Have we done chocolate?
Posted by: Dave J on 29 October 2003
What with all the recent and frankly inspiring talk of pizza and curry, I don't recall seeing anything about the third essential component of a sound and healthy diet, namely chocolate.
What's the consensus - do the Swiss really know anything about it or is it just the Belgians that can pipe a praline. Has anyone tried any of the excellent varietals that you can pick up in Madrid and Barcelona? What about Rococo on the Kings Road? What about the excellent little boxes of chocolates that Tom gets in Tunbridge Wells? Why does Hershey's sound so glamorous on this side of the Atlantic yet taste so vile with it's distinct aroma of baby vomit?
Anyone mentions Cadbury's though and your out.

I'm not really a heathen, just help 'em out when they're busy 
And whilst I remember, one of my favourite treats is plain chocolate Bath Olivers, but you only seem to be able to get them at the time of year that dare not speak its name

Strangely enough Tom, I don't actually eat the Choc-Ollies with cheese
