  • Lime
  • Chilli and lime together. Abomination.

Am I right?

Just don't like my food to be sweet. I don't mind some things that are naturally sweet (e.g. carrots) in main dish type food but I don't want things like sugar added to it. I don't want honey glazed veg. I don't want sweet chilli and ginger sauce, or god forbid, sweet and sour sauce.

If I want sweet I want something sweet not salty chocolate or ice cream.

I can't abide salt in chocolate and I hate salted caramel. I love salt and sweet popcorn though.

WatermelonGlitter · 14/06/2018 21:30

I love them all.

Chocolate and Lime, chocolate and rose, chocolate and violet, chocolate and lavender, chocolate and chilli, salted caramel.

Everything.

Just leave it here. Ta very much.

Salted chocolate and caramel is yum and don't get me started on salt sprinkled on toffee popcorn 😍

I’ve had Guinness chocolate. It was quite nice. Ginger and dark chocolate is a match made in heaven. And 85% cocoa dark chocolate is a health food.

In moderation obviously.

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 14/06/2018 21:38

Chocolate should not resemble health food. should be a t-shirt. 😂

About 10 years ago, M&S sold rose flavoured milk chocolate

It was pleasant as long as you considered it as “other” and not as chocolate

Ghost pepper salted caramel chocolate by Dr burnorium sounds like some kind of sexual fetish.

WatermelonGlitter · 15/06/2018 09:39

M&S had that rose flavoured chocolate last year too.

Ahem.

Those of us of a certain vintage will remember the lime barrel of Dairy Milk days. It was always the one left for last. Along with the rock hard caramel thing:

To think this is an abomination.

That is just a keg of despair echt.

I loved the rock hard caramels, though. My Mum loved them too, as they stuck my teeth together, which meant I shut up for 5 minutes.
