I don't find these too expensive. However I don't understand why some would find this to be some high-end stuff. Hazelnuts are probably the most disliked nuts in mixed nuts after Peanuts. They're also called filberts.

>>9909142
My parents always get me these when I visit for holidays. They're the only candy I like and I always end up eating the whole box in like a day.

>being so poor that you feel 'classy' buying mass produced branded chocolate covered nuts

lol?

>>9909526
Do you even know how expensive Rocher is? Get the fuck out of here poorfag, don't talk shit about stuff you can't even afford.

>>9909526
That's the joke. Ferrero Rochers are the olive garden of candy.

>>9909501
>Hazelnuts are probably the most disliked nuts in mixed nuts after Peanuts
did you forget brazil nuts?

I don't really want to eat a bowl full of hazelnuts, but they pair really well with chocolate in desserts. Gianduja is one of my favorite things. Ground hazelnuts in dacquoise or praline paste are also excellent. They are an important ingredient in the French baking tradition, so I grew to love them. Those candies in the OP pic are a really shit example of the hazelnut and chocolate combo though. Nutella is even worse.

I never feel sorry for poorfags. Fuck em, I got mine.

>>9909544
I like those more than hazelnuts because they are also called nigger toes

I saw 3 packs of Ferrero rocher at Walmart for $1 each. That's even less than the shitty impulse buy chocolate at the till.

Also what the fuck kind of ripoff is this? Just the shell and no filling? The filling is the best part. Why the fuck would people want to spend $8 for more of the worst part?

I love ferrero rocher, but they're certainly not very fancy

>>9909565

>>9909686
That's low middle class fancy.

I'm poor but mum buys them for me every birthday and Christmas.

They also get a nice discount right after Easter.

People keep giving me fancy-ass praline for Christmas but what I prefer are these.

>>9909686
in what world are macadamia nuts expensive

>>9909589
>>9909595
These are good.

>>9909142

These are complete trash.

Why is candy regarded as "childish," yet alcohol is not even though it makes you piss and shit yourself like a child?
Can opinions be changed?

Something like: https://www.fevechocolates.com/shop/9-piece-single-origin-dark-chocolate-truffles

This isn't the exact ones I buy (I don't want to give away my location with my local artisan chocolate place), but it's a very similar item.

>>9910360
>poor people will never have this
>they'll never know how it feels to attend a black tie event and eat the worlds greatest chocolate free of charge

>>9910369
Generally true, yes. Refined sugar easily overpowers subtle flavors and reduces complexity in almost all usages. The advantage of this to the producer is that it also eliminates unpleasant flavors, but it tends to also make food less interesting.

This is also often true of salt.

You're dumb

>>9910515
Not him, but actually you're dumb. Hazelnuts are garbage tier. Pistachios are objectively better in every way.

>>9910556
To be clear, peanuts aren't actually nuts so can't be rated amongst nuts. You knew that, didn't you?

DO
AMERICANS

>>9910692
He's not wrong though
>>9910694
Americans know better because Americans are familiar with brazil nuts aka NIGGER TOES which are clearly the worst. Next to that even peanuts are like ambrosia from the gods

>>9909523
>a cheap cut of milk cow meat with a biig ass chunk of fat in the middle
>""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""kobe"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

>>9910692
Lindt is genuinely bad, deal with it. I live in a nation with hundreds of brands and Lindt is fucking garbage that people buy when they have no idea what to gift. The only “good” Lindt candy is the red one with the caramel cream filling (Lindor was it called?).

>>9910299
Europe at least. Can't be grown locally, unlike hazelnuts, amonds or chestnuts.

>>9910709
US too. And not only are they expensive they start going rancid seconds after the harvest.

>>9909142
>that feel when year was so good you can get both red and black at the same time.

>>9910716
you should have gotten more of the black one, red caviar is shit anyway

Hotel Chocolat aren't quite as upmarket as in some previous years, when they used to do a few of these in oak boxes with fancy marquetry.

But it's still good, and they make reasonably good gifts for those that like chocolate.

>>9910732
Gotta eat the bad to try let enjoy the good.

>>9910751
I'm 12, and what is this?

>>9909142

>>9909755
That's a giant ferrero rocher filled with normal ones you retard.

