amstalder 0 #1 August 19, 2011 How does that even happen??? It's all crumbly and separated and gross. It's my nice chocolate that I just bought, too. I'm afraid to go check out the other bar. I hope that one didn't turn craptastic too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

amstalder 0 #6 August 19, 2011 QuoteCan you return it since you just bought it? I probably threw away the receipt. Plus the PX is an hour away, really not worth it. It's all good. I'm just bored tonight and was looking forward to a little chocolate-ing with my internet-ing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Meso 38 #7 August 19, 2011 Is chocolate too girly for dudes to eat? I've come close to saying "I really feel like some chocolate" on several occasions, but then it strikes me that the only people I've ever heard use that line were females. :( It just makes me so... emotional...

wmw999 2,289 #9 August 19, 2011 No, as long as it's manly high-cacao-content (70% or so). That's manly. You can get it with chili peppers in it, too -- that's even more manly. Wendy P.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

Definitely not too girly for dudes. I feel a little weird saying that too. Mostly because I dont like chocolate (especially not dark chocolate), yet lately all I want to eat is dark chocolate. It's bizarre. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

amstalder 0 #21 August 19, 2011 Quote Quote yet lately all I want to eat is dark chocolate. It's bizarre. Any other strange changes in food preferences? Well my tastes have always been strange (for instance I can go weeks eating only Thai food -- currently trying to control that binge). But the changes are swinging towards normal girl food. Mostly just a desire for chocolate and french fries, though, two things I've never been a huge fan of. And why do I feel like I know where you're going with that sly face?

Yeah, but like, no strange cravings for pickle milkshakes or eating chalk or anything weird like that, no? If so, well, you might want to get that checked out! And this whole thread reminds me of what would happen if the producers of "Cops" aired a show on the Food Network: NEXT: When good chocolate goes bad! Bad sweets, bad sweets, whatcha gonna do...
