No, I just added your comment to the [expletive] list I have on you. Keep it up, dude. It's getting long. Real long.
Sweet. Thanks.

Did you know that I hate cats too?

Yeah, now I'm wondering if you really do.

The Festivus season is right around the corner. So glad we have Leroy back.

Agree on Ghirardelli. And on Hersheys too.

My local favorite is Enstrom's out of Grand Junction Colo. Their dark chocolate almond toffee is to die for - the only reason I'll agree to go the mall with Mrs Rad and carry her bags is because of their seasonal kiosk.

And I still miss Mavrakos' turtles. I grew up (and out) on those!

There's a local guy in Columbia who personally sources cocoa beans, roasts them, and then makes them into chocolate that is really extraordinary. I saw on his Facebook today that his chocolate is going to be sold at both the Central West End and Delmar locations of Pi Pizzeria. Make sure you St. Louis folks check out Patric Chocolate when you get a chance.

Taza Chocolate out of Somerville, MA.

Stone ground Mexican chocolate that's made right around the corner from me. There are worse smells than biking past that place.

My chocolate has tiny bubbles and imperfections, proof it was crafted by the honest, simple, hard-working indigenous peoples of wherever.
