Not all chocolate is the same – you need gourmet chocolate
Are you are gourmet chocolate lover? I am. I just love the taste of good gourmet chocolate. I just do not eat any type, for myself I prefer the dark milk creamy kind and it tastes really good.
In the past few years, as I have become more older in years, not to mention grayer, I have become even more stubborn about the gourmet chocolate I eat. If it is not the best, I do not want it.
Last year I had the opportunity to visit Switzerland, the home of wonderful gourmet chocolate and I bought for myself plus for friends and family. We all enjoyed it. So often though I find what is available in regular grocery stores not worth buying and eating. I have developed a taste for the best.
I recently was in the airport in Singapore and in one of the duty free stores discovered a huge bar of Swiss dark milk gourmet chocolate, which I simply had to purchase as a gift. I was not sure how it would taste, but it was from Switzerland so I took the chance.
When I arrived at my destination I gave it to my brother as a gift and he said it was the only chocolate he had been able to eat in years. It definitely was gourmet chocolate. Then on the way back through Singapore, I made sure I purchased one for myself. He was right. It was excellent. I ate most of it by myself. My waistline was not too appreciative, but I enjoyed it.
Today, I only buy gourmet chocolate from certain specialty stores or if I see a quality Swiss one, like in the airport. Otherwise I don’t bother. The taste is not good enough. Its dark milk anytime anyday for me.
