Not mentioning any names but I know someone who bites into a chocolate and if she doesn’t like it, puts it back in the box. Guide? She don’t need no stinkin’ guide. And up to a point neither do I.
We had a chocolatier here in Madison, Wisconsin, that hand-made its chocolates. Each one had a thin drizzle of chocolate on top in the form of a letter (C for caramel, V for vanilla, N for nougat, etc.), so you could tell what was inside just by looking at it.
Jim Meddick’s comic Monty is very creatively written. I read RobotMan, Monty’s predecessor was a children’s comic, it would be great if he wrote 20 brief Children’s stories, got numeric ratings from actual children on them, and then drew quick rounded graphics line drawings of them like C. Thurber and approached children’s book publishers with the 3 of 20 stories children liked the most. I’m sure comic artist Jim Meddick is doing well financially but i would be thrilled to pay a virtual assistant to send out his works to publishers worldwide. If this reaches Mr. Meddick i mildly and politely urge him to write me treonsverdery at gmail

I’m surprised Moondog offered it to you Pilsner! I didn’t think any candy would get away from him :-)

I liked the people at work who would stick their finger in them to see what they were and then leave them sitting there.

First of all, why the sunglasses indoors? Moondog doesn’t know jack, he’s just messin with Pilsner.

Reminds me of the old joke about the city slickers walking into a cow pasture…

I always knew I’d eat the whole box, anyway. So, there was no point in spoiling that “first bite surprise”.
(My chocolate-eating days are behind me. Carob is a substitute but you have to put so much sugar in it that it is counterproductive.)

Usually, you can remember the shape, or the decoration on the bad ones, even if it’s been a long time since you had any.

I prefer to use a knife and cut them in half to see what’s inside!

Choosy parakeets get few treats, Pilsner. Just a friendly word of advice. Moonie is trying to be nice to you, for all his unsanitary ways….
