    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.

The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    Sorry to disappoint you Al......

    There is some stuff in "Lidl" with a choice of 65%, 70% or 75 real cocoa.......

    Real dark chocolate, that sends your head in a spin and assaults your tastebuds with unbridled violence......

    Lami kayou.....

    I agree - Belgian chocolate is beautiful - especially Cote d'Or!

    Almost as good as their beers - that are - of course - world class!!!

    P.S. And their chips!!

    Ferrero rochers are - for me - a great disappointment compared to the Belgian rochers that are almost like a meal!! (Once again - Cote d'Or.)

    Coated choccy and bite sizes are preferrable. I would go for any chocolate except for the ffg: with caramel, soooooo sweet choccy, and with whole nuts.

    Chocolate made in the Philippines is, in my opinion, nothing like good chocolate. In fact, it is bloody awful!! (Sorry everyone from the Phils. As I said - just MY opinion.)

    On the rare occasions that I can afford choccy here, I stick with Toblerone and Cadbury's.

    That's true. I couldn't agree for more. I sent loads of chocolate back home. from Cadbury to Lidl's brand. But the last time I spoke to my sister in preparation of sending balikbayan box to them. My sister said don't send us Cadbury but send us the LIDL choccy cause it's more delicious compared to Cadburys. Lol, I am happy cause what they asked is alot cheaper.

    No, me too. Hersheys is a poor excuse for chocolate imo.. It's like cooking chocolate that didn't quite make the grade.

    Galaxy! Now that is a chocolate!! Granted, it's a bit Girlie, but damn it's good..

    For ME [being a 'fruit:lol2:& nut(case)] it has to be Cadbury's! But it's too bly expensive to buy in the Phils ... I guess because it's imported there!
