I have a feeling I may disappear from your Xmas card list forever with this comment but, as a hazelnut lover, I'll see your topic and raise you Nutella every time
No mention of Brazil nuts? They give me a sore tongue for some reason. You’ve got to love an almond, although pre-shelled of course. Presented in their husks they make pistachio cracking a stroll in the park. 0:2
The coconut is the king of nuts. It has milk, it has flesh. You can grate it. You can use it to flavour drinks or food. And you can use the shell to make clip-clop hoof noises to remind you that Vardy is a donkey.
My favourite nut related song is “Nutbush City Limits” by Ike and Tina Turner. Although I quite liked the tune from the old Cadburys advert for “Fruit and Nut “ that was based upon Harry Belafonte s’ Day O. 2-1
Nut/legumè, I don’t care. They’re gross whatever. Peas and runner beans probably want no association with peanuts and should campaign to remove them from they’re extended family.
This leads to these questions: Chocolate, put in the fridge so that it slowly melts and coats your mouth with it’s flavour when you eat? or Left out on the side so it to melts into a squishy unidentifiable mess that ends up all over your hands instead of your mouth? And White chocolate, is that the real reason that white dogshit has disappeared from our streets?
As wonderful as the coconut is, and it truly is, it unfortunately is not a nut either. It is considered a stone fruit or drupe by botanists.
Loving the Leicester/nut/chocolate preview mix. Whilst I appreciate that allowing fridge chocolate to melt gradually in your mouth has its merits, it is made to be eaten at room temperature, where the creaminess and flavour is at its best. It is made to be eaten rather than sucked, although the latter is preferable to eating squidgy melted chocolate in the summer. As for nuts, the macadamia is king. They are expensive but subsequently a real treat by way of an occasional purchase. Peanuts, cashews and pistachios are up there but just below macadamias and hazelnuts are best confined to eating in chocolate. However Cadbury's Whole Nut is an under-rated pleasure. Oh and 2-2.
Can we borrow celtics banner "you traded immortality for mediocrity, never a celt always a fraud" And change it to "you traded mediocrity for mediocricty with no integrity, never a horn always a fraud". Theres some great chant opportunities, I really wish I was going to this one. Also listen out for the pre game songs if in the ground early enough. Same old Brendan, no integrity.
Never! There's even a song for cheese called 'Munching On Together' I heard it last night. 'Munching on together. Something,something else. Munching on together. We are cheese,cheese,cheese'.
You've sucked me back in. Nutella is one of mankind's greatest inventions, and I don't care if 40 orangutans are killed per bottle for the palm oil. Pancake day next Tuesday too, Nutella + whippy cream = ambrosia of the gods.
Chocolate in the fridge serves no purpose other than lengthening the time it takes to consume it. It seems to cause the flavour to bleed out. Chocolate at room temperature every time for me. However has set me thinking. If you put a Lindor with the runny centre in the fridge, do you get the best of both worlds ? Trying this now.
Dry or honey roasted peanut for me or those straight off the tree peanuts in the shell. They always taste good. Fiddly though like a pistachio. Which taste great. And my favorite ice cream / pudding associated nut. All other nuts I'm a bit "meh" to.
Awful stuff. Full of nasty palm oil and sugar. You should try this instead https://www.mr-organic.com/food/spreads/dark-chocolate-and-hazelnut-spread 1-2.
That was for Whole Nut. Nuts, whole hazelnuts, Cadbury take em and they cover dem in chocolate. Fruit and nut was to the tune of Dance if the Reed Pipes from The Nutcracker, Tchaikovsky.
I know there are a so many good reasons why I should find an alternative to Nutella - & I have tried, really I have. My latest foray into the world of Nutella alternatives was the GU chocolate and hazelnut spread. All these anti-Nutella chocolate spreads are great - better for my health, better for the environment. There is only one problem with them. None of them taste any good.
Anything that gives you the drupes is not good. Therefore coconuts are not good. Another reason they are not good is because they taste horrible. So does the 'milk'. Therefore not good. Plus you must never go to sleep under a coconut palm. Therefore not good. They do float in the ocean, however, which is quite a good trick, especially when Hawaiian slide guitar music is playing. Overall, though, not good; which is why Bounties are horrible. Note: Is it a slide guitar or something else?
Anybody who really wants to lux out on the chocolate front might like to go to Rumsey's in Wendover. Ask for the House Hot Chocolate. It is a chocolaterie and they do know what they're doing.
