maybe its just me - it usually is - but i wonder sometimes what people are thinking when they add chocolate chips to things that normally would NOT have them or IMHO, don't NEED them. for example, sprinkling some chocolate chips on your ice cream - good! adding a few to melt in your coffee or add some extra chocolatey zing to your hot coco, OK, i'm good with that but lately some of my favorite things have been invaded by over-enthusiastic chocolate chip sprinklers such as banana nut bread - already full of yumminess; homemade pancakes - again, already delicious and with the syrup, do you really need to add something more that's sweet? and now, the latest victim of the wide spreading fad - banana pudding! alas, i will continue to indulge as these things are baked, cooked, and prepared and offered to me free of charge but when no one is looking, i'll be trashing them.................
trashing the CHIPS not the whole thing :)
ReplyDeleteI agree 100%...I also hate it when people put things in chocolate bars that don't belong. I've seen chocolate bars with bacon in them... YUCK... or jalapenos... no thanks.
ReplyDeleteeeewwwww! bacon in my chocolate? no thanks
ReplyDeleteIt was NASTY... some friends of mine raved about it so I tried it... Chocolate has never been so disgusting.
ReplyDeleteLast night I had chocolate with black currants however... enjoyed it with a glass of red wine... seems like a strange combo but it was terrific.
