I am a milk chocolate type of girl. Someone got us a box of assorted gharadeli chocolates for Christmas and there was one that I went crazy for, dark chocolate with salted caramel. It was so good.
Isn't that a great movie?! :nod:Any chocolate is fine. Favorite is white, with semisweet a close second. And I put chocolate IN my chili. You don't really taste the chocolate, it just adds a very nice, subtle something to it. Even my favorite movie is Chocolat. No wonder I'm half the size of a good draft horse!
You are kinda sorta right. There isn't any cocoa liquor in white chocolate, so it isn't. It is pure coaca butter, so it is. It is either the least or the most chocolate of all chocolates, but who knows? I know it's very tasty, especially when made into peppermint bark, or when in cookies with macadamia nuts.
I'm surprised at how often "white" chocolate is listed as a favourite.
I'll be honest, I don't even consider white chocolate to be chocolate. To me, if it isn't, well chocolate coloured, then it's not chocolate at all. It's vanilla!
YES! AND with Johnny Dep! Although, truth told, I'm far more enamoured of Cpt Sparrow than I am of Johnny Depp. But I love the movie. A Chocolate Shaman...what could be better? Cocoa Magick! Hmmmmmmm...maybe all those treats on Halloween are really little Happy Spells for kids? NO NO NO don't get me started!Isn't that a great movie?!
I LOVE it. "Chocolate Shaman and Cocoa Magick." :nod:Isn't that a great movie?! :nod:

With or without marshmallows!!Good Morning.
Let's talk about chocolate! Do you like white, milk or plain? Fruit and nut or just pure chocolate? How about the more exotic combinations, chocolate and ginger, green tea flavour or chocolate with chilli?What's your favourite way to eat chocolate? Ice-cream, cake, pudding or just big chunks of it?
I rarely eat chocolate, but every now and then I'll get a craving. I like the very bitter, 70% cacao stuff. A little square goes so well with lemon tea. I'm not big on deserts, but I love a steaming mug of hot chocolate on cold winter evenings.
How about you?
When the kids were small, I made them carob cake instead of chocolate cake healthier.i don't 'do' chocolate -- it's the caffeine in it that i don't want. i love carob though, which is kind of similar but really not the same taste as chocolate.
It's not really chocolate... don't know the science behind it (and don't care tbh because it won't change my mind about loving it) but I really do love it! Ever since I had a white chocolate lindor truffle I was in love. They are expensive but I usually get them around Christmas and a white Russell stover bunny around Easter. I just prefer it, it's what makes me happy. Dark chocolate isn't my thing; but I will eat it.

It is technically not chocolate. I'd still take it over milk chocolate any day. Here's the explanation regarding white chocolate. My DH loved it. DD does too.

What does it do to your system?Oh I love chocolate, but it can be a cruel mistress to my system sometimes. Well too bad, because I'm not giving it up! I do not like the dark stuff---too bitter. I usually eat white chocolate, it doesn't hit me as bad as the regular chocolate. I like it when it's drizzled on fruit and on nuts.Usually I eat WAY too much of it around Christmas! :lol3: :nod:
Well, I have a hard time digesting it, so it goes right to my bowels and I have quite a time of it on the throne, if you know what i mean. Plus, it can give me heartburn, and if it isn't prepared well, it also makes me vomit quite forcefully, and just a s fast, which then gives me a sinus headache. With white chocolate, it isn't nearly as bad.What does it do to your system?
Poor old thing. No migraine?Well, I have a hard time digesting it, so it goes right to my bowels and I have quite a time of it on the throne, if you know what i mean.
