Hey BFJ—I was mostly with you on the melons thing, but how the fuck do you not like mint and chocolate?

I've sworn off Facebook. What's the melon take? (Personally, I hate all melons (water, honey dew, cantaloupe..etc) and feel you should never, ever add melon to a fruit salad because melon is too dominating a flavor.)

Also, mint chocolate is gross. As is orange chocolate.

Don't @ me.

mint chocolate is good but it needs to be balanced. Melons and orange chocolate can fuck right off.

I just had a few squares of a jalapeno and chocolate bar and that was tasty though my mouth is en fuego.

Wow! You think you know a person.

A ripe cantaloupe is one of the greatest of all fruits. And orange and chocolate are tremendous together.

Is that orange-flavored, though? Or just regular chocolate shaped like an orange?

I would eat chocolate orange before chocolate mint and that chocolate orange just made me vomit in my mouth.

I think the dislike for chocolate and orange comes from getting the shitty ones in the sampler back in the day. I've not tried as an adult, but I don't really eat chocolate all that much. My sweet tooth is happy with pies and pie related part.

I don't know! That was at lunch, and I didn't want to buy anything frozen. I stopped at a different location on my way home and they didn't have the strawberries. The bananas are good!

Disgusting.

If you're gonna mix fruit and chocolate you gotta go cherry or raspberry. Banana and strawberry are acceptable as well.

Non citrus, basically. Those Brookside chocolate covered fruits and Sharri's Berries are outstanding.

And add bacon for good measure.

Nutella and banana is great too (especially in crepes).

Apple butter is great while you're taking the little samples at Vermont general stores and then you buy a jar and take it home and realize it's baby food

Anybody let me know if you can parse this:
ISO Market basket parking lot Sunday evening. There was a couple in the store shopping. The guy had some tattoos. The girl wanted to go back down another isle and the gentleman said he didn't want to go on another round. There was a guy in coveralls in line, face painted like a clown. There was an issue out in the parking lot that the couple witnessed. I'm looking to speak to the couple. If you see this please message me. Thanks
