If you're just eating a bar of chocolate then I totally understand not being into dark chocolate and preferring milk, it's like preferring a lager over a dark beer. Just different main flavor notes.

But pretty much any super sugary candy product doesn't really need milk chocolate if it has other sweet stuff, you usually don't get any bitter notes. The Sanders dark chocolate caramels are a great example of that, as are the dark chocolate coconut almond things. I don't think I would have thought they were dark chocolate products if they weren't labeled that way.

I've never had them but apparently the Trader Joe's peanut butter cups are the same way, people swear by the dark chocolate ones over the milk regardless of chocolate preferences.

This is a great way of explaining how I feel about dark chocolate. I don't care for it by itself, but the Sanders dark chocolate caramels are great. I still like the milk chocolate ones better, but the dark chocolate ones are fantastic.

I had an older cousin who told me if you don't want to get pickpocketed, don't put your wallet in your coat pocket or your back pocket. Put it in your front pocket, and it's almost impossible to get got.

He was uh, an interesting dude, so I think it's probably good advice

I don't know how far out of Colorado the Enstoms toffee goes but it has the same effect if being too goddamn good to ever buy because I will eat two at a time every hour until it's gone.

I bought a bunch of clothes off of COSTCO DOT COM, including matching shackets for me and my dad. This is a new past time I've established, since we're roughly the same size and have similar tastes in shackets.

I worry what you just heard was...
"Give me a lot of b4con_n_3ggs."

What I said was...

Is the quesadilla kit better, worse, or equivalent to the street taco kit?

I really liked the quesadilla kit, considerably more so than the street taco kit. Like it's been said, there is quite a lot of chicken in the quesadillas. I did a quick pan fry to crisp them up and melt the cheese a little and gently caress me sideways they were tasty. It's also handy that they come with a couple small cups of guac, one of salsa, and another of sour cream.

Oh no, I'm so sorry, it's the Moops.


Went to church this morning and I nearly filled up two carts. Lots of (floor) meat and veg on this trip, and I'm surprised the grand total did not have a comma in it. I got some of the Kirkland flavored seltzer water to compare with Lacroix, and got the last medium-sized Jachs flannel shirt / waffle-knit thermal shirt combo they had. Rounding out this pilgrimage was mandatory two-G kim chi and a whole bunch of snacks for my kids. Costco should have a daycare setup up front like IKEA imo