>>9909142
They sell FR at my local dollar store

>>9911754
Yeah maybe a dollar for a trial of one, and one per customer. You can't just get your hands on Rocher easily if you don't come from money.

>>9911756
It was like $1 for 3, next to all the other candy bars

I like them but it's not what rich people eat. It's what poor people eat to feel rich.

Upper class parties usually serve fruit and nuts and trendy health-food

Middle class parties have the best spreads because they're much more materialistic.

Eh, if i'm splashing out on chocolate i usually go for Hotel Chocolat or Charbonnel et Walker. typically i'd just get some boring old Lindt chocolates though.

I mean theres pricier stuff, but the next tier of chocolate is out of my usual budget.

>>9910369

a piece of candy is a piece of candy. the bar is very, very low. the best piece of candy in the world is a little better than anything you find in a checkout line.

>>9911775
Stop ruining the joke you autist.

>>9912523
it's the manipulation of textures and flavours and how you compile something together is what makes a good candy bar, look at aero/kitkat/reese they are not just standard boiled sweet or slab of chocolate, it's the way how it's put together and tastes, there's thought put into it.

>>9912467
That's a lot in Australian dollar

ITT: Poorfag who thinks fucking ferrero rocher, which is literally in Walmart checkout lines, is a luxury food

>>9914572

Richfag here, I hate Ferrero Rocher and fags like op wont stay rich for long if that's what they believe. That hard plastic shell is clearly the biggest cost in manufacturing and a gigantic waste of resources and currency. That is what you're paying for when you spend money on Ferrero Rocher. Here's your (You).

>>9914828
>That hard plastic shell
I use it for storing earphones in baka desu, probably the best part of the whole deal.

>>9914841

It's almost as if you're not paying for anything except its brand and packaging. Actual rich people will hire chefs to make this shit handmade on their yachts and at their champagne conferences, not buy mass produced wasteful shite like in ops pic

>>9914866
b-but the ambassador told me it was quality chocolate!?

Jokes aside Rocher is actually really nice despite the retarded "it's for rich people" marketing.

I don't recall one product I don't like from ferrero.

>>9914871
I don't get the "it's for rich people" vibe, it's sold in every single store.
It's more of a "I have no idea what to gift for Christmas" type of chocolate.

>>9909142
I fucking love Ferrero Rocher. The ambassador always gets it in at his receptions. Dude has exquisite taste.

>>9915394
in my country of brasil there is a series of television adverts that show a festival at the embassy and the rich people are eating ferrero rocher. it's a popular thing to joke of because ferrero is considered crap food for american yankees, no rich people eat ferrero rocher here, except in shit places like belém where the rich are from drugs traffic and they have no culture. maybe it is like your version of «fly over land», is that what you say?

I do not know if this is a shared advert in all countries, have you not seen this?

>>9915403
I'm in Europe and everybody receives these for Chritsmas. I honestly cannot recall any advert, I just remember one with a woman in a golden dress. But still, it's about 5-6 euros for a whole box of it and I get them all the time from people (ironically enough poorfags) who have no clue what to give to me.

>>9915403
i really don't see adverts for ferrero rocher, but its by no means high class or anything like that
they're rather cheap around the holiday's and presumable the rest of the yearwhen i don't have any real desire to buy them

>>9910735
probably the only post truly reflecting what OP was looking for. Everything else is cheap or terrible tasting or both

>>9915403
HUE HUE HUE

>Guy buying $10 chocolate trying to convince everyone hes patrician

>>9911775
Obvious counterfeits. Please state your location, I must report this to Mr. Rocher immediately.

Black caviar but ONLY because people sometimes buy that weird salty imitation black caviar at super markets and think it's the real thing.

As for the real stuff, it's okay, but it seems like truffles have taken over the true test of delicacy.

>>9915560
My grandfather was in the caviar business before he passed away. It's generally something people try to convince themselves it is great, just because poor people can't afford it. Very very overrated

I use cooking chocolate for this (Nestle is common and cheap enough here). It's meant to be melted and used for baking, but it's good on it's own.

>>9910706
It's not bad. There are many chocolates that are truly disgusting, Lindt is at least almost good.
It's expensive as fuck for its quality though.

there aren't really any foods that poor people can't afford except some dishes and of course incorporating those things into daily usage
