The death of chocolate

[East]

Would I be correct in stating that pistachio is one of your favorite ice cream flavors? It certainly is one of mine. It's quite (the other) orgasm in my mouth.

OMG..Double Rainbow White Pistachio Ice Cream...my taste buds have an orgasm...seriously...It has that catnip effect on me....have you ever had the Double Rainbow orgasm?





Pistachios are my go to snack as well....

No one is perfect.

Let's not speak of this indelicate topic again.

Well...If you tie me down and play the right music...and turn down the lights...you can put some real dark chocolate in my mouth.... and I may respond favorably...

That's rather ambiguous. PLEASE don't clarify that you meant alcohol.

It wasn't alcohol...

^ It was all I could think of to help you fight that ice cream craving, Derek. I've turned better men's stomach's, I'll have you know!


And, I try to amuse, Bruce. You KNOW I do.

I agree that it is indeed all hype. The vast amount of money in the chocolate industry will see to it that price and demand meet at the right point on the slope.

I'm also not concerned that corn is displacing cacao in regions where disease have devastated cacao. Better a needed food crop be planted there than a failing cacao crop.

Finally, if fine chocolate were to become more rare, then it logically should become more precious, which is a good thing for chocolate lovers, as volume doesn't rival quality. And to that point, the vast, vast majority of the world's chocolate eaters are not in fact discerning connoisseurs, but hogs at the trough. Throw in another pail of low-grade cocoa, and they'll never notice.

Corn doesn't compare to the food of the God's known as Cacao. Also you have to make sure they do not plant GMO Corn!

All that dark chocolate, which needs most cacao can go to hell anyway. Tastes like medicine to me.

EXACTLY! dark chocolate tastes like crap. it is puke.

this doesn't make any sense though:

Last year, we again consumed more cocoa than we were able to produce.

or this:

From 1993 to 2007, the price of cocoa averaged $1,465 a ton; during the subsequent six years, the average was $2,736 — an 87 percent increase.

another joke thread?

YES! pistachio ice cream is pretty much the ONLY ice cream i eat. if it's available there's no point in getting any other flavor.
