99% cacao!

Lindt has released a 99% cacao bar!

Not available in the US, as far as I can tell, and I'm not sure if it would even be good (I mean, 99% might be a wee bit extreme, flavor-wise). But I'd gladly try this at least once.

I've had 99% cacao stuff once, in France. It draws all of the moisture out of your entire body, via your mouth (or at least that's what it feels like). I adore chocolate of pretty much any kind, and even I thought it was a bit much...

It'd be tart as hell, almost like chewing on a bean. which isn't bad at all, I pick at them when I'm making a batch of chocolate. I'd offer you a couple beans next time I do a batch of chocolate so you can see what that lindt bar would taste like.

Love the icon. Sorta almost don't want to know where it's from, it's best as pure madness.

I'm sure it's not something I'd want to do often, but I think I'd have to try it once, just to see.

I'd love to try 'em.

I got another wedding to do in march, so sometime around then I'll do an order. I'll get your P.O. box from you then.

Do not question the Titmouse of doom, his origins are a secret best left in the violent history of the planes of leng where the curious must narfle the garthak to approach the alter of the titmouse genesis.

Oh, it's been available for a while; we bought a couple bars a couple of years ago. We might still have some lurking about the cupboards. I think we first saw them in Belgium, but I believe they're in England now also.

It's, um, really good for baking. Not so good for eating. And this comes from two people who love dark, dark chocolate. The 85% is still excellent, but the 99% is a bit too much.

Rock! Thanks!

I suspected as much. But if I don't try it, I'll always wonder.
