Latest Moan From You and Me 2025

Maybe so @pete except that it pandered to his ego and that's bad. A joke that backfired.

 

Just seems strange to me, was it a joke or not, I'd check that medal was not chocolate with a foil covering, before accepting it.

 

Beware @shiney! If it's US chocolate it has even less cocoa in it than the UK makes that have recently been demoted from being called chocolate because they have too low a percentage of cocoa.

Milka used to be good quality but they're busy in Russia now so off my shopping list and the same USA parent company owns Cadbury's, Côte d'Or (major disappointment for us cos we thought it was still Belgian), Toblerone and more.

 

Oh no, @shiney, does that mean mini Magnums are verbotten?

 

Well we might choose to think that, but he has a very limited sense of humour.
FIFA are experts at sucking up to leaders and regimes the sane world disapprove of Putin 2018, Qatar 2022 and now Trump 2026.

 

Does 100% chocolate exist?

 

It certainly does, I suspect it's for the committed only though.

 

I'm more interested in how do you give up chocolate

 

Just make sure you never buy any!
I eat very little but unfortunately I've found that Asda has a couple of extremely good vegan options. Especially a lovely dark one with dried orange in it.

I managed to completely give up crisps a few years ago. They have no nutritional value and lots of salt and fat; it also helps to think how much money you are forking over for a thinly sliced potato.

 

I do like a piece of dark chocolate, but can happily stop at one square. Salt and vinegar crisps, on the other hand, cannot be consumed individually.

 

2034 in Saudi Arabia might raise eyebrows as well.
