Yeah, sure, and you also drink cows if they're drawn on the milk carton. I'm not going to mention the person who thought that when that person was younger... :lol:
I mean if we could drink/eat whatever's on things, then I'm sure everytime I see something with a chocolate bar on it I will walk up to it and eat it since I like chocolate. :lol:
I’d literally just draw a pizza or whatever I fancied at the time on paper :lol:

This would have been a better time to use the new spinning boon, if there was ever a time. :lol:

I'm not sorry either. If only Hunch could make this an emoticon thing! :lol:

All this talk about chocolate is making me crave it right now. I feel like a good creamy milk chocolate.

lol Wait a minute, someone seriously thought that? :lol:

The imagination of some folks... Fortunately none of us here think that, right guys?
You'd be more accurate if you say The imagination of some kids :lol:

Maybe if you ask Hunch nicely enough, he might consider it! :mrgreen:

Okay, as long as you do your homework first, and get the milk from a nice chocolate cow. Not them fake ones though. The real ones. :hap: :fou:

Okay, now focusing on chocolate...
As Christmas is approaching, it's very common to see turrón in the Spanish supermarkets. I don't know if it has a name in English, but In Italy it's named as torrone and in France is known as touron. For those who don't know what it is, let's say it's some kind of nougat.
Arguably, the Suchard turrón is the best chocolate turrón you can eat. It's more expensive that the other ones, but trust me when I say it really costs every single euro :mrgreen:

Interesting. I've never actually heard of it though, and for a moment I thought you were talking about Toblerone or something. :lol:

I'm used to having chocolate at Christmas though with that being said, since we often end up with tins of chocolate sweets.

I like having chocolate candy, but I'd prefer to have chocolate chip or peanut butter cookies for Christmas. So nice, chewy and delicious! :yum:

Which reminds me, I have a bag of mint chocolate mom gave me, it's pretty good.

Do you guys like going for mint chocolate this time of year?

Toblerone is an incredible chocolate (the white one is surprsingly amazing, I saw that for the very first time in Andorra :D), but this one I'm talking about has nothing to envy to Toblerone :P

I find that common for people who hate mint or mint chocolate to say that it tastes like toothpaste. That could be a good prank though, hiding toothpaste in Oreos instead of the creme that's usually there. :P

I find mint chocolate delicious though. A nice refreshing taste blended with a nice and smooth dark chocolate.

Yeah I just thought the name looked similar for some reason. :P

Would this be a bad place to mention I use chocolate deodorant? I used it in Ireland as Lynx, and now in Sweden as Axe. Is smelling like chocolate illegal? :mrgreen:

I remember a few years ago a youtuber decided to prank homeless people with this. He got banned from YouTube and had to pay 20k euros to the victim :fou:

Btw... Has anyone tried mixing the Schwarzbier taste with chocolate? You'll find a pleasant surprise... ;)

Ngl, I alternate between Axe Chocolate and Axe Gold. So no, you're not the only one :lol:

Well I don't think smelling like chocolate would be illegal. I use cocoa butter lotion to hydrate my skin when I have it. :D

That's a lot of herbs for an alcohol, but it sounds like it would be good, but I wonder if this would change of the hot chocolate itself or would it remain a nice cocoa brown?
It looks exactly the same as a good old plain hot chocolate. It's the taste that's enhanced. :proud:

I remember having some of those when I was in Madrid last year. They gave me way too much chocolate but I think I ended up drinking it. :manger:

I love turrón, both the hard and soft versions. I'm not sure I've tried chocolate turrón though. Another Spanish treat I like a lot is the mantecados.

How confusing can a single vowel be, huh?

I would like to try this sometime! Dipping churros into some nice chocolate sauce. Yums! :D

I forgot to mention it, but ironically one of the things my mother sent me over was a Dairy Milk, which is very ironic, given the nature of this topic a while back. :lol:

Yes, and then we suddenly shifted to chocolate deodorant! Funny how we came to this subject, considering I originally bumped this topic asking how people like their hot chocolate and then the question somehow ended up being forgotten. Man speaking of hot chocolate, it doesn't really feel cold enough for me to have any. :lol:

Great that you got some nice Dairy Milk chocolate though, that's going to be deliciously creamy. :yum:

Recently tried out this Chuao chocolate and found it had a pretty nice taste compared to normal supermarket chocolate. Wish there were more quality chocolate shops near me.
