I feel like I’m the only one in my life who holds this opinion, but I have never tasted a combination of chocolate and fruit that wasn’t significantly worse than the individual components.
- Chocolate covered raisins? Blegh.
- Chocolate dipped strawberries? I’ll eat the shell then the rest.
- Raspberry bits in fancy chocolate? You’ve ruined it.
- Candied apple? Just plain caramel please, no chocolate.
- Chocolate fondue? I’ll stick to the marshmallows and graham crackers, thanks.
- Gorp mix? I’m selecting handfuls with either raisins + peanuts or m&ms + peanuts, no blending.
Now I know taste buds are subjective, but how is it that folks will say a mixed bowl of m&ms and skittles is diabolical, yet happily chow down on other fruity chocolate combos? Give me my delicious fruit and chocolate - separately!
I am genuinely amazed that you have this opinion, and also that a significant number of other comments do as well.
I cannot even begin to describe how strongly I disagree with this, but I guess there just is a whole section of people who agree…
I… I want to cook for you, make something you’ve not tried before, show you the light lol.
If you don’t mind me asking, can you taste cilantro, or does it just taste like soap to you?
Do you like nutmeg?
