Sorry I know I'm posting alot :o

Anyway. As I sit here eating my Triple Chocolate Kit Kat Bar I wonder how many people outhere like Chocolate.


I personally Love any kinds of chocolate as I was (and still am) raised on Chocolate. There is only one type of Chocolate I don't absalutly LOVE and that is plain Dark I feel that Dark was meant to be with something else.

By the way did you know that a Chocolate craving is a real craving.

I try to avoid sweets at all costs, but, every once in a blue moon, I'll eat some junk food. I like stuff with nuts, like hershey's with almonds, or snickers, baby ruth...caramel's good with chocolate.... i like plain m&ms (but have to have something salty with them)... krackel and whatchamacallit, they're also good. it's about six months since i had any, though! I may have to get one tonight, though, all this thinking of chocolate! :)

i love all chocolate! but i prefere milk chocolate, dark chocolate is ok, but i have to be in the mood for it. i don't like white chocolate by it's self, but it's really good with milk or dark chocolate. i don;t think it has very much taste (white) oh yeah and i don't really lik things in my chocolate (nuts, toffee etc.) but i'll never say no to some chocolate :D

I LOVE chocolate. I'm not too keen on dark chocolate, but milk chocolate, white chocolate, and every other kind of chocolate is simply irresistable.

They are almost always the first candy bar I'll reach for if I'm standing in front of the vending machine. They're yummy. We must be kindred spirits. :)

I totally love and crave anything chocolate! I read that it is actually like a drug and increases serotonin so it is an antidepressant:) I think it may be one of the main foodgroups, too:D I mean, it has dairy and legume right? It is GOOD for you!
Favorite candy bar....probably Butterfinger

I am ADDICTED to Whatchamacallits!! We still remember the first time that I found a box of those here on base. I got super excited and bought about 5:rolleyes: :D :D ...
and I wonder why I've put on 25 lbs since getting married :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

I'll eat ANY kind of chocolate when I'm in the mood. If I'm not in the mood for it, I end up gagging and wanting to puke it back out. My all time favorite is toblerone! :D

OMG! How could I have forgotten. Excluding candy bars, my favorite chocolates are ferrero rocher and mon cheris (not the kind with the cherry liquid). :) THOSE I have a very hard time resisting. I just try to avoid them completely!

I just put "other" because I LOVE white chocolate, really like milk chocolate, and don't really care for dark chocolate.

I love chocolate, especially milk and white chocolate. I agree that dark chocolate is better with something instead of alone.

I consider anything coated in chocolate health food because the chocolate will protect it from germs.:D

Yummy, Chocolate! I love it all! I am also addicted to chocolate. It is also my comfort food! Hmmmm, is chocolate a food?

Yes it is!;)

I am not much of a chocolate eater, myself. I choose to get fat on other stuff! :o But I do love the occasional Reece's Pnut butter cup or a Snickers Bar. :)

MMMMMMM, chocolate....I like it. I don't really crave it though. But I'll eat it if it's around. I prefer cake type things over candy bars. Sweets aren't my problem, things like burgers and fries are :)

Every once in a while I'll binge on chocolate *I like all chocolate btw*, I love the stuff but it doesn't love me. I get waaaay too wired *boing boing* My mom made this face :rolleyes: when I discovered Mocha coffee lol. *Chocolate and coffee were made for eachother I think* I'll be wired for days if I drink one of those Frappachino things, or one of those new Starbucks drinks. Coffee in itself makes me bounce off the walls, add chocolate and there's real big trouble hehe.

A justification for all of us, chocolate addicts A friend sent me this some time ago:

CHOCOLATE IS A VEGETABLE.!!!

Chocolate is derived from cocoa beans.
Bean = vegetable

Sugar is derived from either sugar cane or sugar BEETS.

Both of them are plants, in the vegetable category.
Thus, chocolate is a vegetable.

To go one step further, chocolate candy bars also contain milk, which is dairy. So candy bars are a health food.

Chocolate-covered raisins, cherries, orange slices and strawberries all
count as fruit, so eat as many as you want.

Remember - - -

ÒSTRESSEDÓ
spelled backward is
ÒDESSERTSÓ

I'm not much of a chocolate person...

I only like the choc. from Reese's PB Cups, Frerro Rochers, or Snickers. Other than that, NO! I like White Chocolate though, can't STAND Dark Choc. I don't even like chocolate cake, bars, frosting, ice cream... YUCK!

