Thanks, Vilco for the tips. I try to keep 72% chocolate for eating. I'm
out of anything over 72% except some Vahrona. I need to start looking at
some online catalogs for ordering before freezing winter arrives.

Do you know of anyway users of chocolate are going to keep tabs on the
unacceptable chocolate? I guess it will be just like the rest of the
products that are getting changed -- read, read, read.
