Thank you! Not yet, actually. Have heard it's supposed to taste better gradually, though... say, what's chocolate ice-cream like for a non-smoker? Cos, even for a smoker, tis yummy

See, you have to not have any chocolate for the next, say....10 weeks. Then you'll be tasting it again for the first time

You're welcome. Tell me please, what's the deal with women and their love of all things chocolate?

I've never met a female that didn't drool over chocolate.

I don't drool over chocolate lol

It's fine - I like all sweets but I'm not "into" chocolate.
I much prefer cheesecake or pumpkin/cheesecake...

10 weeks? Is that a typo?

Honestly, Jimminy, am pretty much ok with tasting it for the millionth I bought this sugar-free stuff recently and it was ok, but gave me tummy-ache Still reckon, though, that in America you don't get a great selection. May start smuggling care packages of chocolate over to y'all and will not eat all of it while in transit

Do you not like it?? You're right, though... it seems to be a predominantly female thing. Actually, a couple of years ago, a chocolate called Yorkie (big, chunky bar... and very delicious) started a campaign to make itself more manly. It aligned itself with truckers and changed the wrapping n stuff, n while it was mostly ironic, afaik, it actually worked! Then loads of feminists got bees in their bonnets (heh. Feminists with bonnets) and I think it was pulled.

My sister's female Yorkie is far more butch than our Shih-Tzu. He's a furry lump of squishy fluff looking for someone to cuddle with.


Did you ever receive your sugar free Reese's Pieces? If so, were they good?

What will happen to him when you move here, sis? He will go with you, yes?

They never arrived!! And the seller said she wouldn't send more OR refund me And I'd never leave bad feedback for anyone so all in all, *huff*! Bought them other bars, though, and they were alright.

Why can't someone just invent calorie-free chocolate?! How hard can it be?

Hi all! Sorry to butt into the middle of the conversation, GreenMunchkin invited me over to say hi, so...

Looking forward to getting t know y'all.
Yay!! Hullo there! Gosh, normally CC is really busy, but it's been quiet today... I hope you give us another chance to impress you with our awesomeness!

No, sadly he will stay here with my parents, at least for now. I didn't have 6 months warning of the move (someone is in a hurry) so the mandatory quarantine time would have put his departure 2 months beyond ours or he'd have to stay in puppy prison in the UK until the time required is fulfilled. He's rather old and truly a big baby, so I don't know how the flight would affect him, but I do know time in isolation would be devastating. If we move back up to Herts in the near future we'll send for him, but for now, we're in a flat and he's used to having his own yard with pet doors to come and go at will. Not that he's spoiled or anything.

Truly awful! Was the seller in UK or the US? I've also had a bad experience on eBay, so am not as keen on it as I used to be.

Perhaps stevia will become useful in produced foods in the near future. It's supposed to be sweeter than sugar and produce no ill effects like those of of sugar substitutes.

US. Bad seller. BAD. What happened to put you off it?

Nice. Now they just have to invent calorie-free cream. That's probably up to cows.

Not much to tell, lol, boring fella. Small town close to a city, work in sales, don't get out enough.

A Christian for 5 years, but I can't seem to settle on a church. I know I'm odd but I love visiting different churches, different denominations, and joining their worship. So I don't get to know the people in any one. That's not so good, I think.

As for finding CF, yay google!

And all these reps? Many to thank, A certain Munchkin especially!

Naw, have repped you a few times, but that's a meteoric rise in reps. It. is. AWESOME!

I don't know, you know. Like, I can't help but think that as long as we're having regular fellowship with Christians, it doesn't necessarily have to be the same ones every week. Have you noticed different churches have different styles of worship? Have only ever attended Charismatic churches, so the worship is fairly similar.

Will miss him awful. My goal is to get us quickly moved down to the harbor where we can have a garden and a view. We'll all like that.

Yes, the family home is near the Essex border, not too far from Cambridge. Lovely place with plenty of space to roam. I love it there and can't wait to move back, but first the place has to be remodeled. Guess who gets to make sure that happens.

What I ordered wasn't what seller described. PayPal managed to recover half my money, but I wasn't allowed to leave negative feedback. The seller was a thief and of course it was not a cheap item. Oh, well.

I'll bet your seller was wrong in addressing your package. It's a tricky business to send packages to the UK. I'm still waiting to see if the wedding invites I sent have all arrived.

Wow, so actually, we won't be that far away Humm... not sure whether you have to do it or whether you're crackin' the whip with hubby-to-be

Why weren't you allowed to leave negative feedback? That seems very, very unfair.

Don't want to worry you, but mine hasn't arrived yet...

Errr, no. He's the one who's paid to think. I'm the worker bee. Besides, if he were the manner of who would allow me to crack a whip on him, I'd have little use for him.

Why weren't you allowed to leave negative feedback? That seems very, very unfair.

That's how it is when both parites mutually settle a dispute, I guess. I filed a grievance against him and by his reaction, his guilt was evident to everyone, so they dealt with him, I'm certain.

Well, I could put in a package with various sugar free chocolates, if you like. Hershey's corporate site gives no indication of their offering Reese's Pieces without sugar, so I'm unsure where this person acquired what she was offering.

Have you heard of Dove chocolate? They make some wonderful sugarless treats.
