"Yum..."
I have been a little piggy this evening, and scoffed my way through a bar of Terry's chocolate orange; just a bar, mind you, not a whole 'tap it, and unwrap it' orange (although I could quite easily have wolfed one of those as well...) No, this was just the bar, and it was the best that our local Spar had to offer. But as I was sitting here, eating it, it got me to thinking how it was really a very poor substitute for my much preferred organic, dark chocolate from Green & Black's.
"A poor substitute..."
Any Green & Black's is scrummy, but my particular faves are the Maya Gold, and the Dark & Almond.
"Particular faves..."
So, I pose the question, what is your chocolate of choice? And marks out of ten for the inconsequentiality of this post!!!

And my starter for ten on the subject of chocolate - yum yum!!!
I love the really dark bitter choccie but will eat pretty much any milk choccie. But, not that awful choccie flavour stuff - That is just wrong.
Ooh, not very keen on white choccie as it's too sickly for my delicate palete.
But, I lurve, lurve, lurve violet and rose creams - scrumdiddlyumptios.
Well, you did ask xxx
hmm, I am strange cos my fav is the Caramac bar, cheap and cheerful me - and anyway does that actually count as chocolate??
Must say though had G&B samples when I went to Proms in the Park last year and the orangy one was a bit nice :)
Well, my fave was Nestle Double Cream but I don't think they make it anymore *sob* so, I'll go for Galaxy! Most definately not Cadburys in any shape or form!
Stop posting pictures of chocolates! Now i am in need!
My fave luxury choc is Thorntons vanilla truffles, shop choc would have to be a double decker!
Actually there are few things in life more important than chocolate so not a very inconsequential post at all (marks 0 out of 10, sorry!).
Fave chocolate .... love the Lindt little red balls whatever they are called, also the pistachio bars which is a bit of a bugger as Sainsburys have stopped stocking it and I don't know where else to buy it. Oh and Thorntons Viennese truffles (used to work there what a lucky girl was I?!)
For every day I like chewy stuff like double deckers and twix cos it takes just that little bit longer to eat!
I love dove dark chocolate, I prefer a high cocoa content, lol

Oooh, chocolate, drool drool. My favourite, far too hard to pick one, but I'm with Ann on the caramac bars, delish. If I could only have one though, it would have to be....no, I can't do it, lol!
Hmmmmm....is it wrong to say I'd rather have crisps?If I do ever have chocolate, I like Thorntons Lemon Parfait Mousse bar thingees...fluffy and lemony!
Hee hee a conversation about chocolate - just up my street! I used to love the Terry's choc orange but now find it too greasy. I love anything Cadbury's because I missed it so much growing up in France. I love choc buttons especially cos I'm a kid at heart. In France they eat a lot of dark choc so I choose 70% cocoa Lindt or something, and it's delish stuffed in a bit of baguette - the true original Pain au Chocolat French kids have for their gouter (tea). I also have quite a thing for Galaxy... But I think the one bar I do buy more than everything else is Twirl - like my old fave Flake but more of it. Mmmm. I'm a bit peckish now! PS OOoooh Caramac YUM!!
Another Green & Blacks fan - we always have plenty in! My fave is currently the Butterscotch, but I also love mint, and maya gold and... well, all of them!
I also adore Hotel Chocolat. And the very naughty people have just opened a shop in Plymouth. I popped in today and it's likewalking into Heaven... A verrrrry expensive heaven LOL
i like bogies covered in galaxy.
protein in its most purest form
I always give Kinder a 10 out of 10....really truly love it!! It seems like such a special treat to me (still) since we can't it in the states!
Oh, and I second Fiona...LOVE LOVE LOVE Hotel Chocolat!!!!!!!!!
I got to be Cadburys for me, when I actually have chocolate that is, Like Jen I'd rather have a pkt of crisps or some garlic bread!
Cannot stand Galaxy, Had a freebie Green and Blacks the other day (buttercotch) was nice, but I would buy a whole one!
I do love Hershey Kisses. When we are in England we stock up on Kit Kats because they are much better than our American ones.
see - you post about chocolate and get 16 responses!!
um...... mars bars from the fridge (such a chav!)
i love chocolate in any form, but my fav has got to be a big bar of anything my dh doesnt like cos that is the only way i get to eat it all. lol i swear he sniffs it out i like to eat a square or two and then back in the fridge for later unfortunatly sniffer man enters and the choc is no more. lol mind you i love ben and gerrys cherry garcia and he doesnt so i get all the choc chunks to myself hee hee.
christine
Oh Lord how do you choose just one favourite choc ... love anything with nuts/praline/plain choc/toffee ... so you see I'm a bit of a loose woman when it comce to the big "C" lol
I was a Green and Black's almond fan, but I just tried a freebie of Butterscotch - mmm, new favourite! You have to try some.
Hi there!
Our American chocolate--at least the kind that can be picked up at the supermarket--isn't anywhere near as good as what you have in Britain, sad to say. But there are a few goodies here and there.
Of the supermarket chocolate, I probably like Dove dark chocolate bars the best, followed by Skor or Heath bars (mm, crunchies).
