Quetzalcoatl chocolate
Bought a E.Guittard bar of about 3.5 ounces last week, and this is an excellent blended chocolate 72% cocoa mass. I subsist on Trader Joe´s 72% cocoa solids bar in the Pound Plus version. The E. Guittard bar is about 5 times the price of the TJ´s and if I was very well off I would switch to the Guittard bars. The Guittard bar is much smoother than the Trader Joe´s product which can sometimes seem as though the cocoa beans were over-roasted. Both are blended chocolate but the Quetzalcoatl bar specifies its beans were grown in the ¨Ring of Fire" countries near the Equator, Anillo del Fuego Blended chocolates says Gary Guittard. E.Guittard was founded in San Francisco about 1868 and since has moved south on the San Francisco Penisula, to the city of Burlingame, As with most fine things, chocolate has its season. There is a simple memory aid that you can use to determine whether it is the correct time to order chocolate dishes: any month whose name contains the letter A, E, or U is the proper time for chocolate. -Sandra Boynton, The time for chocolate: you have chocolate and are awake!

It is by the beans of cacao that the thoughts acquire speed, the thighs acquire girth, the girth become a warning. It is by theobromine alone I set my mind in motion. --from Someone else's Dune spoof ripped to my taste |
