Buzzstuff: Who knew?

November 11, 2004

Who knew?

I'm a very busy guy. I don't mean work-wise, I mean candy bar-wise. If I'm choosing a candy bar for myself I want it all - chocolate, almonds, peanuts, crispy-stuff, a little cookie perhaps, some caramel, loads of nuget (nueget? newgut? niewguette?), all covered with coconut and crushed walnuts! Yeah! That's my kind of candy bar!

So imagine my dissapointment when all I find in the house yesterday on my chocolate hunt was a few bars of Hershey's Milk Chocolate. Just chocolate. No nuts. No crunchy. No chewy. No happy.

But what's a boy to do when he really wants some chocolate. I did what you would do. I ate the damn thing.

Oh my sweet gentle jesus!

Suddenly angels appeared and all was right with the world. Birds sang and children laughed. I felt that I was in heaven, or at least Honolulu. I mean, Wow! Who knew that chocolate, just chocolate, tasted so good?

Whaddya mean, you knew? Why didn't you tell me?? Sheesh!! I'm always the last to know everything.

Well, if you'll be so kind as to excuse me, I believe I have a date with a candy bar.

You mean you didn't know, Buzz?

I never seen angels when I ate a chocolate bar, but I do see angles and hear birds sing when my big brother gives me hard newgys to my head, and that hurts!

Remind me to send you a bar of Special Dark with your holiday package, this year.

Chocolate snobs will tell you that Hershey's isn't really chcocolate.

I'm not one of them.

I'm not a big fan of the candy bar for a chocolate fix. I dig a good truffle now and then. But the plain old chocolate bar, I must admit, is pretty freakin' good in a s'more roasted in my fireplace.

there's a chocolate factory called Scharffenberger in the bay area that makes the absolute best chocolate i've ever tasted -- it'll make you forget all about Hershey's. their dark chocolate with a glass of good Merlot or a Cab is enough to kill for. mmm......

if you see angels when you eat Hershey's chocolate, i'll be curious to see what happens if you eat Godiva chocolate. that stuff is like little chocolately chunks of heaven. mmmm.

you have been to Hershey Park, right?

I live in "chocolate city." That means the Nestle factory is down the road. Everytime I go outside, it smells like all the neighbors are baking brownies.
I like all your candy bar ingredients except for the crispies. They just waste too much space. More chocolate!

Since you've been on vacation, I've heard about baking cookies and now eating chocolate candy bars. Sounds like you are not only taking a vacation from work, but also the diet!!!! You need to be supervised, don't you?!?!? Hey, how's that bathroom coming along??
