my kid went on a work trip with me to cayman. wife also there. they beached it up while I worked (where “work” is defined as a sequence of meetings all day where I eat and drink very well).

the kit kats (canadian/UK) were her favorite. she and i both could notice a difference. had to explain to work that the 10 kit kats itemized on the hotel bill were “personal”.

I used to eat one practically every day, but my blood glucose level was way too high last time I had it checked, so I’ve cut way back.

Oh no Dove chocolate bars are the best! Don’t find them very often but when I do I buy them all

the lack of ferrero rocher is homophobic

40

Those are good. I was thinking of things you would get on Halloween, ferrerro rocher are more like high-end chocolates and similar to a box of chocolates you would get on valentine’s day. I consider that a different class than standard fare “candy”.

ferrero rocher is always disappointing to me. It looks like a big ball of chocolate and nuts, but then ends up being mostly air and is unsatisfying.

42

AIR?! it’s layers of deliciousness. there’s no air in it.

43

maybe I’m thinking of something else

44

i mean it’s about as airy as kit kat

45

there ain’t no air in space
