Pfft. It's very good indeed, but Valrhona is better.
I couldn't decide.
BTW, white chocolate is not chocolate. It's fat and sugar.
White chocolate is food of the Gods.
Monkeys appear, from the outsider's point of view, at least, to have really rotten perfunctory sex.
Not as awful as dogs - but pretty awful.
Just wondering what all this "mad monkey sex" stuff was...
Rufio:
White chocolate is the opressive chocolate of the man! Made to perpitrate real chocolate and hold real chocolate down by taking up valuable shelf space at the grocery. White chocolate and its lies of deliciousness are INFUSED in our society and there is no way that real chocolate will be free until the lies of the MAN have been exposed!

Yes, TTF; I share your Marxist position. White chocolate (mere fat and sugar sans antioxidants) is the optiate of the masses.
Join JL and I to fight the our opressors! We are antidiswhitechocolateestablishmentterrorists!
Fight the power brother!
TF
I'll join the fight against white chocolate!
Cadbury's Royal Dark Chocolate is quite luscious...umm..
I'm partial to belgian chocolate, in the form of my local chocolatier's Sjaak's chocolates, and rather keen on the chocolates I bought at a wee bar in Parma, sob, I'm not there, but I haven't tried all the fancy numbers like valhrona. Have tried Scharfenberger. sp? Ok, beats Hershey's, Nestles, etc. Hmm, Nestles bought Perugina, as I understand it..
I picked, of course, chocolate.
Onward, TTF. Now I know what gives life meaning, fighting the just cause.
It appears that it up to us to give our lives whatever meaning it will or will not have.
That being the case, there is no doubt that chocolate and (and good strong coffee) indeed spices, intensifies, and adds to the illusory quality of this dream.
Well, if you're going to be serious, let me suggest it is not the abstract general categories of things that give my life meaning; it's the concrete particular events of each moment. THEY are what define being alive. Therefore it's not the IDEA of chococlate but the actual tastING that is the meaning of certain "chocolate moments". It is not HAVING CHILDREN but cuddling them or taking them to first-day kindergarten. It's not the idea of cuddling and taking to kindergarten. Life is living. All efforts to make it more than that, to make it "meaningful" at the level of idea robs us, or at least distracts us, from the actual experiencING. I should say that the anticipation of an impending bout with chocolate (dark, not white) can be part of the real pleasure. Remember the old French saying about sex. The best thing about it is walking upstairs.
Great post, and I remember about the stairs.

Points well spoken, JLN.
However,[/b]I strongly disagree with this last line. If there is one time when I agree its best to Be Here Now, and not live in the past or future, its during lovemak
ING!
I feel pity for whoever said that part about walking upstairs and sex. They must not have had the best of partners! (Or perhaps they had an exceptionally great imagination . . . hmm . . . perhaps I could look into acquiring one of those).

Unfortunately, I live in a one-story house.
...but the path to heaven is a spiral staircase.
I'm not sure I understand you, but I'm turned on nevertheless.
I have the image of a spiral staircase winding up to the chocolate pantry.
I though the "chocolate experience" have more to do with endorphins than with philosophy.
