Hellcat Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 A man who shares chocolate with his wife? A prince among men! We have a list like Mels, heavily weighted in favour of chocolate in all its forms (choccy cake, to, Clare - with clotted cream on the side), cream, wine, nuts especially Brazil nuts and Ians personal fave - Cheese! Not good at 10.30pm! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 The spotty youngster who works with me does stuff like that too, that's if she has brekkie! She went vegie a while ago, not for moral issues, but because Bryan Adams is veggie That hasn't stopped her eating total rubbish - all additives and white bread, plus chicken flavoured crisps.

Lesley-Jean Posted April 4, 2006 Author Share Posted April 4, 2006 I'm munching my way through a box of In House Chocolates and a box of Holdsworth Chocolates. For scientific comparison purposes of cause. Will report my findings when tests completed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pianissimo Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 I received my latest box from the Chocolate Tasting Club this morning. I'm saving them for Easter! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley-Jean Posted April 4, 2006 Author Share Posted April 4, 2006 SAVING THEM FOR EASTER This is an unknown concept to me, please explain how and why Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 I received my latest box from the Chocolate Tasting Club this morning. I'm saving them for Easter! Chocolate tasting club? OMG! PLease please don't tell me you get PAID for eating chocolate? Do explain! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pianissimo Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 No, I don't get paid. They send me a box of specially commissioned chcolates (2 of each), monthly (or whatever frequency I ask for) and they ask for scores on quality, texture, taste, presentation, etc. Then once a year they also send the top scoring chocolates from the previous 12 months. I am trying to eat a vegan diet during Lent, hence they are in a cupboard where I can forget about them until Easter. As long as you lot don't keep reminding me!!

pianissimo Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Oh yeah - I forgot that bit. I don't get paid, but rather I have to pay for the privilege! Take a look: http://www.hotelchocolat.co.uk/cx1/default_ctc.asp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pianissimo Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 OH NO!! Now you have made me look at the Hotel Chocolat site (linked with the Chocolate Tasting Club). And it turns out they sell vegan chocolate. What do i do now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louise Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 I wasn't helping was I It is easy for me as I don't like dark chocolate at all and obviously being vegan they contain no milk so you need to convince yourself that you really don't like dark choc's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellcat Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Look, you lot, stop talking about chocolate. I keep looking at the hotelchocolat website and convincing myself out of subscribing. You're not helping. If I give in I'll get nagged. And if I do, I'll blame you... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
