The chocolate made just mashing cocoa with sugar and vanilla, at first you don't like the rough flour-y textures, but then the pure chocolate invades you

That chocolate can be eaten alone or used to make hot chocolate

Spiciness really brings out the flavour of dark chocolate.

That's why I never eat chocolate unless I have 'vark sauce.

I saw Pamela Geller at a grocery store in Long Island yesterday. I told her how cool it was to meet her in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother her and ask her for photos or anything.
She said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”
I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but she kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing her hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard her chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw her trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in her hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Ma'am, you need to pay for those first.” At first she kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, she stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, she kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

The only chocolate brands in stores near me are Hersheys (for cheap skates), Lindt (for people with money), and Ghirardelli (for people with taste). God bless the Midwest.

The irony is that there's a very good chocolate brand produced in the midwest called Askinosie, but you can't get it outside of coastie bubble enclaves because it has pictures of brown people on it and scary foreign words

Also thank you for reminding me why I moved out. Occasionally I think it might be nice to go hermit mode and buy a mansion in the richest neighborhood of some podunk town, but then I remember it's a food desert and I'd kms

>> No.10829439

>>10829427
I like both milk chocolate and dark chocolate. It depends on my mood, I'm probably about 50/50. I also like both black coffee and coffee with milk. I tend to do black coffee closer to 97% of the time though, because I can't go through enough milk to be worth keeping around before it goes bad.

Anyone other /lowsugar/ advocates here add Cocoa powder to everything?

>Morning oatmeal with a bit of Greek yogurt and PB, add in Cocoa powder
>nut butters mixed with Cocoa powder, eaten with an apple
>For a treat, mix Cocoa powder with some butter and unsweetened apple sauce, freeze in ice cube tray

Once you re-orient your tongue by not piling sugar into your mouth at all times, cocoa powder is a strong but great flavor
