Hmmmm? I'm going for celery.
Opposites are usually similar in some ways. ie Up and down are directions, black and white are colours. So I guess it has to be a foodstuff, but all humorous and not so humourous thoughts gratefully received.

I wonder if there's a gender connection here. Are women more likely to enjoy dark chocolate?

No, he explains why it tastes best.

Wait... it takes a geneticist to tell you what tastes best?

Hmmm… I like both milk chocolate and dark chocolate but I've been told that chocolate preference is actually genetic… That some nations usually, in average, prefer milk choc. and others dark choc.… Don't know if there's any truth in it though. Could be just a matter of habit. I believe we have some genetics experts round here somewhere, yes?
[edit] oh man another typo... it's "genetics experts" not "genetic experts"... though I'm sure some of you were already born with all the knowledge of this universe... |

Chocolate, in its natural state, is bitter. I prefer sweet milk chocolate, but I don't consider myself a huge chocolate lover. For what it's worth, I don't like coffee, either. I guess I'm not a fan of bitter foodstuffs.
Anyway, I think I've come up with the actual opposite of chocolate: tofu.

darwin, that's nonesense! 85 percent is starting to be in the right neighborhood. btw, you never quite explained what the "add-on" is, thereby leaving it to our dirty imaginations.
Homers, I am just going to ignore you and your wimpy
milk chocolate.

My "add-on" skills are overrated.
Let me set the record straight: I prefer dark chocolate, but 85% cocoa is going too far. |

darwin, I would never criticize a fellow forumite, especially not
someone I respect as much as I do you, what with your
attentive parenting, not to mention your award-winning bird research and your "add-on" coital skills. But, jeez, Surfer's right:
you don't chew chocolate! That is such an anti-aesthetics
American attitude and one I hope you will put behind you
now that you know to savor and let melt in your mouth
the smallerst, darkest bit of cocoa goodness you can find.
Again, don't take this as a personal attack. I am merely pitying
you for all the years you have wasted chewing milk chocolate.

Thank you for fighting the good fight in my absence, Surfer.
You, too, Llamadance. I was away from home for a couple
of days, slowly savoring the intense taste of dark Belgian chocolate.

Ummm, I think I may be heading to the Dark side. See you later guys. |

And Homer - how you can call Cadbury's Dairy Milk soap "chocolate" makes me wonder how you can sleep at night.

Better chuck my tuppence in for the dark chocolate 'freaks'. It really is so much better than milk. Maybe the opposite of real chocolate is milk chocolate......
