You are wicked!!! :D

 

 

I saw those containers today in Stop and Shop but barely gave them a glance. Didn't look like anything in which I'd be interested. BUT, NOW I know what it is and that store is calling me back. Likely I'll be there tomorrow. :o

. I got it in Stop and Shop in NJ. A little goes a long way. Love the idea of the apple slices.

It was delicious :)

 

And you don't feel so guilty eating all that chocolate because you are having it with fruit *LOL*

I did not know that! I have a glass with lunch every day. :D

Coincidentally I was eating peanut butter with white chocolate on a piece of double fiber whole wheat bread when I happened to read this thread. The peanut butter with white or dark chocolate is available from Peanut Butter and Company in Greenwich Village, either on line here http://ilovepeanutbutter.com/peanut-butter-1.html or in various markets. :D. The dark chocolate comes in regular or extra large -- just for Ruth. ;)

Wow! Look at all the flavors! Thanks for the link Sailandcruise.

Well Ruth, if you need any rationale, then when I was going to my doctor every month last summer while losing 70 lbs (not that I am looking for it :rolleyes:) she MADE me eat dark chocolate as long as it was above 70% content.

 

Back then I was not a chocolate eater. I was a baker and pastry chef to get myself through school and got sick of people always wanting chocolate so I never made it at home. Now I HAVE to have my dark chocolate every day and I blame it on my doctor...she did it....

 

Oh I can't believe I will be on a cruise it 3 months feeling the way I do about chocolate....there is no going back and the Genie is out of the bottle...this is going to be hard to keep within my daily ratio.

 

I made Black Forest Cake with chocolate mousse filling for a friend's birthday on Saturday....and I ATE a piece....unheard of before last summer.....

I was back at Stop and Shop this morning and got the dark chocolate cream cheese.

 

I took a small spoonful and had to toss it. It's way too rich for me. I can't eat such rich, heavy sweets anymore. :( I used to love it.

 

Oh well, at least I satisfied my curiosity.

I'll tell my cardiologist that your doctor made me do it.

Sure, that'll fly. :rolleyes:

You threw away chocolate ??????????? That amounts to blasphemy to some people here *LOL*

 

 

I know what you mean though. It is very rich and a little taste was all I could handle too.

[RuthC]

Believe it or not, Sail, I know what you mean, too. My husband used to make a chocolate cheesecake (called Midnight Madness Pie) that was so rich that I could manage only a small slice at a time. I can imagine that this would be similar, as the cheese base is in common.

Ruth, last cruise on the Westerdam I found the Jacques Torres chocolate shop. Oh my. The absolute best thing was a cocktail called Love of Rum and Chocolate. Now, I am not a drinker by any means but I fell in love with these things. They start with lacing the glass with Godiva chocolate liquor. They then add about a shot and a half of it,

add some Bailey's and some special chocolate rum and then blend away. OMG.

 

Tastes like a chocolate milk shake until you try to stand up. If you haven't tried one next time you are on the Westerdam you should. I don't think any other Vista has the shop.

I've seen it in stores, will have to check it out.

I really wanted to like it but I've been away from such rich sweets for so long now, it just didn't agree with me. Sadly.........

 

[mamaofami]

I brought mine to my daughter's house today. It was too rich for me too.

Trader Joe's had a cheddar cheese with chocolate last year around the holidays. Was it ever YUMMY!

 

Uh oh Nutella at the Lido. I'll have to have some on a croissant. I hope I don't gain back ALL the weight I've lost.
