[Closed] Lindt 90% cocoa

you should try the 95 then 😉

Or 99%.
It comes in tiny pieces and good job, as nice as it is one or two at a time is enough for me.

I find it better for cooking with than eating.

Just bitter dryness. No ta.

Ooooooooooooh need chocolate now! I'm lucky enough to have a choc specialised shop in my villiage its VERY pricy but its a few pieces at a time stuff makes your knees going weak!

The 99% stuff needs to be taken with good coffee - square of choc on tongue, slurp coffee, hold in mouth...

I can't stand it neat though. 85% is about my limit.

I love high cocoa content chocolate. Mustn't have it in the evening though or I don't sleep!

FTFY.

Agreed with the whisky thing
Single malt and lindt for my wild nights out (in) from now on
Rock n roll

A good red wine and a strong chocolate are also top notch.

[i]"Chocolat a croquer"[/i] inside a chunk of baguette takes some beating imo.

Illicit easter egg scoffing beats that sort of thing hands down

Ah, but the smell of whisky makes me want to vomit, due to the consumption of large amounts of Drambuie on my 21st.

Trust me, vomit and 99% Lindt isn't a good combo.

Comparing whisky to Drambuie is like comparing 90% Lindt to a Kinder egg. That's a little unfair...!

beej, you'll grow out of it

I was ill for about 3 days on whiskey when I was about 20

took until my 30's but now I like the stuff again

I hate the stuff.

Wtf is this fascination with ever increasing cocoa mass percentages? More is not necessarily better.

Why not just eat cocoa powder from the tin with a spoon?
Even better, I've got a cake here that's 95% flour! Really amazingly hardcore, yeah!

Minging.

😆

It's not just about the cocoa content and it's not about being hardcore.
It's about it being bloody delicious. You hate the stuff, that's great. But then you eat cakes with 95% flour and that sounds pretty minging to me. I'll stick with my chocolate thanks.

Yorkie bars are still nicer though.

You're all freaks. All of you.

Or Double Deckers.

for me anything more than 60% is too bitter except perhaps as choc chips in a muffin

Double decker, now we're talking.

My favourite was the Maverick bar. They were delicious.

hardcore

80% was too rich for my blood but I take my hat off to you

Ah Mol, if I wasn't already mad about you I'd fall for you all over again...

Lol, because I am slagging people off on the internet for having different tastes to me? 🙂

Well, not much that...but because your tastes mirror mine (or at least a bit) when it comes to chocolate.

Come home for lunch...and bring some chocolate...

the lindt with the gooey raspberry filling is supoib

its not supposed to be for girls anyway 😉

I do like dark chocolate though, just not that stuff.

I could bring chcolate but I'd have to sit and watch you eat it since it's not treat day...

Grow out of it? It was 19 years ago...

I appreciate that there is a huge difference between Drambuie and a decent whisky, but it's a smell thing rather than a concious decision. I might have tried one or two whiskys since the "incident" but they just turn my stomach.

Surely everyone has a "never again" spirit? Normally Pernod.

High % dark chocolate with chilie powder in it. Sounds so wrong but the taste mmmm 😆

I could bring chcolate but I'd have to sit and watch you eat it since it's not treat day...

But it might be if you bring some chocolate home 😉

beej

it was Jack Daniels that made me ill, and now I've got a taste for single malts, so you could be right, although for most of my 20's I couldn't touch any kind of whisky or whiskey

I do have a 'never again' food. Got bad food poisoning from a doner kebab and even the smell makes me feel a bit gippy now

i can wait until midnight then...
