$13.14 - - The Review


Okay, so I got home from prepping a job yesterday with my taste buds all geared up for chocolate. I ran inside and went to grab the hi milk chocolate bar and it was nowhere to be found. I knew right away that it had met it's demise at the hands of my favorite chocoholic (Andrew). When I asked him about it, he didn't even bother denying it.

I said, "Um, honey. Did you eat all of the chocolate bar in the red wrapper?"

and he said, "Yes. Yes I did. But do you want to know why I ate it? I ate it because you left it sitting in the sun and it had turned into a big melty blob."

I thought for a second and then said, "So you didn't even eat a candy bar. You just ate a big melty blog of chocolate?"

"Yes, " he said (with an enormous amount of pride).

"So you basically did not eat it, because you can't resist chocolate? You ate it to save it from an untimely, melty chocolate death?"

"Exactly."

"I was going to do a taste test on that, honey. Great! Well can you at least tell me how it tasted?"

"Good. Milky. Chocolate-y"

I mean do you really need any more of a review than that? I don't think so. In fact his simple review of the chocolate inspired me to create my own simple review. Here it is:

All of the 3 chocolate bars: Good. Milky. Chocolate-y (the white chocolate reminded us both about our childhood. i remember feeling very sophisticated when i ate white chocolate. Oh, and I guess that one wasn't chocolate-y, but it was creamy)
Hello Kitty Soda: Looked like coconut milk, tasted like sprite.
Hello Kitty Apple Marshmallows: Better seen, not tasted.
Corn Dog: My brother was in charge of that review. "I think it was the best corn dog I ever had."
Pocky Almond Crush: Good. Milky. Chocolate-y. Nutty. Addictive!
Lollipop shaped like kids faces: Couldn't bare to eat it. Too darn cute.
Pirate's Booty: Yum. Always, Yum.

Off to a shoot. Be back tomorrow with a Drink of the week.

I always wondered what the Hello Kitty soda tasted like. My daughter is always bugging me for it. I never let her have it because it looked like milk soda. I think that I will let her try it now. You have done a good deed! You have made a little girl very glad. She will get her Hello Kitty soda! (But not the marshmellows!)

Hi, I love the quirkiness of your blog, especially this post with you and andrew talking back and forth!

I think when you review something that is food orientated, there is one important note...ask yourself...did you feel satisfied?

Oh how your story of your chocolate loving fiend brought a smile to my face! In the chocolate hype after Easter of my boyfriend not receiving the chocolate Canterbury "Crunchie" egg that he oh so desired we stocked up on them on a post Easter grocery shopping sale. As he overdid himself on the illusive Crunchie he experienced a bit of a break out (at 28 apparently that still happens) and swore off the devil that is now the Crunchie. A few days later I was reaching in the freezer for a piece of the egg and felt a GIANT hole! "Who touched the chocolate!?" I texted him. Only to receive a message a few minutes later that read "Don't tell her that I told you - but it was Gus." (Our one year old cat).

That melty chocolatey blob would have tasted better if your hubby had a banana to wrap around it.. or the other way. And a handful of almond bits... yummm
