hey babe 😉

Alright, will someone please just tell me once and for all who on earth is responsible for this "Cao-Cao" nonsense? Is it some vintage throwback chocolate bar I missed out on, or is it some new junk they're pushing now? What even is it?😁

And don't even get me started on those raisins... they're absolutely revolting, just like any other kind of candied fruit, honestly...

Read closer, I already told you what 🙂

Check this link for the details.

Total old-school. It’s been around forever, even back when I was hitting the halls of high school... 😁 They updated the wrapper recently and threw in some different flavors. Honestly, it's decent, even if I don't go crazy for it.

🙏 Finally, a voice of reason.

Ugh, don't even get me started on these local bakeries here in Chicago. It’s a total rip-off, honestly... you feel like you're getting fleeced every single time. 😁 And by the way, can we talk about that tacky-as-hell packaging? It's an absolute eyesore. 😁

But listen, if you want the real deal, go grab some Krispy Kreme donuts—they are hands down the best! 🙂

It’s true that Cao Cao is an award-winning product, to be fair. 😍

But honestly—why on earth did they make the new packaging opaque? It was the only way to check if the chocolate coating had started to bloom...

I can't even resist a basic, unwrapped frozen treat when I hit the grocery store early in the morning. Those elementary school nostalgia trips just get to me...

Exactly. 😈 😈 😈

Are raisins actually the same thing as dried cranberries?

If they are, then I'll be a monkey's uncle—that’s not candied, goodness gracious! I suppose.

I can't quite recall the specific name for them, but those dried cranberries dipped in chocolate are basically like little gourmet candies; they're absolutely delicious. 😍

And there's this one thing my mother used to make, a fruit cake filled with dried cranberries and chunks of walnut, and it is just as wonderful. 🙂

The cafeteria rules are absolute. 🙏There’s this thick layer of chocolate that crumbles all over everything—honestly, once you take your last bite, you're left just vacuuming up the remains of that homemade-style chocolate. I’ll admit it: I just love those hated cafeteria treats. Has my palate completely failed me? I don't think so. I think you guys just obsess way too much over those overpriced corporate brands.😁

My top 5 favorite cafeteria meals:
1. BEANS
2. WINE GULASH
3. MEATBALLS IN MUSHROOM SAUCE
4. MEATLOAF BITES
5. DUMPLINGS (IF THEY'RE WELL-COOKED + CREAMY)

ya:raan said:Since I'm a guy—so I can't really wear them myself—the first thing I'll do when I finally find someone to settle down with is buy her some tees:
1. Slayer (the old school logo version, fits great, slim cut, black with silver-white print, honestly pretty nice)
2. Mayhem (same deal as above, just with the white logo)

Hey there, babe 😬

Dead Carrot said:As for that marzipan thing, I’m going to take a massive leap of faith and assume you’re joking... 🙂

I’m not kidding about this. It’s an absolute disaster... I’d honestly rather eat pancakes topped with mayonnaise at this point. Unbelievable... 🤔 Well, I ate it. And it's perfectly legal... 😁

Sean Lee7 said:Raisins on their own are garbage. Seriously, one of the worst things ever invented. Unless they're paired with marzipan.

🙏 🙏 🙏

I'm just sitting here eating this fruit bar and it's incredible. The raisins in this chocolate are a total game changer.

Harold Wright54 said:I just have a massive soft spot for all those cheap, sugary snacks that everyone else seems to hate.

SO CORNY! 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏

Grape clusters are fantastic—they basically take care of themselves—but marzipan? Not so much... there’s just no way something invented by a rigid German can ever truly be right. 😁

Give me a break... nothing beats chocolate made with
.
Even if you only get a tiny bit of benefit from it 😁

I mean, that’s not cafeteria food—Corny is actually a decent, high-end chocolate bar.

gentlepuma20 said:Look, that’s definitely not cafeteria food. Corny is actually a decent little boutique chocolate if you know what you're looking for.

Corny basically went mainstream, in case you hadn't noticed. You can grab a couple in those snack packs, though they don't stay on the shelves for long...

then I'll probably just head over to the cafeteria🙂

gentlepuma20 said:Oh, that definitely isn't cafeteria food. Corny is actually a pretty high-end, fancy chocolate brand.

Well, maybe not anymore! I guess even the suburban kids can get their hands on it now. 😍
