  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Reese's peanut butter cups are probably my favorite. Really love candy that combines chocolate and peanut butter.

As a store brand, Almond Joy.

Bissinger’s is a chocolatier in my area. It’s been in business for decades. A little pricey, but their products are excellent. The truffles-in many varieties- are especially good.

Stay with dark chocolate if you’re going to experiment.
Milk chocolate doesn't play well with hops.

Thanks for the recommendation! Sounds great.

I love dark, milk, and white chocolate. I'm not picky at all. lol

I really love snickers too! I also love Kit Kats.

Fun fact: When I visited England, Wales, and Ireland, I realized British/European Chocolate and American chocolate are so different. I'm not sure how to describe the taste. American chocolate is almost chemically made if that makes sense.

I definitely had Maltese and Toffee Crisps when I was in England! It tasted different.

My aunt is grieving her husband of 60 years passing away, and she recently told me he called her his "Kit Kat"

I think I should send her a box of kit kats of various flavors!

Thing is, Payday isn't chocolate, or at least the original isn't. I think I've seen a newer chocolate covered version in a store. The original was salty peanuts held together by some caramel-like concoction. I've never actually had it with beer, but in theory, I think it could work. :)

I don't think I ever had a Payday bar. I guess I always assumed it was elderly people candy, lol.
Well it's a Payday bar. I assumed it was for working people. I think you're thinking of the Social Security bar.

Actually it was my favorite as a teenager. Haven't had one in ages though.

I used to love eating Baby Ruth bars as a kid. Personally, I consider that an elderly person's candy too. Based on my nonsense criteria.

Actually, Baby Ruth was my first taste of independence. Cannot remember how old I was, but the first time my parents let me travel to the gas station by myself I picked up a Baby Ruth candy bar. Did that frequently a lot back then. Sadly though... a few years later a kid did die going the same route I routinely took to get to the gas station. I know for her she actually ran back to her house to get change and on the way back to the gas station she was struck by a car. Not sure if she was getting a Baby Ruth candy bar or not.. lol.

That's sad and always a reminder if you ever see a baby Ruth again:(
Was that named after babe Ruth?
