Chocolate frenzy.
After a visit to shoes, ships and sealing wax and all the talk about chocolate got me thinking about my own sweet tooth.
I have three major weaknesses in life Root beer, Cadburys crème eggs and Dairy milk
Ok root beer is not a chocolate but it's my post so puthhhhh.
Anyway for those of you who don't know, you cannot buy root beer in the UK Which is a real shame and a little bit of a pain for me, I have to wait for an American friend of mine to bring some over. Cadburys crème eggs and Dairy milk however are easy to come buy, but I try to avoid them as much as possible otherwise I would be as huge as a house.
But the reason for this post is this.
Yes you are seeing correctly it is a Hershey bar in a frame.
The story is simple, about 6 years ago I had a conversation with Sara (my American friend) about chocolate in the US, Now I had always been told by friends who had visited the US that if I ever went not to eat Hershey chocolate. She was rather taken a back by this and proceeded to tell me how great it was and that she would bring me some back after her next visit home.
About a month later she appears on my doorstep brandishing 3 Hershey bars. 1 normal and 2 cookies & mint.
So here is the scene Me, Vicky, My flatmate and Sara sat in the lounge waiting for a taste of this chocolate, We all took a piece and popped it in our mouth's.
BLEGHHHH
Simultaneously all of us, bar Sara, Spat out the chocolate square. "That's fucking awful," proclaimed my flatmate (he was always one for tact) and I did have to admit, I agreed with him. I am really, really sorry to all my American readers I don't mean to dis your chocolate but I really hated it. It tasted like floor sweepings. Now, I know that there are people who have tasted chocolate from the UK and feel the same about ours, but the reason I have framed this bar is as a reminder that you should always try things at least once and that there are always more bars of chocolate.
UPDATE: since this post i have recently tried Hershey kiss's and there not bad.
