Weird! I planted some apple trees here about 20 years ago. I can't imagine having apples and never knowing the taste of apple pie.
Re: c 20:05, 30th Jul 2014 Minstrel 108.217.162.230 Action: Thread title (original 'Ivory Coast cocoa bean farmers taste chocolate for the first time') changed WTF Minstrel? C?!?
Denny, I was only teasing Minstrel. He has some sort of mouse problem. I know I could have changed the thread title back.
How perfect would it have been if he gave them a glass of Nesquik. That is the absolute bastardization of chocolate (that I can think of)
You know reading these old post makes me realize that I can be an asshole. Okay, I already know that but I just don't like to be reminded of it.
I thought it was bumped to show that now, 17 years later, Ivory Coast farmers are toothless, obese and suffering from diabetes.....all thanks to a massive chocolate addiction from 2004!
Well, at least this old thread will serve as a monument to your asshole-ry that will likely outlast all of us and will be a source of amusement to future anthropologists as the sift through the dregs of our digital conversations.
I love some forms of chocolate like fudge, chocolate butter cream frosting and pretty near any chocolate paired with nuts. Other chocolate such as chocolate chip cookies, unless they contain nuts, I don't care for. And while including forms that I like, let's add hot chocolate. Don't like chocolate ice cream of fudgecycles.
