Serious question - think very carefully

Taking my life in my hands as this is bound to be a contentious issue and I foresee the deletions flying thick and fast…
Here goes

If you had to choose only one out of these to eat for the rest of your life - and the other never again, which would it be?

Cheese šŸ§€ or chocolate šŸ«

(And for the aficionados - which variety?)

I'm not sure if you mean to the exclusion of all other foods (i.e., never again eat anything except cheese or chocolate) or just that one could eat cheese but never chocolate, or vice versa?

I think I'd rather drop off my perch than have to eat exclusively one or the other!

But as ashamed as I am to admit it, I'm too addicted to chocolate as a stress reliever and mood lifter not to choose it over the much healthier cheese option, every time.

Oops, badly expressed.
Out of cheese and chocolate you can only eat ONE for the rest of your life
Is that clearer?

Chocolate. smile

Cheese. Strong Cheddar. It wouldn't bother me if I never ate chocolate again.

I love both so it’s a difficult choice, but I think I’d have to go with cheese. I cannot live without cheese. The variety is not important, because I love so many varieties, but I cannot imagine life without cheese.

I only ever eat chocolates at Christmas chocolate liquor's I can do without them. I like various cheeses especially with a lovely homemade chutney so that’s my choice.

Cheese - any soft cheese

Charleygirl5 Wed 14-Aug-24 01:21:25

Chocolate although I love cheese.

welbeck Wed 14-Aug-24 01:25:27

cheese definitely.
pref a rubbery kind, or mousetrap.
anything mild, and not likely to move about in the fridge when i'm not looking.

Cheese but why can't I have both!

CocoPops Wed 14-Aug-24 02:25:11

Cheese. British mature cheddar please.

Tuaim Wed 14-Aug-24 03:50:30

Definitely chocolate. Cadbury's Whole Nut to be precise.

Joseann Wed 14-Aug-24 05:26:34

Cheese.

sassysaysso Wed 14-Aug-24 05:36:15

No contest. Dairy intolerant so it's chocolate all the way, sadly only in small portions, can no longer binge on it which isnt a bad thing. I suppose. Was never a great cheese lover.

Doodledog Wed 14-Aug-24 05:41:14

There’s always one, isn’t there?. wink

NotSpaghetti Wed 14-Aug-24 06:17:46

Cheese.
An organic one... but I do like a variety.

Cheese, plain old Cheddar

LOUISA1523 Wed 14-Aug-24 06:26:20

I don't eat either so no choice to make

JackyB Wed 14-Aug-24 06:44:46

I have grown to hate the taste of chocolate over about 30% and never could stomach really dark chocolate - gives me the runs.

Cheese on the other hand - oooh yes. A runny brie, a crumbly salty pecorino, a strong Appenzeller, a creamy Roquefort. As long as it doesn't come straight out of the fridge and has had time to develop its flavour - yum!

Bridie22 Wed 14-Aug-24 06:44:51

Chocolate šŸ™‚

EkwaNimitee Wed 14-Aug-24 07:02:18

Wouldn’t be bothered if I ate neither again as I can’t eat most cheese nor am I a chocolate addict.
Now if you were to pose the choice of never drinking coffee or wine again…..!

kittylester Wed 14-Aug-24 07:02:40

Chocolate!!! I'm not an afficionado- anything Cadbury's will be fine.

Bonnybanko Wed 14-Aug-24 07:04:07

I love a variety of cheeses and chocolate I’ll continue to eat both forever (I hope)

downtoearth Wed 14-Aug-24 07:09:18

Cheese , cant remember last time I ate chocolate.

I love all cheese, soft garlic and herb, stinky blue, humble cheddar, prefer cheesey to meaty dinners.

Maybe come back as a mouse in my next carnation.
