eNCANestle unveils method to boost cocoa yields as climate change hitsChocolate is traditionally made using only cocoa beans taken from inside the pod.

Can't go to someone's house empty handed. One more reason baking pays off. It is in fact LESS expensive than buying baked goods out and you know people will like what they're getting. My dad loves my chocolate chip cookies just as much as my son and husband do.

Love you, dad.

Popped into a Farmfoods (I have no shame) & they have Cadbury Moro choc bars which I haven't seen since I lived in Australia. They have middle Eastern writing on them. My memory is they were a bitike the old Aztec bars only smaller. Couldn't see the price. Might have to revisit. #chocolate #UK.

Okay I'm going to say I'm 100% convinced that my recent weight struggles were BECAUSE I gave up chocolate.

My work trousers are size 12. When I first got them, within the first few months, I had to take in the waist about 8cm.

Last summer I gave up chocolate and crisps. My weight ballooned until not only did I have to take out all the tucks in my waistband, it got so bad that I couldn't even zip it up anymore. I had to just lock the zip halfway.

Since giving up chocolate wasn't making me lose weight, a couple of months ago I went back to buying chocolate and crisps. My trousers now fit. I'm pretty sure I'm consuming more calories now than I was when I gave up (the only other junk I bought was the biscuits I have at breakfast). I eat pretty much the same meals in the same portions every day, I am a creature of habit. My tummy hasn't gone down enough to take in the waist again, but I can do up the zip comfortably. And I've been keeping chocolate in my room, so I'm eating a lot. 200g bar in less than a week.

Before I started eating chocolate again, I was having to basically skip lunch for several days to get any weight off my tummy. I would just play video games all day until dinner. If I didn't, it was back to not being able to zip up my trousers.

I don't know how this works. Has anyone else had such an experience? A web search brings up a study showing that eating chocolate doesn't make you gain weight, but nothing about it making you lose weight, or at least lose tummy fat (my weight never evenly distributes. I have twig arms, and all the weight goes to my tummy).

I played a chess tournament today in the Northern Tasmanian town of Latrobe. Latrobe was having it's annual Winter Festival, The Chocolate Festival!

I won the tournament, and the Chocolate Chess Set and Board that was the prize. But as I'm not a greedy bastard, I shared my prize with the other players 🙂

Mondira Ramann: "Endorian Chocolate, the Endorian Republic or Endoria is one of the states back home on Eodin. They have this incredibly tasty dried Chocol fish skin flakes that are covered in the Chocol fat. They aren't real fish like you would see on Ear... sorry Terra.
They have a lot in common with snakes, they share their skin every 3 Months so basically every 87 days.
It's ment to be food and shelter for their eggs and hatchlings but Chocols have an incredible reproductive rate & since we accidentally killed off their natural predator... so as an act of keeping the balance, the Endorians collect hatcheries, clean them and sell them on the market.
The Chocolate is covered with the hard oil or more accurate fat the fish uses to shedd it.➡️
