I don't like chocolate.
Am I normal?? (well, okay, so there's no real definition of normal anyway). I tried to eat part of a Three Musketeer bar and I took, like, 2 bites and was done. :shrug:

1. Why do you hate America?
Actually, if you don't like chocolate, there's more for me. :9

3. you are normal
or i am abnormal also. I eat chocolate once in a while, but at the same time, I can leave it laying in my apt for months without touching it. I still have chocolate I got for Christmas in 2003. Never had that yearning for chocolate.

12. it is true
nothing I can do about it. Ok I could eat it, but for some reason it doesn't turn me on. Only if I can cheat away a bite from my bf :evilgrin:

Well, turning me on wouldn't be what I was going for when eating it. But whatever floats your boat. :)

24. LOL
guess that came out a bit wrong (where is my mind?? - ah right, it left me this morning).
Anyway, what I ment was that chocolate "lacht mich nicht an", meaning I don't feel the pressure of eating chocolate when I see it.

40. I am a big cinnamon fan anyway
and when that sort came out (sold by Italian ice cream parlors) I just jumped up and down.
And 2 years ago I ate a die-for chocolate at the Lago di Garda in Italy. It was so rich ... yummy. Normally I don't like it that much.

5. Um that's not chocolate. That's a processed sugary bit of fake food.
For REAL chocolate, I suggest an indulgance in something as wicked as Godiva.

But other types I can't either. Tried some kind of Godiva before and I couldn't even eat the whole piece.

9. I don't like it either, candy bars in specific.
I never buy them. I can taste the cheapness of it . . . it really turns me off. I also turn my nose up at the blue-box mac and cheese. I say away from processed food as much as I can. When I have chocolate, which is rare as I prefer olives, I go for the good stuff. This happens maybe once every few months.

is FAR superior to any mass-produced crapola. It's got mustard in it as well. :9

41. Eh . . . hmm. That'll take a while.
The problem is I'm one of those 'intuitive' cooks that rarely follows exact recipes for things like this, at least in terms of the quantity of ingredients. I just somehow know how much of what goes in. That means it'll take me a far bit of time to judge the quantities of ingredients and get it all written down. I'll tell you what. I'm going to take a nap in a bit so PM me to remind me about it, and I'll PM you when I post it in the Cooking & Baking group. Deal? :D

but the way you told about it sounds too yummy to not asking for the recipe. I still look for a good recipe for home made mac + cheese. I am tired of Kraft's. I like the taste less and less every time I eat it.

Dove's Milk Chocolate.

Otherwise. . . I have a basement. Even if it takes some Clockwork Orange style work, YOU WILL LOVE CHOCOLATE. :evilgrin:

34. Lindt Swiss Chocolate truffles
The Swiss just make better chocolate. I like the milk chocolate with hazelnuts or pistachios, or the ones filled with kirsch the most.

Three Musketeers is the bottom end of the chocolate world.

51. Chocolate is my nemesis--my vice
It calls me from the package and within the cookies. I hear it while shopping for groceries and at the latte stand. I fight against it constantly. I reward myself for not caving in and having the chocolate donut by having the chocolate donut.

I LOVE chocolate. I HATE chocolate.

64. Three Musketeers ain't what it used to be.
Too sugary. The biggest disappointment though is the Tootsie Roll. What was once a confection of deeply fudgie goodness is now just a caramel.
