I don't eat a lot of chocolate by itself, but you add some peanut butter to the mix and I'll tear it up.

I like my chocolate as dark as possible, preferrably 80%+, although 72% will do when there's nothing else around. I really do not car for "normal" 60% dark chocolate. I can stand milk chocolate when it has a nice filling, or is really well made. For white chocolate it's about the same. Best chocolate I've ever had was 90% with crushed, roasted coffee beans.

High-five

I like my chocolate in truffle form, full of another sort of chocolate. The sort doesn't mater too terribly much, but the higher quality the better.

Man, that sounds like you're just challenging yourself to eat food that's too bitter for the most bitterest of bitter, bitter, bitters. images/smilies/wacko.gif

I guess I do understand, though. Some of my favourite music is unlistenable to the most listenering of listeners.

It's all just about acquiring a taste for it, I suppose...

White (not)chocolate for me please with milk in second place.

Liking bitter foods may very well be genetic. Blame your parents.

I absolutely love bitter foods. Another great combo is dark chocolate with roasted cocoa husks.

But both I enjoy maybe 2 squares at a time, together with a nice cup of black espresso, or a glass of good red wine

ahpadt · October 26th, 2009, 4:06 PM

I have a thing for always wanting a glass of cold water after or while eating chocolate. Dunno why.

I usually eat Cadbury or Nestle because it's common and inexpensive but I also really like some of the more exotic stuff with the hard-to-pronounce names like Lindt or Guylian. Have any of you ever tried those Lindt Lindor ball things? If not, do yourself a favour and track some down. They're really good. And this is coming from a real fatty-fatty-boomba-latty who knows his stuff!

I've tried Hershey's and I'm sad to say, it's not very good. It's bitter and greasy. images/smilies/sad.gif

Ferrero Rochers. Criminally expensive but soo good. I usually buy one of those boxes and just pig out. Also, the Cadbury Fruit and Nut is a huge favourite of mine, and I tried one of those Chokito bars the other day which made me slightly annoyed that I've spent 22 years on this planet without having ever tried it before.

Red Bull, try Ferrero Rondnoir if you can. Even more expensive, but is better!

I myself am a big choco freak, addict even. I especially have a craving after a meal.
The bad thing is I can't really control myself, so I eat to much if given the chance.

I like the regular milk choc. Dark is great too, but not too much, over 80% is too dark. Tried 99%...that's just cocoa powder in cubes, c'mon!

I eat what i find in the store, Milka, Nestle, home brands (which are very good) etc.

But I'm trying to make myself buy less, but more quality.

MacGuffin · October 26th, 2009, 6:24 PM

Alright, alright, you did it.

I'm now going to buy some chocolate.

Edit: And this is what I bought:

You should try strawberry/pepper, too images/smilies/smile.gif

2Billion · October 26th, 2009, 10:51 PM

I haven't had mango chili, but I've had straight up chili, and it's deeelicious.
