Chocolate Reality


From my Birthday Surprise on Nov. 30, 2013
There is chocolate and then.....
there is dark chocolate!
Delicious, deep brown bars, bonbons or syrups.
Milky browns bars and bonbons are ok.
White, not quite chalky white, well - in my reality, is not real chocolate.

Yes, they are all made from cocoa beans.
And yes, they are all loved by someone.

These, dare I say, pale imitations of real chocolate seem sadly devoid of the real richness and opulence of dark chocolate ~
(70% or more is much preferred)

However.....
those of us that like ~ prefer ~ absolutely adore dark chocolate
are an especial breed, although not all are purists!

.....I do sample the others to be certain....

“One cannot develop taste from what is of 
average quality but only from the very best.”
~ Johann Wofgang von Goethe