I love all types of chocolate, though I rarely eat it. Once in awhile I splurge. :)

My one weak spot is chocolate with caramel. ohhhhh *drools*

I put only some because I can't stand the dark chocolate. I wish I thought it was all gross! Unfortunately, for me, it's one of the food groups. I love chocolate. I could almost just live on it.

Oooohhh Choccy - my favourite food in the whole world - yep any kind - dark, milk or white - give me. give me, give me!!!

As I sit typing with a Cadbury flake dribbling all over the keyboard (sorry Debbie - wish I could share with you!) I have a theory about chocolate - one one hand dark chocolate - on the other hand milk chocolate - result? A balanced diet!!!

I love any chocolate - Toblerone, Maltesers, Mars, Dairy Milk, Terry's Plain, Black Magic, M & M's - either chocolate or nut - I'm not fussy! - Crunchie, Smarties, Caramel, oh you get the general idea - sorry if some of these are not known in USA.

Right - I'm off to the fridge to get some more................

Omegosh - I almost forgot about the yummy European chocolates! Let's see...there was one in grocery stores like our Hershey bars called a Ritter Sport and my favorite was Marzipan. Then there were kinder-eggs that had white chocolate AND milk chocolate and a surprise inside! OOH! We would get a box of these really pretty chocolates - I think from Belgium but not sure - shaped like seashells and swirled with white - oh so good!!! There was a chocolate factory somewhere near Zweibruecken. Gosh - can any chocolate be *yucky*?? NOT!
ahhhhh Cadbury - can't beat THAT!!!!
THIS is a YUMMY thread:D

I absolutely LOVE dark chocolate! YUMM! and white chocolate. After those two, plain old milk chocolate does nothing for me. Here at my office, the managing partner is a chocoholic. We buy chocolate by the CASE and it's everywhere! M&M's (both plain and peanut), those mini Hershey bars in all varieties - we fight over who gets the dark ones, Hershey's kisses & hugs, mini Snickers bars and for our birthdays we have the choice of getting flowers or a 2 lb. box of Sees .... guess which one I always get? :p We warn anyone who starts working here that they will gain at least 5 lbs. their first month, but we are a very happy bunch. :D

I love chocolate. A day without chocolate is a bad day indeed :)

My favourite is Haigh's chocolate truffles with mandarin or pineapple filling inside. Or their chocolate frogs, or freckles, or honeycomb block, or berry chocs, or rocky road, or marshmallow kokettes, or caramel filled chocs, or plain dark dessert block. :D

Is chocolate still considered a girl's best friend???
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it and I'm glad I'm not alone!!!
Of course I love chocolate anything...ice cream, cookies, cakes, candy. I merchandise bakery products so, I get to have chocolate quite often. Oh, I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing!!!
;)
I don't care for dark chocolate either, it must be an acquired taste. My husband likes me to buy it so he can put peanut butter on it and eat it that way!!! :p

06-11-2004, 12:01 AM
Oh......has anyone tried any of the "new" candy bars, I think there's a white chocolate peanut butter cup, nestle toll-house candy bar, hmmm, and the crunchy snickers and m&m's are fairly new too right?
I didn't care for any of these....I like the original myself!!!

Oh I've tried those crunchy M&M's and thought they were not good! Uurrgghhhh.:(

Hope you managed to get to the store PCB!! Poor thing all alone and NO chocolate - that's cruel:D :eek: :D

YES, I love the white chocolate versions (only had the white Crackle) BUT somehow, they don't quite seem like CHOCOLATE - they will do as a *sweet* but they aren't really CHOCOLATE :D
Of course I will not refuse them....

totally depends. for example a chocolate bar like a coffee crisp or kit kat, pretty much only a thin layer of milk chocolate then yummm, otherwise I am not a huge fan, anything too sweet hurts my teeth, so am am not a big fan of chocolate anymore.

I love chocolade, but not every day. I can get an urge to eat chocolade for 3-4 days, and then go without it for weeks. ;)

I prefer dark quality chocolade and filled.

These are the ones I prefer:

Homemade chocolade truffles - like these:

Anthon Berg
Ritter sport, dark - with nuts - with coconut
Ferrero Rocher
Cadbury's Bourneville
sometimes Fazer

... and lastly, here are some chocolade recipees. :D
