If I had money to invest, I might invest in dark chocolate or white tea. Apparently the X-treme sports mentality has infiltrated my life – the darker the chocolate the better, the whiter the tea the better – where will it end? Last night at the coop order (a group of ten women order a $2000 minimum order to get the same – or nearly the same – price as wholesale) there was much ado over the kinds of chocolate ordered. One case of the darkest chocolate Endangered Species makes went like hotcakes. That’s the one with a black panther on the wrapper; it has a 88% cacao content; and it’s called “Extreme Dark Chocolate.”
The second case of chocolate bars was also by Endangered Species: the “Dark Chocolate with Hazelnut Toffee.” That one has a picture of a rhino on it – and it may be my favorite, but it’s too sweet for everyday. I’ll put those by my all-time standby bars: “Dark Chocolate with Espresso Beans” (tiger). I need a minimum of two bars of Tiger stashed in my cheese drawer of the fridge at all times.
The third case was a brand we had never heard of: Chocolove. We’re giving it a shot because they were on sale. I’ll tell you how it goes.
And last chocolate reference; there is a new chocolate company out there called… darn, something like Mommy Nutrition and they were advertising a new chocolate bar called Baby Needs Chocolate (!!!)
Oops, no time for white tea; I’m 23 minutes over by thesis break.
