Not good enough for the Vegans, I guess. 14% of the population, according to some.

If I'm going to blow my blood sugar out of whack, I'm going to do it with 'the real stuff'.

You beat me to the obvious, proudly labeling a product made out of plants as "plant based". That's like labeling cotton candy as "sugar based"

I guess they can't make them any worse. Those peanut butter cups are awful.

You can milk corn by holding its ears. You can milk a potato by dotting its eyes. You can milk a rose by holding its hips. You can milk a daisy by pumping its petals. You can milk a sunflower with a sun lamp.

Just comparing what is sold as 'chocolate' today, compared to the stuff of old, or if you are in an indulgent mood some of the more expensive stuff, it has a mild, waxy flavor.

A friend in Scotland has occasionally sent another generous friend here some of the good stuff from over there. Said generous friend shares.....

I have a certain health condition that suggests to avoid chocolate. Only now, after 2+ years of no chocolate, tomato and other acidic foods, have I been able to have the occasional RPB. When you haven't had any, even those taste 'good'.
