Yes, it is. But it's more a spanish expression than catalan.

it is not chocolate, all the cocoa's been taken out, and what's the point of that?

Why would chocolate be unhealthy?

But they are both sweet. Surley it's opposite has to be savory/sour.

Good chocolate is not supposed to be sweet. It's a sad
fact of life that millions upon millions of people throughout
the world consider "chocolate" sugary, degraded junk
that is low in cocoa and high in additives. Good chocolate
(i.e. real, preferrably Belgian chocolate) should leave
a delightfully tart, nay bitter, taste in your mouth.
P.S. for Xavi: Again with the Colonialist attitude. Spanish
this, Spanish that. Soc Catala!!!!!!!!

I'd love to.

Without cheap wine this time.

Oh my, Xavi, that's not the Spanish hospitality I remember!
And how embarrassing for me that you remember that I spent
three days in Mallorca sick on cheap-ass wine.

You know when I first read the subject of this thread and didn't read that it had to be a food item.....I thought, Chalk.
I guess you could eat it if you really wanted to. |

I'm with you on this one Kathryn -the bread eaters can keep their sweet nothing pretend chocolate, give me the dark intense stuff.

What percentage are we talking about here, darwin?
Anything under 80 is not worth it.

I once bought a 99% chocolate. It tasted like dust.

Looks like you freaks are outnumbered. Now go and buy some Cadbury's Dairy Milk and taste some real chocolate.

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......

What do you mean keep it clean? Frankly I'm hurt, we're talking chocolate here - this is serious stuff. You never chew, you suck slowly letting it melt in your mouth so that you can fully appreciate both the texture and intense intoxicating flavour.
And Homer - how you can call Cadbury's Dairy Milk soap "chocolate" makes me wonder how you can sleep at night.

What's the opposite of chocolate?
