Making a note of those Jen - are they in most supermarkets?

Indeed, I deserve every scrap of that respect. grin

Not.

Only four years ago I could eat a bar a night! Fortunately for me - my sphincter muscle rebelled. Also I had huge problems caused by medication which punched a hole through my stomach, so no more red wine or spices or coffee or tea for a while either. All cured now, apart from the chocolate. Of course I would eat a whole bar a night still if I could, but then I would get no sleep. So eat away while you can.

You mean you don't have to eat the whole bar in one go? Respect!!! envy....

Galaxy. I eat one row a day and suck it to make it last.

A few years ago someone told me that the chemical composition of chocolate is only one molecule different from amphetamines. So once you have the taste of chocolate on your tongue you brain wants more............and that's how a box of chocolates vanishes in one evening. wink

It used to be Green and Black's chocolate.
I now find that Kallo dark chocolate rice cake thins can give the taste but without the calories.

What. You put it in. And if it's coffee or orange you take it out and your DH has to eat it? confused

Eurgh! You could just chuck it out. grin

But not the coffee or orange ones - if I get one of those my husband gets the remains - bleurgh

(The rest though - yum)

Revels for me too, Elegran. I'm so relieved it's not just me!

Ana Mon 09-Feb-15 21:32:42

Nothing.

Chocolate raisins.. can't resist em.

Elegran Mon 09-Feb-15 21:24:16

Revels. If I buy a pack I finish them all, so I have to restrict myself to the smallest pack in the range.

I had never eaten chocolate buttons until my 2 GSs introduced me to them and I am now addicted. hmm

What are you addicted to ?
