It is their equivalent of Hershey or Nestle, and not particularly good IMNSHO, although it is better than Hershey. It is sold in supermarkets here. I admit a fondness for Mint Aeros, dating back to my schooldays in England. Since then, they've come out with an orange flavor that is even better. But the orange is not available here. |

I've never heard of it, but I do know the song that the name refers to. ![]() Personally, if just eating a bar, I prefer a GOOD milk chocolate. (Not Hershey!) But bars are not my favorite way to eat chocolate. I prefer ganache and truffles. I like ganaches for cakes to be made with good dark couverture, and truffles with a combination of milk and dark. The truffles I sell are usually a combination of two chocolates selected from a palette of three, all single bean origin El Rey from Venezuela: Gran Saman (70%, dark and earthy), Mijao (61%, dark and smooth), Caoba (41%, a milk chocolate with caramel notes that contains a lot more cocoa mass than most milk chocolates). I combine them differently depending on the flavor I'm aiming at. Most of them are dipped in Mijao, although a few milk chocolate ones are dipped in Caoba (Peppermint Mochaccino, Latte Amaretto, and Mint Julep). In my experience, people talk a lot of BS about how they "only like dark chocolate." Usually while they are scarfing down my truffles made with half Caoba, dipped in Mijao. Normally I don't tell them what they are raving about. I recall one stupid young woman who was reaching for a second sample who actually drew her hand back when I told her that contained some milk chocolate. On that occasion I couldn't resist telling her that she wouldn't ever have known if I hadn't told her. The milk chocolate is there to give the ganache extra creaminess and a little sweetness. It doesn't dominate the flavor. |

I would eat it if it didn't mess with my GERD. I do like bitter foods and drink. I loved the old Tab with the saccharine. Loved that aftertaste. Love gin and tonic although I don't drink it any more. I do find it odd that some people say vegetables are bitter, especially broccoli. That doesn't taste bitter to me at all, just awful. Sometimes raw celery can be bitter to me. I still eat it. Unless it makes my tongue go numb, which it sometimes does. |
