Hee hee! Yeah, years ago my then housemate Liz and a couple of her
girlfriends bought a bunch of stuff to make chocolate chip cookies,
including some generic chocolate chips and some genuine Nestle's
yellow bag chocolate chips. Of course there was much eating of the
ingredients as the cookie batch making progressed, and we all pretty
much agreed that the Nestle's chips tasted better than the generic
ones, but we were eating them both!

I then decided to include chocolate with pizza and sex, when it came
to things that are REALLY good when they are good, but still pretty
good when bad! ;-)

Bryan of course disagrees, but as a probable sufferer of Narcississtic
Personality Disorder, he would now, wouldn't he?
