You sure are an Ornery cuss feisty. I understand why you chose that particular user name it fits you to a T. My kind of person. I know how to use a thermometer I used to make candy remember. In case you were never an accomplished candy maker like myself thermometers are used all the time althya different type. Stick with me kid I’ll teach you all the finer things of cooking. Feel free to ask me any questions whenever you need help. I am here to serve.
You guys won’t believe this in fact I hardly believe it myself but I was at the grocery store the other day what a dreary miserable day that was but I bought some regular candy Which brightened my day immensely. which brightened my day immensely.
I was standing at the checkout counter and just happened to glance over and see a display of dark chocolate and of course my first thought was yuck, And I saw some 50% dark chocolate with sea salt and I was wondering if I could gag that down so I bought it and surprisingly enough it wasn’t too terribly horrible. Don’t get me wrong I’m not saying it was good by any stretch of the imagination. Do you by chance know if it comes in 20 30 40% dark chocolate?

@jakedduck1 Did somebody say candy?? I've tried dark chocolate with sea salt and bits of orange rind which wasn't too bad. My go to is Hershey chocolate with almonds!

@jakedduck1, Yup! I answer willingly to "onery cuss". In fact, it is an endearment considering some of the other monickers unabashedly thrown my way! Not to boast, but my early kitchen seductions were due to my passionate desires to make homemade candy. Only those long standing/stirring sweet successes 30-40 yrs later enticed me to happen into the kitchen to try a hand and hotpad for veggies and casseroles. I am bowed on bended knee in abject humility and awe at your astonishing bravery at the purchase of a sea salted, dark chocolate bar. Truly, your feats of courage leave the rest of us poor morsels in the dust. Guess we'll have to start stocking up before you begin stockpiling. Just to prevent a raid, I'll share that Ghiradardelli produces some heavenly sea salt, dark chocolate mint and melt in the mouth milk chocolate caramel candies too. Here's the deal: I'll share my mom's fab Divinity and Millionaire secrets with you if you'll let us know how your next rendition of thermometer tested baked chickie breast turns out. As for sticking with you, are you a believer in making popcorn balls and poppycock???
