Hi there,
Yes indeedy, candy, one of the 5 major food groups, candy, cake, cookies. pies & pastery.
A member says I have unsophisticated taste buds, I think one reason is because I like milk chocolate better than that hideous dark chocolate.
“I've tried dark chocolate with sea salt and bits of orange rind which wasn't too bad.” But it probably wasn’t something you like to have again, right?
Anyway it’s nice to know I have company. I love Hershey with almonds too. I have a 5 pound Hershey bar but it doesn’t have almonds in it. If you live in central California come on over and we can have a ball scarfing that sucker down. I have tons of candy that’s one thing I never run out of. When I tried the dark chocolate I made sure that I had a milk chocolate chaser!!
Milk vs dark chocolate consumption
MILK DARK
Teen 13-17 88% 12%
Adults 18-44 85% 15%
Adults 45+ 71% 29%
This chart is proof positive some people dont get any wiser as they age. I think the reason the 45+ age group went up a bit is because many of you oldies fall for all this health propaganda nonsense. Stick with me kids I’ll get you back on the right track!!!
Take care kids,
Jake

Being a senior, I thought the route was to chase a sweet with a salty and then repeat...and repeat...See we olde dowgs can learn or at least try new tricks!

@jakedduck1 Yes indeed give me Hershey's anytime! For me the dark chocolate is too bitter. I put mine in th freezer these days because of summer temps in New Mexico. At one time I lived in California mostly L. A.. Was going to visit friends there but COVID hit. Where in central California r u located?
Sorry to hear ur "chef" didn't work out. You have a good sense of humor about it and life in general.
