I am a bit of a chocolate nut. I am also amazingly disciplined.
😉
Most mornings I start my day with a couple of small pieces of candy. One will always be a solid piece of dark chocolate. Therefore, I read John’s post with horror.
😯
I wonder. Are there enough chocolate fanatics? Would it be safe to lynch people who sell imitation chocolate?
🤔

Taking ownership of your life brings power to make needed changes. True freedom begins with reliance on God to guide this process and provide what you need.

I make my own chocolate. Four ingredients: cocoa butter, cocoa, raw honey, and vanilla extract. (Sometimes a little coffee extract as well.) All organic, all natural, and guilt-free because it’s actually good for you. My husband and my grandson say it’s the best chocolate ever.

I wish my lady loved chocolate as much as me. That would be a good reason to move.

I always look for “cocoa butter” in the ingredients list.
I was burned by “Godiva gems”….always loved Godiva, didn’t know they sold out and made a cheap version that wasn’t real chocolate!
But there’s even worse news. I read somewhere that chocolate is going extinct!
I guess the cocoa plant is kind of high maintenance, and with the huge demand we’re likely to see more fake chocolate, less real…and the real is going to get increasingly costly. 😦

When the price goes up, people tend to get ingenious. Should be interesting to see what happens.
I wonder if I can add a greenhouse to my little property and grow my own.

I do not wish to wax commercial here but I would suggest that anyone interested in getting the real thing for their chocolate dollars should check the labels on the product and make sure Cocoa is the first ingredient and that the presence of such fillers as soy lecithin is way down on the list. In the interim, you might want to check out the following list of resources claiming to sell only the real-est and the best-est! — https://www.coffeestrong.org/milk-chocolate/
